I keep the bulk of my camera kit in a Lowepro Computrekker. Given the amount in there, it is a bit on the heavy side.

I'm looking for a more portable solution that I can use for days out, etc, where I don't need to cart the whole works about with me.

Something that will ideally take:

5D and 24/70 lens
70-200 lens (maybe)
580ex flash

plus the usual bits and pieces (CF cards, batteries, etc).

It might be helpful if it could accommodate a laptop too.

I'm really looking for something that looks a little "stealthy" and doesn't scream "full of expensive camera kit to be stolen" and I'd prefer a satchel type bag rather than a rucksack style.

So far, the Tenba Messenger is looking like a possible candidate, but I'd welcome any other suggestions that TP might generate.

Thanks!
 
Think Tank have a couple of good bags that don't scream expensive camera, look on cambags.com where they review each bag and show what it fits, etc
 
Handy link... thanks for that. I'll have a good nosy there!
 
Maybe take a look at some of the ThinkTank Retrospective bags, I was considering one when looking for a new bag a while ago and they seem very decent. They seem to hold a decent amount of gear, and they definitely do not look like camera bags. :)
 
I have been browsing the Tenba bags too, they look pretty good.
I had even thought about the Think Tank one too, I saw one in Jacobs & its very well made.
I change my mind every day regarding bags though, I think I have just decided then another pops along.
