Whats in your bag !!!

G4AJG: Is the Mini Trekker much bigger than the Micro Trekker 200? Was looking at getting one as I can't quite get everything I want in the micro trekker I have now?

Cheers

Dave

Personally use the Mini Trekker most of the time. Also leave the gear stored in the Mini Trekker as well.

Hope the photos help.

I hope I am not the first one to think that 'the things you normally carry' means everyday, and not just when you out shooting. And if some of you carry all this stuff everyday (Photography is your main job), then fine, but I am sure that some of you don't carry all this stuff everyday.

For me part of my week is not Photography related, so the stuff I carry everyday:

20D
17-40 F4
35 F1.4
Diary (paper kind)
Notebook (paper kind)
ST-E2
Phone and other stuff
All inside a Lowepro Omni tracker
 
I carry a lot all the time.

Finally got round to taking a photo (albeit on my lowly K750i - sorry for the quality!)

I can highly recommend the Kata R-103 rucksack - built like a tank, but distributes the weight nicely - I've only done approx 6 mile walk with it but was comfortable over that distance.
