It can fit up to three lenses and a 13" laptop, and has four removable dividers so you can customize the bag to fit your specific camera needs.

A Compact Camera Bag
The Nylon Camera Bag from Christopher Kon is compact for smaller cameras or for when you're traveling without lenses. The front zipper pocket holds separate items that could scratch your camera, like keys and cards.

A Camera Bag with Extra Protection
The Poler Camera Cooler is actually both a cooler and a camera bag—just not at the same time. Its insulated outer layer adds extra protection for your camera, and its removable lens separator lets you use the bag as a cooler when you aren't carrying around a camera. The straps are made from nylon seatbelt webbing, adding even more protection.

The Claremont Leather Camera Bag from Lo & Sons is designed specifically to fit a DSLR with extra internal padding for protection. It can also fit a small extra lens and has a separate back zipper pocket, two front pockets for memory cards, and a hanging SD memory card holder.
