I recently purchased a ThinkTank Airport Takeoff, and while I'm really pleased with it, I've realised that it's not quite perfect for my needs.
I shoot events all over the world, the Airport Takeoff is great for lugging around an airport and carrying loads of gear in one go. It doesn't excel quite so much when it comes to having to cross the track quickly (motorsport) and having a huge bag with me at all times has become a pain.
I've come to the conclusion that I need a bag which is lightweight (this is very important, as it'll be going in my hold luggage and I'd rather it didn't take up much room or weight) and ideally it'll be able to take a gripped camera with a 70-200 2.8, or at a minimum fit the 70-200 in the bag.
In a perfect world it'd fit the following:
Gripped camera with 70-200 2.8
24-70 2.8
Flash
The Crumpler 6000 seems good, but I doubt it'd fit the gripped camera and 70-200, but it'd be good for transporting and very light (431g).
Any better ideas?
