Long time, no post, hoping to become active on the OCUK forums again soon :)

I'm basically looking for a new camera bag which is nicely built and will hold the following equipment with room for filters / a few cables / bottles of water:

  • Canon 5d mk II with battery grip attached
  • Canon 350d with battery grip attached (which may possibly become another 5d mk II in the future)
  • Sigma 10-20mm f4
  • Canon 17-40mm f4 L
  • Canon 24-105mm f4 L IS
  • Canon 50mm f1.8
  • Canon 70-200mm f4 L
  • Canon 100-400mm f4 L IS
  • Canon speedlite 580 EX mk I
  • Canon 1.4x teleconverter
  • Remote controls for both camera bodies
  • Spare batteries
  • Charger for both types of battery
  • Spare memory cards
  • Spare lens caps
  • Lens cloths
  • Lens pouches

I've had a look round and I think I'll be looking at between £80 - £120 atm but can anyone recommend a bag for me which doesn't cost over the odds?

Thanks in advance :)

EDIT: I've just noticed a thread similar to this one, but it didn't seem to have the same amount of equipment which was required to go into a bag.

Any advice on a model / make?

Lowepro Trekker series. I use the Pro Trekker. It's big, but very solid and comfortable. Or see if you can get away with one of the smaller ones like a Nature Trekker.

Or

The Guragear Kiboko. Expensive and would need importing, but it's definitely my next bag.

Or

Tamrac Expedition series. Very similar to the Lowpro Trekker series.

Or

A ThinkTankPhoto bag

Or

A Kinesis system bag.
