[QUOTE="lorenbrothers, post: 513395, member: 41042"] How stuck are you on a bag as opposed to a "backpack"? I travel a lot and find a backpack style a lot easier to deal with, but that's just me. That 'gadget bag' is really dinky and I doubt it would handle even the small amount of gear you mentioned. I'd give it a miss. The smaller Tamrac 6 Bill mentioned goes for around $250 [URL="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00148QQSC/"]Amazon.com : Tamrac 5586 Expedition 6x Photo/Laptop Backpack (Black) : Camera Accessory Bags : Computers & Accessories[/URL] as opposed to the $625 for the 8X that he has. (I about fainted when I saw the price). If the $250 sticker price doesn't send you into cardiac arrest then you might want to consider this Lowpro: [URL="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00ODEYT42/"]Amazon.com : Lowepro Pro Trekker 450 AW Camera and Laptop Backpack Bag - Black : Camera & Photo[/URL] WAY bigger than the Tamrac 6 (or even the 8). Only drawback is that it is not waterproof which is bizarre for a $275 item. A friend of mine has one and he loves it though. If your wallet, like mine, is inhabited mostly by moths then you might consider this: [URL="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B005J09OXU/"]Amazon.com : Professional Gear Backpack for Digital SLR Nikon Cameras, Laptops and Accessories by USA Gear - Works With Nikon D7200, D810A, Coolpix P900 & More : Camera Cases : Camera & Photo[/URL] which is a step above that Acuvar ... but dinky also ;) (Just my 2 pence worth and not implying ANY endorsement on my part) ;) [/QUOTE]
