[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 268060, member: 13090"] I prefer a backpack bag, personally, but this is a really personal choice. What I've found is that I rarely need to carry every single bit of kit that I own. I like being light and fast and to this end I maintain two camera bags. Bag #1 is my "Big Bag" that can contain ALL my kit. Its main function is storage; it gives me place to keep all my kit. I rarely carry this bag on my person, though it rides in the car a lot. Bag #2 is a much smaller, more portable, messenger bag; it's my "grab-and-go" bag. This one carries a spare lens, a filter, some spare SD cards and a spare battery. There's room for a flash if I really think I'm going to need it but that's pretty rare actually. Bag #2 packs the bare essentials because this is the stuff I know I need 99% of the time. If I'm not going to need it, I don't want to be carrying it... And it's amazing how little you actually need 99% of the time. [/QUOTE]
