    what kind of bags do you guys have? i'm not talking professional, but personal travel bags that you hold laptop, camera, and lenses. i have a few for the camera and lenses, but i need one that will handle a laptop as well for those trips where flying is required. so i'm interested in brands and any tips you guys could give me on choosing the right bag (cushioning, weight, size, blah blah)

    thanks fellers :sifone:

    I've got this one: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...TF8&coliid=I24TNOQPC4L5YP&colid=1Y87EWH3I5ORB

    It holds my 15" Wide screen Laptop and all my gear just fine. It can get a little heavy, but it's not overly huge and it's comfortable to wear.

    The only thing I don't like about it is that you pretty much have to take it off to get to the camera compartment. I'm likely going to get the Lowepro Slingshot 200 to carry when I don't need to carry my laptop. For a pure camera bag it seems a little easier to use.

    thanks mark. i had looked at that bag but i didn't care for the lenses being stored at the bottom and the way the bottom kinda flopped open when unzipped. i found one i really like, but it's over $200.

    larry...buy this bag for me for being the longest tenured lesbian on tbr. pleeeeeze

    Got it today. I obviously havent carried it around all day, but I love the way everything fits in it and the single strap is more comfortable in the short term than i thought it would be.
