Might be worth trying Cleveland Camera Mart on Linthorpe Road, Middlesbrough, well up towards the park.

They might not have that many so may be worth ringing first. What are you after?

Hi Jamie been to Currys today but don`t have what I need.What i need is possibly not available.I need a bag which is flat bottomed,top opening and can take a DSLR with a 50-500 attached 12 inches from end of lens to end of camera.I need a wheelchair to go out so also needs to be able to fit on my knees and between the arms of the wheelchair.Will keep looking.

Might be worthwhile checking out camera bags on ebay. They have quite a selection.

There are several brands with designs in that size/style. e.g. Lowpro, Tamrac, Courser etc.

Hi,

take a look at Morris Photo. Some of their shoulder bags should be what you are after:-

A couple that caught my eye looking at your description were:-

http://www.morrisphoto.co.uk/camera-bags/pro-12-bag-5612.html

I have bought a few things from them before and price, delivery speed and service were excellant

Thanks Ian and Jamie for the info. I already have a Lowpro 200 but it is a shoulder carrying one which was ok ar the time but because of the change in circumstances a flat bottomed top opener would be more practical. Will keep.looking and tell you how I get on.
Thanks again.
Graham

That Nova 200 AW looks promising.
