Tamrac and Lowepro both make good bags. Tamracs are generally a little less expensive than Lowepros.

Two bags that might be suitable from their lines, depending upon how much you intend to carry:

Tamrac SuperLight 5 shoulder bag ...
Very nice shape and size. Although it's a shoulder bag instead of a waist pack, the vertical shape makes it very comfortable to carry and not get in the way. It takes external modular system add-ons from both the Tamrac and Lowepro lines. I've used it on a couple of trips and found it can hold the *ist DS and up to four lenses, plus other gear, very handily, amazing for such a small bag. See http://www.tamrac.com (look for model 5405 in the Superlight section of the product page)

Lowepro Photo Runner
A waist pack that can also clip to a larger pack system or be used with a shoulder strap. Fits the DS with two/three lenses and accessories, you can also strap a tripod to the bottom for convenience in carrying.

Does anyone know how good Tamrac bags are? I'dlike to get one to hold the *ist D on my belt.
