Camera bag for Mamiya RZ/RB series
Being new to the medium format and willing to lug my beloved RZ67 around, I was wondering what type of a camera bag folks use. I'm looking for a backpack type for basic camera with 2-3 lenses and a tripod. Tamrac and Tenba make few interesting models, particularly Tenba Shootout line. Wonder if anyone has any experience with either one.
Oh yeah, I prefer made in USA bag unless there are no viable alternatives.
Thank you

Have you ever heard of Crumpler bags. I have a small one and they're pretty well made. I think they're made in China though.

The cool think about them is that they don't look like camera bag which has it's appeal for me. I have a beloved RZ also for 20 years. Funny thing as I get older, the heavier it gets ;-)

I have a Lowe Pro Photo Trekker ( I think that's the name). I bought a relatively big model to hold all of my RB equipment for storage, and travel. I easily holds the body, my 4 lenses, 2 film backs, the eye level finder, light meter, lots of film, and even a sandwich. I rarely take every thing, mainly becase fully loaded we're talking around 35 lbs. on my back. It's very well made, and offers great protection for the gear. Last year I was in a situation wear I had to slide it down some ice, and snow covered boulders(note to self, take rope next time) to get to where the shot was and it (and my gear) were unscathed. It's also a very comfortable carry.
