Dorky Dog guarding my D7100 the day I bought it.
He's keeping kitty away while the battery charges.
This is the last image from my retired D3100.
I bought the 50mm f1.8 AF-D and 85mm f1.8G lenses at the same time I bought the D7100.
No more major purchases for awhile unless something interesting turns up used in the local shops.

congratulations,hope the light starts to improve so you can enjoy it.
Just picked up a Think Tank Streetwalker Pro backpack for my FX gear and will use my old bag for my DX gear.
I will switch out lenses as I acquire better glass. But for my needs this fits everything I need. I have my 70-200 mounted to my D610 with Grip. My 50, 24-85, 100 macro, and a cheapie Flash.
The gripped D610 is snug but not alarmingly so. I can always remove the grip of it becomes a bother later.

To be clear I have (ab)used this bag every day for over 2 years, with a lot of lenses in it.
I do see some wear on the fabric/plastic (it is not as pretty as new, but no big issue, functionally OK).
One strap from the back broke. I put some modern nylon closing to repair, works fine.
Currently out with my Lowepro, which is better, but the Case Logic is a joy to use.

These will be here tomorrow - procrastinated on these for far too long. Actually have two transceivers....
which lowepro , i havent used one so cant compare , i just like the caselogics dividers they keep everything very neat , most bags ive owned the divders are a nightmare , i also love the bright orange makes seeing everything a breeze , two years from a bag for a bit over $100 with heavy use ill take that for sure

Thanks to Hark for pointing out that Adorama had the Manfrotto 680B on sale, this arrived today:
Now I have one other package waiting for delivery today, a couple Westcott 45" umbrellas.
... it's not much, but it's something.
