Most Expensive Designer Camera Bag
Have you ever considered buying an expensive designer camera bag? Is it going to be a pricey bag you're going to give as a gift?
How about $3500 for the price of a gear sack?
I came across a post about this camera gear bag from a very talented photographer and immediately felt the urge to post my comments.
I am guessing it's not too arguable of a point to make that the majority of digital photographers in the world would not even consider buying a camera bag that is worth more than the photography equipment the're going to put inside it.
With that said the question comes to mind who would buy the most expensive designer camera bag.
A friend of mine used to answer the question, "Why would anybody ever buy a Bugatti?" with the simplest answer.
Because they can!
Just so you know, a Bugatti Veyron runs you around $2,5000,000.00 these days.
I've often wondered whether I would indulged in such extravagant camera accessories if money wasn't a factor.
Seriously, if I won the Mega Millions lottery and had too much money to spend, would I? Perhaps I might have when I was in my twenties and thirties and I participated in the "more things mean more happiness" stream of thought. I am not so sure now.
No doubt that good tools make creating good photographs easier and more enjoyable. Isn't this the question to ask then: Will the accessory (Canon camera accessories included) enhance my experience or the process of capturing the photograph I am looking for?
How much enjoyment will you get from your camera bag?
This is the bag that was designed for Annie Leibovitz.
She is a world famous photographer who does not like to carry a purse around with her.
She wants to have her hands free and unencumbered to take photographs.
This bag can carry her personal belongings in addition to her camera equipment.
If your enjoyment level goes up proportionally with the exclusivity of a name, it might be a good choice for you. After all, if buying a small $1900 Gucci tote bag gives you 100 times more enjoyment that a $19 tote bag, then more power to you.
Oops, did a let a little sarcasm enter this discussion?
Is it a functional and expensive designer camera bag?
Despite making a living in the artistic medium of photography, I am all about function.
Looking at the this bag reveals to us that it is obviously functional.
Based on it's price alone, I think we can assume that the quality of the materials likely can't be questioned.
It has several well designed pouches and a compartmentalized main storage area with adjustable divider. It has well designed zippers, straps and hardware. It does not have straps for a tripod. Would that break the deal for you?
