Proper Camera Bag

I have just bought myself a proper camera bag for my Fuji S5500.
I have had the camera just over a year, but apart from buying a pouch for it I didn’t really want a proper camera bag, as they tend to be bulky and shout of I’m a tourist or I have an expensive camera in here.
While we were over in Canada, I was carrying my camera in a small rucksack. Which was fine, but everytime I wanted to take a photo, it took me nearly 10 minutes to get it out of the bag.
On our last day I saw this rucksack in one of the skiing magazines. Its a one strap bag, which means that you can swing it round and it has a side opening for the camera, which means you can take the camera out without taking the bag off. Its a Lowepro bag, so nice and sturdy and it comes with a weatherproof cover, and lots of pockets for other bits and pieces.
Excellent for those magnificent views from chair lifts. It will also be ideal for walking and trips out and about when you want to have your camera out of the way, but accessible for those don’t want to miss shots.
If the weather stays fine this weekend will take it on a test run to the beach.
Didn’t make it to the beach this weekend. We were doing diy on Saturday and on Sunday there was rather a lot of rain and hail even though there were some sunny spells.
May have better luck next week.
