B.D.,
    Everybody has their opinions, however misguided...
    The most universally recognized camera bag by the general public (read
thieves) is the Domke bag.  They are everywhere. When Jim Domke still owned
his bag business, he used a photo of a Red Chinese photographer working on
the Great Wall carrying a Domke bag!!
    In our own little community, we know what a Billingham bag is and what
it carries, but the general public doesn't.
    Lastly, please re-read your last paragraph. Brady fishing bags were the
basis for Billingham, not the reverse.
Happy Snaps,
