lowepro

Lowepro is a good name in camera bags.

I say this because being a photo journalist for a number of years, I needed a good bag, and I rely on Lowepro... The Nova 1 is an attractive, small (maybe a little too small all black bag. it has a strong shoulder strap, good stitching, and a comfortable feel and look. Maybe I would include more pockets for extra film cases, 'cause I always have lots of film... but for the everyday user that doesn't, it's a good investment, and not too expensive either! Lowepro= a name you can trust, coming from a camera expert...(self proclaimed) =)

I spent a bit of time looking at camera bags at a local camera store, and I found Lowepro to be the best quality bag I've seen for the price. In addition, all manufacturers have their own layout of flaps, buckles, zippers, etc, and I found Lowepro to have the most ergonomic and common sense setup.

Lowepro's Nova 1 is the perfect bag for Canon PowerShot G1 owners! I found the Nova 1 holds my Canon G1, an external flash, and all the stock G1 kit items (power cord, USB cable, camera remote, CF card, etc) snugly, but leaves plenty of room in the surrounding zippered pockets for other goodies, like extra CompactFlash cards.

As the bag is relatively small, it's not likely you'll be carrying around a lot of weight in the Nova 1. However, if you do you'll appreciate the Nova 1's very comfortable, padded shoulder strap.

If you find the Nova 1 does not precisely fit your size needs, there are a variety of other Nova Series bags available, both larger (Nova 2, 3, etc.) and smaller (Nova Micro or Mini).

Overall the Lowepro Nova 1 is a great bag!

This Camera bag is a good one. It works well with the Canon Rebel 2000 and the big pouch is large enough for the camera and the lens that comes with it. The flap pouch is good for things like lens tissue and other small things. And the pouch under the flap is great for glasses or film. The one problem that I have with it is that it is a little small. There is not much room for extra film, and I find the mesh poches almost worthless. I would give this 4.5 stars if I could.
