Morning all

I've bought my third lens now, and my current Crumpler camera bag just isn't big enough anymore, so it's time to get a new one.

I really like the look of the Incase DSL Pro Pack, but I can't find a UK reseller.

I like the look of that as I can get all my gear in, and my iPad or Macbook if I wished, and also the fact that it's not ugly as hell (like every Loweprow I've seen)

So what've you got?

I've got a couple of Billinghams for when I need up to 3 lenses at the most and a Lowe Pro Magnum for carrying more than that. The Lowe Pro is a bit utilitarian but the Billinghams are beautiful bags. You'd get a laptop in the back of a Billingham if you didn't mind the weight being on one shoulder.

I just bought a Lowepro Flipside 400. It might be ugly, but it's got some great features and swallows both of my 5D bodies with 24-70 and 85mm attached, 70-200 f2.8 and 100-400, plus room for a tablet....and still fits in hand luggage!

The best thing is you can open it fully and have both hands free to change lenses without putting it down on the ground. As long as you don't mind looking like a dork. nerd
