Camera Bag

Use a ziplock…and don’t drop the camera….(ultralight isnt for the weak :) )

And for everyday use, go to walmart and buy a $5 case.

Ultralight, basically waterproof, and cheaper and easier than a homemade case

zip lock (aloksak) lined with bubble wrap. You could use double sided tape to adhere the bubble wrap to inside of the aloksak.

Camera size, shape and weight all come into play in what might work. Can you elaborate on what camera you’re considering? Also, do you want to keep it at hand on the trail, or is it going into your pack?

alright, here is what I am working with. Camera is a Canon S3 IS that arives tomorrow (friday). Somewhere in size between an slr and a point and shoot (I call it an ultralight slr).
I have an old Ultimate Directions pack with hipbelt pockets like ULA that I use, and I think it will fit in one of those, but I want to consider other options, keeping it easily accessable.
I was also thinking of something that would attatch to the sternum strap a la golite team pouch, but big enough for the camera.
