Having the right bag or case for your camera and lenses are essential to protect them and to have everything at hand and ready for use.
Many photographers do a lot of travelling and it is necessary that they have the right bag and case that will fit into the cabin space or be safe in the hold.
There are over the shoulder bags and cases, cases with handles, bages with handles and scores of pockets for every accessory, computer bags that have special dedicated compartments for cameras and lenses, and the ever-popular back packs for cameras, videos, lenses of all shapes and sizes, disks and other paraphernalia essential for the photographer to have with him or her at all times.
The lightness of the bag also plays a role in choice as well as what it is made of and if it resists water as photographers sometimes are caught in the rain or choose to do special photography in the rain!
