Ralf, I am happy with my LowePro Orion AW. I don't like having all the weight on my shoulders, and I don't like having all of it on my hips, either (just call me choosy!); with this bag I use both the shoulder strap and hip belt, and can vary the weight distribution. It carries my K10D, 16-45, 50-200, 10-17, 50/1.7, and various clutter with room to spare.
