camera bag

If loving the ONA Union Street DSLR Bag ($279) is wrong, then I don't want to be right. I mean, look at all these pockets! Sure, the waxed leather (coming in tan, smoke, and black) exudes a certain amount of masculinity, but the functionality of the bag — which includes moveable, padded dividers for your DSLR, up to three lenses, batteries, flash, spare SD cards, even your 15-inch laptop, and phone— makes it a lust-worthy item for geeks of all sexes. The Union Street bag is on pre-order now, but is expected to ship starting next week. It's the perfect splurge gift for the geek who has all of his gadget angles covered!

It's hard to find an iPad (or netbook) bag that can be used by a man or a woman. Some designs are either too strong or too feminine for either sex. However, this Envelope Bag ($60) brings to mind something both men and women can relate to: work. Resembling an all-too-familiar manila envelope that you see every day at the office, this bag isn't the first of its kind, but it does have some unique qualities.

Coming with enough room to store your iPad or your 11-inch MacBook Air, the Envelope Bag also stores your camera, cell phone, pens, and chargers in the handy pocketed insert. No more digging around in deep totes — you've got it all organized. Just like your office cubicle . . . right?

Camera bags and cases come in all sizes — just enough room for your point-and-shoot to DSLR carry-alls — but this fab Jill-e DSLR Camera Bag ($170) may be just the right size for aspiring shutterbugs that don't yet have a ton of accessories.

Coming in at 14-inches long by 7-inches wide, it fits your DSLR, an extra lens, and your battery pack, or some other small essential, like film for you old-school photographers. But the great thing is that this compartmentalized bag is great for moms and for travel as well — it's perfect as a carry-on, since you can adjust the inner padded walls to fit whatever you're carrying. What's more, the bag comes in three chic colors — bone, red, and black — and also boasts a removable shoulder strap, a matching pouch, and external pockets for loose items. The price is right for this kind of bag, so you know this is going on my wish list this holiday!

Sure, there's plenty of DSLR bags, cases, and other cuteness to tote your photography goods in, but have you ever seen one that looks this classy? The Kelly Moore Camera Bag ($250) is just that — classy — and has plenty of pockets to stash all your goods in for a day on the job: camera, flash, up to four lenses, cords, phone, keys, wallet, and spare batteries, all in it's chic 16x11 body.

Moveable inner dividers ensure that your expensive equipment can rest easily inside, while the outside zippers and pockets can tote all your other junk that usually lives in your bag. Bonus — these bags are water resistant, weigh just two pounds, and come in seven different shades of awesome. Are you in love yet? If not, check out some more pics below, and then see how you feel.

I've been drooling over the latest Canon DSLR to hit the market (even though I just threw down for the T1i last year), so of course while I'm dreaming of the new model, I'm also on the hunt for a camera bag that is worthy of its style, beauty, and power. The Alexander Wang Brenda Camera Bag ($425) may just do the trick.

The cross-body style will keep my camera safe, while the luxurious leather and silver chain accents will keep me in fashion no matter what the season. Sure, the price is astronomical compared to some of the other affordable and less pricey designer bags out there. But hey — it's Alexander Wang! What do you expect, miracles?
