Backpack style: I tested the Kata Sensitivity V. In the lower compartment, it fits the K10D with 20-35 fitted plus two more modest sized lenses, or the K10D with DA14 and hood fitted and one other modest sized lens. That leaves the upper compartment, the exterior pockets and the 15" laptop slots free for other stuff. It's a nice backpack style bag: slim, not too heavy, not too expensive.
Another one that works really well is the Lowepro Slingshot 200AW. Carries more than the Kata above, a little chunky but comfortable. And there's also the Tamrac Adventure 7 Photo Backpack that someone else here recommended. Looks to be a good bag. Shoulder bag: The Tamrac SuperLight V fits K10D with medium to large size lens fitted, plus two/three additional medium sized lenses. Nice, lightweight, useful bag with a tallish form factor. One of my old favorites, the Domke F803 Camera Satchel fits the K10D plus lens fitted plus at least one or two other lenses and other miscellaneous stuff. The Domke F3X would fit K10D with battery grip and a bunch of other stuff. The Domke F5XB will fit the K10D with a compact lens and one other. I seem to be using the F803 a lot lately to carry my usual junk and the K10D with two lenses. Beltbag: The Lowepro Photo Runner is a good minimalistic bag that works with a belt, from the shoulder, or combined with a shoulder bag. Big enough for the K10D, one trim lens fitted and two others, or the K10D with a larger lens and one other of modest size. Lots and lots of options... !
