I really like the look of their Foxtrot bag, but I can't find any reviews of it. It's kind of odd.

Edit: I thought those bags look a bit familiar. They look to be Courser bags from China. If you do an eBay search, you'll see what I mean.

I need a new bag because I've outgrown my Maxpedition Versipack knockoff. I'd like something big enough to hold a NEX-5N with accessories and a rangefinder or small SLR with a couple of lenses. I've been looking at the Domke F2 and Crumpler 6 Million Dollar Home. Any opinions are welcome! I don't have a camera shop around that I could try out bags in, so I'm having to rely on other's opinions of the bags I'm looking at.
 
I probably need a couple of bags now. The ones I have are full of stuff already. I'd like to be able to grab a couple of cameras I'm using that day, and remove them when I return home.
 
I have a really big backpack that doubles as my storage container and holds all my gear.

I have a BBB-E bag which I use for one body a couple of lenses and Ipad.

I am looking for recommendations for a bag to hold two cameras, up to 5 lenses and Ipad.
 
Billingham F1.4 (shoulder bag)
Think Tank Shape Shifter (backpack)
Think Tank Skin belt & Skin 50 component (modular)
No bag

Classy? Casual? Controlled? Environment in which I can freely work out of the bag set down? I'm inclined to take the shoulder bag. I like to store equipment in the shoulder bag, too. If I'm travelling, walking long distances, or bringing the laptop as well, then I'm more likely to take the backpack. Minimally? with only one camera, one lens? Then just the camera and lens, no bag. If I want to be minimal with an extra lens, then no bag, then I take the modular belt. It all depends.

P.S. I REALLY want an iPad. Version 2 or 3? I'm thinking 2 is the best way to go?
 
This looks ideal for some of you:

i'm needing a bag that will hold 2 dslrs with lenses attached plus one more lens...casual, low key and cheap...any thoughts?
 
I have 6. 1 very large Tamrac Expedition backpack for almost my entire Nikon kit and paid work, 1 Timbuk2 small custom classic messenger with Snoop camera insert for every day use. 1 Kata backpack with the little cordoned off section for snacks or a jacket that also fits a laptop...and three bags that are currently up on my local craigslist (Tamrac 5533, Tamrac 5534, Tamrac Zoom Pro 4.)
 
One bag three lenses and a flash in the F3-X. It's my workhorse bag It's pretty much all I need. I sold an F2 because it was too big to carry everywhere. I've contemplated an F6 because it may fit my needs better, but the F3-X has been perfect. I bought the rugged wear waxed canvas one and for all I've put it through it's held up well. Though it smells a bit like burnt wood from all of the fires I've gone to recently.

i think the 5xb would be as close to perfect as i could hope for...if they just took the zipper out and made the mouth a touch bigger...

. . . and made it one space longer . . . and replaced the belt loop with the same slim pocket they use on their other bags . . . and a zippered front pocket like the F6.

Hey, it would still be a small bag. And yes, I have an F10, which comes close, but doesn't have the extra length I want. Either one, made three inches longer, would be great.
 
I had/have a lot of bags. All sizes and shapes that I need when I need them. Some cheap, some expensive. Why should anyone care?
 
I own 3 dedicated photo bags but I never use them anymore. I just got me an Artisan & Artist insert holding one body and three lenses. With that, I can now convert my messenger bags (2 sizes) or backpack into camera bags...
 
I bought a Domke F10 and I was happy for a while. Okay, 2 weeks. And then I came across the Grafea UK website. Damn.
 
I have two bags, one big bag (A&A DCAM-7000) for my rf camera plus other gears, the other small bag (A&A ACAM-1100) for only a rf camera. These bags work perfect for me. :)
