I have more bags than I can count on two hands, but the ones I use:
- everyday bag -
Billingham L2.
One body fitted with a lens, one/two more lenses (wide to modest tele
size), plenty of room for other "stuff" in the front pocket. Kinda
pricey ... Mine cost me $153 ordered from the UK, which was $50 less
than in the States.
- larger everyday bag -
Tamrac Superlight 5
Similar in footprint to the Superlight 5, but taller. Can handle body
with one lens and up to 3 more lenses, or two bodies each fitted with
a lens. Plenty of room for other stuff, and can take Tamrac and
Lowepro accessory pouches. Inexpensive at $35, very good quality.
- larger everyday bag -
Domke F803 Camera Satchel
Easily carry 1 body fitted with long lens, two bodies each with a
short lens, and up to four additional lenses. Non-traditional,
"briefcase" look, very comfortable to carry lots of stuff. A favorite
for travel.
or
Domke F6 Little Bit Smaller
Two bodies fitted with lenses, 3-4 additional lenses, lots of extra
stuff.
- travel case -
Lowepro CompuTrekker backpack
Pelican 1710 rollaway hard case
Either of these two will carry more gear than I own or ever want to
carry. Too big/bulky/heavy for me to want to use other than when
schlepping stuff in the car or on a plane.

plus filters and of course 360FGZ, multiplier... I think all of us
at least
once, faced this dilema. I have two bags, a aw reporter 400 and a
stealth
reporter 200 Lowepro. But I always think they are a bit bulky and eye
catching. I read that Godfrey has a small Billingham, but I don't
know what
sort of gear does it take. What kind of small bags do you use and
what gear
can they take?
Thanks,
