Tip of the Day: DIY Padded Foam Inserts

If you are like most people, every dollar counts, and expensive cases, bagpacks, and shoulder bags, which have been specifically designed for photography gear may be out of your price range. If so, consider this... Foam padding which comes with many computer parts today is an excellent material to use as an insert for a regular bagpack, or a shoulder bag. Consider getting a spacious shoulder bag, and with the help of foam inserts, line the bottom of the bag, and use as separators for your lenses and other gear. For a small fraction of the money, your gear will be safe and protected from moderate impact.
