A good camera travel bag is as essential an item as memory cards for a serious photographer.
What should you demand in a camera travel bag? I look for several things…
I need it to hold my gear. I want it to reasonably protect my gear. I need it to be high quality. I want it to look good.
One of my favorite bags that meets these wants and needs is the Roamographer camera travel bag from HoldFast Gear, maker of fine leather goods such as straps, holsters, bags, photo journals, and accessories.

Roamographer Camera Travel Bag
What is a roamographer? If you’re a serious photographer, and you enjoy traveling to different places in order to find interesting photographic subjects, then you are a roamographer, a roaming or traveling photographer.
Really, any photographic outing can be seen as a roamographer situation, since anywhere we go outside of our studio, office, or home will require us to transport and carry our camera and lens equipment.
The Roamographer camera travel bag is a nice bag for traveling to the local park for environmental portraits, taking to a wedding photo shoot, or traveling cross country or internationally. The regular size Roamographer can hold a large DSLR or two, a couple of lenses, a large tablet or up to 15” laptop computer, and many accessories such as filters, flash units, or video lights.
The external straps are capable of securely and comfortably holding a medium to heavy tripod, and the carrying strap of this camera travel bag is super sturdy and comfortable with its shearling-lined shoulder pad.
Small Camera Travel Bag
The small-size Roamographer camera travel bag is perfect for mirrorless interchangeable lens camera systems. It has all of the same great features, high quality, and versatility of the regular size Roamographer but in a slightly smaller size.
It can hold a mirrorless body or two, 2 or 3 lenses, and other necessary photography gear such as filters, a flash, and a tablet. In both size bags, there are internal and external pockets for miscellaneous items such as your key fobs, an energy bar, or some flyers you picked up at the hotel.

Protective Versatile Insert
The insert is what gives this camera travel bag its extra protective capability, also making it a simple task to organize all of your essential items for easy access.
Look at it as a padded bucket with padded and moveable dividers that give your gear protection from the usual wear and tear we all give our camera gear when out on location taking pictures. Since you can move the dividers around, you can customize the bag for your shooting style or for different jobs and excursions.
Added to the built-in inner pockets and the large exterior pocket, you have a lot of room for your gear plus the ability to arrange it all as you wish. Don’t forget the exterior straps for a tripod, monopod, or an Indiana Jones-type bullwhip, whatever you feel most comfortable with while capturing images on the go.
Fine Leather Styling
A major plus for me when deciding on my next camera travel bag is attractive styling. I don’t need to be fancy like I’m James Bond wearing a tux in Monte Carlo, but I do enjoy my camera bags being stylish. The Roamographer camera travel bags do not disappoint in this regard.
As with all HoldFast Gear products, the materials chosen are first class all the way. The bag itself is American Bison leather, a fine leather that takes on a beautiful appearance the more it’s used, each bag aging in its own unique way for a stunningly beautiful and classic appearance.
The straps are beautiful and strong bridle leather and the shoulder pad is lined with shearling wool. Interiors and the insert are high-quality material that gives good looks plus extreme durability.
It’s a great bag that will be as welcome at a fancy wedding event as well as touring the streets of Paris, Dubai, Tokyo, Seattle, or Monte Carlo. The American Bison leather main construction protects your gear marvelously, and the bag flap fastens securely.
HoldFast Gear Camera Travel Bags and Accessories
The Roamographer camera travel bag fits in well with all of the fine leather goods made by HoldFast Gear. In the Roamographer Collection, you’ll also find a duffle bag which you can use as luggage or for holding a very large kit of photography gear (fill it with a couple of Roamaographer bag inserts), and some of the most comfortable everyday wear boots I’ve tried.
While you’re at HoldFast Gear, take a close look at the best camera harness/strap solution for active, traveling photographers, the Money Maker Dual Camera Strap, the item that first brought me to HoldFast Gear.
Use the Money Maker together with the Roamographer camera travel bag for a versatile, rugged, and stylish way to hold your cameras, lenses, and photographic accessories while out capturing beautiful images.
