Here’s my setup, I’m probably going to ditch the dry bags at the back and replace them with a bottom bracket bag.
I’ve got a Canon G7x MkII. I’ve just bought (I promise this isn’t an attempt at an ad!) a Lumiere camera strap but it’s not particularly comfortable and is probably overkill for my little compact camera. I could put it in the top tube bag but I’m concerned about vibrations damaging it. I’ve tried my jsersey pocket in the past but then I’m concerned about it falling out and it’s cumbersome to get from there while riding. A stem bag is another option but the cylindrical ones are overkill and the Restrap Tech Bag is too wide as I like to ride on the bar tape sometimes. Thoughts? I’m thinking I’ll just put some padding in the top tube bag and live with it. What would/do you do?

I’ve found handlebar bottle bags are the best for small cameras, get one with a draw string if you’re worried about things popping out.

Handlebar bags are super useful for small things.

I use a stem bag for my olympus om5 mkii. Hasn’t been killed by vibrations yet. If not that then a small hip pack?
That camera is small so it should be easy to put somewhere accessible. Padding in the too tube bag should work fine.
