I have a panny GX1 with the 14-42 and 14 pancake lenses.

My current bag is the LowePro Apex 100 which holds the GX1 with 14-42 lens and a spare battery. The 14mm sits in a Sandisk memory card pouch attached to the side (just fits)

I have just got the 45-200 pammy lens and its quite big 8cmx10cm

So to my question:

Can't decide weather to get a neoprene lens pouch or maybe the small Tamrac lens case and tag this onto the Apex however I fear this may be a bit cumbersom.

So the other alternative is a new bag (you know how us photographers love buying camera bags :0 ). One that will accomodae everything.

Now in the future I may also buy the EVF as well at some point.

What are people using, I want it to be as small as poss but hold everything and maybe not look like a camera bag. Been looking at the Crumpler site and seen the Cupcake range (Stupid name)

So what are your thoughts? What are you using?
 
I'm using the Lowepro Event Messenger 100 with an OM-D and assorted lenses.

I did quite a lot of research before buying as I wanted something fairly small and light, and it's easily the best bag-for-current-kit I've ever had.
 
Lowepro event messenger 150. I use one for my xpro1, x100, lenses and accessories. Brilliant bag for less than fifty of the Queen's pounds
 
Best MFT outfit bag I have ever owned is the Artist & Artisan Image Smith bag.

Beautifully made and perfect design for an MFT body and several lenses.

Like most I have owned MANY camera bags over the years but have never even dreamt of selling this
 
Sorry for the hijack....is there an Artisan and Artist distributor in Europe?
 
I think Classic Camera in London stocks them. They're primarily designed to carry a rangefinder and collection of lenses do ideally suited to MFT
 
The Artist and Artisan comfortably took my EP3, EVF, 12mm, 25mm, 45mm, 14-42 and (at a pinch) 100-300. Plus various hoods and filters
 
Don't go there - it is a dangerous place!

You go in with lots of money, all the lovely shiny things will call to you and you'll walk out with lots of heavy shopping bags and no money
 
I have used Tamrac bags for many years and happy to recommend them.
