What Bag

[Walt]

Hi, looking for a new bag for my gear preferably rucksack style but not something that looks like i,m going on an expedition to the nth pole.
Heres what it will need to carry:

Canon 350d with grip
Canon 70-300
Sigma 17-70
Nifty Fifty
Plus a few filters, batteries etc

Would a Lowepro mini-trekker fit the bill or not, any suggestions or advice gratefully accepted.

P.S may be interested in 2nd hand if anyone has something suitable for sale.

Thanks Pete

I suggest you have a read here http://www.talkphotography.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=76164 I bought one of his shoulder bags, good quality and excellent service, i believe you also get a 10% discount as a TP member.

Redsnapper SY-618, because you'll need the capacity.

i really like the crumpler range, i had a lowepro orion trekker2 and it let water in, i had to claim on the house insurance for the gear i lost! whatch out for water resistant (splash proof) and water proof (wont let water in). 'all weather' come with a waterproof membrane you pull out and round the bag.

Bags are such a personal thing and requirements vary greatly. My own preference is for the LowePro Rover AW II. It holds a camera with grip and up to 4 lenses in the lower portion with room in the top half for waterproofs, butties etc. More importantly, is extremely comfortable to wear.
