A question for everyone this week.
What camera bag(s) do you use? What do you think of it?
I'm looking around for a new bag, and I'm curious what everyone else uses.
At the moment I've got 2 backpacks and a Lowepro Toploader 75AW, but I'm still looking for the perfect backpack:
Basically one that I can fit a pro-body dSLR with a wide angle zoom, a telephoto zoom (80-400) and a small prime.
I want it to be able to carry a tripod (centered down the back...tripod attatchments on the side of a bag unbalance it)
A section where I can put clothes/food/stuff for when I take it on a plane or when I'm camping overnight (ideally I'd like to fit it all in one bag)
When I'm NOT carrying much stuff in the non-camera section, I don't want it to be too big...which I guess is tricky given what I said above.
I've looked at loads of bags, but at the moment the Lowepro Primus AW seems to be what will meet my needs best.
So, I'm curious..what are people here using, and what do you think of it?
Let me know

Congrats on the DD!
About the bag, i also have a Lowerpro and i really like it and since i don't have many things to carry, it's fine to me
'gratz on the DD, and thanks for that fav
About the bag, I had similar requirements, plus it had to have the side pockets for bottles, and ended up with a Tamrac Adventure 9.
In the lower compartment it fits a Canon SLR with e.g. 10-22 wide attached, 70-200 tele, 18-55 kit, 50mm prime and some thin filters and batteries.
The upper pocket is rather small (too small if you intend to carry stronger clothes), but good enough for some food (or ND grads).
There is also a big pocket on your back-side for the laptop, though I used it for a small tripod
Plus, you can fit two bottles on the side, where they are accessible and don't take up space, which I reckon is quite important.
There are plenty more of similar Tamrac bags, so if you're interested please check their site: [link]
The replies here should be made into a news entry lol, so many useful hints
Thanks for the recommendation
