I am big on traveling but I do not have a gear bag for my DSLR stuff. I would like it as a backpack style with room for a tripod and lense. What are the best brands? Any for $60 or below?

Thanks,

Fritz
 
The AmazonBasics bag is only about $40 and is great for the price. I can fit 3 tele lenses in it, plus a T3i, tripod, mattebox, mic, and backup Vixia HFM31.
 
I found a Quantaray backpack at our local Wolf Camera for $99. It fits the camera, several lenses, cables, a couple of external hard drives (slim, portable), cables, batteries and charger, filters, etc. It also has a padded compartment for my laptop. It's holding up well. There are straps on one side for attaching a tripod, but it is meant to hold the cheap, light-weight models and not the heavier professional tripods for video. I sort of wish I hadn't sold my Porta Brace BK-N1, which fits tons of gear and a decent (compact) tripod.
 
I just got back from Europe with my "Tamrac Adventure 6" model. It's a smaller bag, something I like about it very much is how small the bag is. Only thing, it won't fit tripod. I could not recommend this bag more though.

It can hold lenses in the top compartment and the camera in the bottom. To open and pull out the camera is very quick.

In addition to that the weather was tough on it and it still looks like new.

Im looking for a new bag myself and that Amazon basics one looks good but i need to carry a 13" laptop as well. Do they make a larger version perchance?
