(airline compat as well *** be a plus)

this guys:bonk:
 
tamrac expedition 9x got the nod..seems bags are not a hot topic but we all have 4 plus!!!
 
Defo look at the think tank range, I've gone through lots of bags now and I have 3 think tanks that I useat various times and the lowepro lens trecker if I'm just taking a long lens and a body out.

I pity your back if you're planning on walking any distance with that lot!
 
I would check out the Tamrac Expedition 9x again. I've got one and, unless I'm missing something very badly, it doesn't have a laptop pouch. The Expedition 8x does though and it's almost the same size as the 9x but I'm not sure you'll get the 500mm in. When I'm using my 9x I have the laptop resting on top of the padding for the camera and then just zipped up around it. If you do get one and find a pouch, please take a photo and PM me it so I can find it. The only reason I bought a Tamrac Super Pro 14 was it was big enough for all my geay and it does have a laptop pouch.
