Currently I have a billingham m system bag, great but small.
and a domke bag that houses 4 lenses and 2 bodies, but in doing so i dont feel they're protected, nor is the bag really comfortable.
I would like to go with another billingham bag, as i like the black/black colorway as well as feel the quality is top.
I'm mostly using it for shooting music - so the more form fitting an inconspicious as possible would be great!
Please help me out!
Idealy i'd like to house a light meter, filters, lens cleaner and possibly a flash.
Thanks!
here's some recent shots with the m8. (the other body is a m6)

I would hate to carry 5 lenses. What a hassle.

I have a older Billingham Hadley classic bag that I use with 2 bodies and 3 lenses. You could probably fit 4 lenses in it. The Pro model has inserts that can be re-arranged depending on your needs.
I think Domke bags are stiffer and more secure than Billinghams, but I like that they don't look like a camera bag and are silent when opened.
The last think I would want is to hear the rip sound of a velcro enclosure everytime I got my camera out.

I too have gone away form the bag when shooting. Using 2 M8s ...21 and 75 on the bodies and 35 and 50 in vest. But for traveling I use a Billingham Hadley Large...Why the large ..because it will also take a 15 MacBook . This bag is thin which keeps it close to the body but its tall and wide which allows for extra stuff. The pockets are tall enogh to handle 2 M lenses back to back . So it will really hold 2 bodies and 6 lenses without using the outside compartments. I just unpack everything when I get where I am going and pack up the vest.
