Re: DSLR Camera Case for Europe vacation

I'll be taking a vacation in France next September. This is going to
involve getting on& off airliners, on& off trains, riding bicycles and
walking miles over a couple of weeks.

I can't seem to talk myself into taking a point and shoot camera, which
means schleping a (yet to be chosen) Cannon DSLR and one lens (3.5 inch
Tamron 28-300). My wonderful Pelican case is out of the question.. way too
heavy.

So, does anyone know of a great case that is light, protective, on the go
"quick draw", with a strap that won't wreak my shoulder?

(I will also listen to opinions as to my sanity for wanting to carry a big
camera through France.) Good idea, or bad?



Hi,

If theft is a consideration, then try to get a small, padded soft plastic case meant for carrying baby bottles filled with milk. They often have drawings of babied or baby items on them, and are probably rather theft proof in that regard. Some even have compartments.

Bon voyage.
