[QUOTE="N_Addy, post: 70299, member: 9985"] Wow, lots of Lowepro love here! I like Lowepro too but let me offer a few alternatives. What are your specific carry needs? Will you primarily be carrying your gear around town or on the campus? If so something small and lightweight would be in order. Do you hike a lot? A backpack-style bag would probably be in order. Do you travel a lot and need extra protection in overhead baggage bins? In that case your needs are completely different. For light-duty I love Domke bags. They are lightweight, made of canvas, and form-fit to your body making them VERY comfortable. They also don't scream "Camera Bag!". But they are NOT made for maximum protection. The F-6 ("Little Bit Smaller" bag) would be ideal for your gear. For hiking or travel I have a Lowepro Slingshot but prefer my Tenba Shootout (also a sling-style bag). It is similar to the Slingshot but offers several improved design features and better protection. Other good travel options include Think Tank and Pelican. Both offer maximum protection. [/QUOTE]
