[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 216199, member: 9240"] What lenses? What other type of carry-on - a laptop case/backpack, roller suitcase, ??? Do you need it just for the plane or should it be functional once you get there? I could recommend almost anything without the answers. Having done a lot of traveling, my recommendation would be that if you're bringing a laptop then some type of laptop bag that will also accommodate a camera would be idea - either a backpack or a messenger bag variety. This way you kill two birds with one stone. If you're sticking it in a suitcase and don't need to pull it out during the trip, cap everything, bubble wrap it and stick it in there without a bag, knowing that there's always an outside chance that they'll require you to check the suitcase if the bag is too big for the overheads or if you board late enough that the overheads are full (i.e. I do not recommend this approach - though if you pack well you shouldn't need to worry, just keep them in the middle of the bag and not on top, because the luggage handlers land bags on the top, not on the back where the supports are).
