Good food for thought here. Lots of sound responses but I'll chime in. I use a Lowepro Lumina 1 a lot, ideal for one body with a lens attached, and an extra lens (has only two compartments. I also use a larger Billingham that has three compartments so plenty of room for 2-3 bodies, 2-3 lens, film, etc. Something in between the two would be ideal for me as I most often like to use two M bodies, each with a lens attached, and one body carrying color film, the other black & white.
One thing I look for is compartments for camera bodies, as opposed to my 1984Billingham which has one large open space. I do not like having camera bodies banging around each other, and bubble wrap pockets are a bit cumbersome. I wonder if current Billingham dividers will fit this older design ?
Much as I like fine stuff carried in fine stuff, all we really need is a camera body, a 35 mm lens, lots of film, some time, and an imagination. But a nice bag that works is a joy to use.
