		| | What are some of the better brands for camera accessories. Such as lens filters, tripods, camera bags etc. If i am going to spend money i would like to spend a bit extra and get quality items that will work well and not fall apart. 
 As for a bag right now i have a lowepro slingshot 200 that i like quit a bit.

		| | wow, I think youd have to be product specific, like 
 Gitzo, bogen for tripods
 B&W for filters
 Lowepro is EXCELLENT baggage
 
 What other accessories are you looking for?

 Well, you are from Steeltown. All that heavy industrial pollution has probably clouded your judgement. :-P

		| | No, he's right, nikons the good stuff :) 
 Hoya filters are good... The BW are better. crumpler bags are good bags. Itoya? Really? Not a fan.... Go with lost luggage here. Yes, the $100.00 per portfolio is worth it. They show like a gem.
