Camera Bags & Cases

A digital camera can be a big investment. To protect your camera from damage, consider a camera case or bag. From large camera bags to small, compact camera cases, you’re sure to find something that fits your needs at Best Buy. When looking for the right camera bag, the size, shape and style are major factors. You may prefer the feel and comfort of a camera shoulder bag or a camera backpack. These types of bags, although larger, are great for storing lenses and other accessories.

The material of your camera bag is another consideration. For instance, a leather camera bag takes in all the adventures with you, showing distress marks and a patina. On the other hand, a nylon or canvas camera bag is highly durable and won’t show as much wear and tear. If you take a lot of pictures outdoors, a water-resistant camera bag would potentially be the right choice, as it keeps out the rain and other elements. 

Some camera bags hold only a camera, and don’t have room for accessories. If you have a lot of gear, think about getting a camera bag or case that will hold accessories, such as camera lenses and camera batteries and chargers, in addition to your camera. Keeping your gear safe from tampering or theft is also an issue. Some camera bags even have built-in locks, helping ensure the safety of your camera, lenses, and other items.

Given the expense of a digital SLR camera, you’ll want a DSLR camera bag to protect it. Ideally, you would pick up a camera bag with additional lens storage. This way, you can change lenses at a moment’s notice and store them safely when not in use. Because digital SLR cameras are so compact, they’re also able to easily fit in a smaller camera case or bag.
