Spec me a bag!

Looking to purchase a camera bag to keep everything together, also to double up as 'hand luggage' when travelling. I'm thinking shoulder bag, potentially with the option to attach it to a trolley or whatever.

My kit consists of D3100, battery, charger, 18-55, 35 1.8, 55-200 lenses, a few filters and cleaning gear. Obviously this may grow with time.

I'd like there to be enough room to accommodate new kit when the time comes, plus my iPad and other generic travel items - bottle of water, magazine etc.

I tried a few in Jessop's, and the Lowepro Nova 200AW caught my eye. It's spacious, customisable, and not too big to travel with:

It can be picked up for around £55 most places atm, down from around £70.

Can anybody suggest any alternatives that may suit, or have personal experience of the Lowepro 200? I'd like to keep it within the ~£50 bracket.

Thanks in advance.

I'm actually considering backpacks now too. Going to hopefully take a trip over to Jessops or somewhere tomorrow and test a few.
 
Yes I actually picked up the Lowepro Nova 200, but I'm heading back into town soon to swap it for something else. The bag itself is very clever, very versatile and plenty of pockets etc, but as you say the strap is quite uncomfortable.

I think a small/med size backpack will suit me better as it can accommodate more when on days out etc or when travelling.
