Looking for suggestions for a suitable bag for the above, plus room for a 35mm 1.8g, spare batteries etc.

Thanks,
AL
 
I used the Crumpler Light Delight 6000 when I had that lens along with a Nikon 50mm and Tamron 28-75 f2.8 on a Nikon D7000 body. I find the bags very comfortable and light but giving protection for my needs.
 
I have the Tamrac Evolution 8 and Carry the following:

50D with 17-50MM attached
Sigma 10-20mm
Canon 70-200mm F4 non IS
Nissin Flash

It has side pockets for batteries and other bits.
Has a rain cover.
Laptop compartment which fits a 15.6" laptop fine.
Top compartment for storage,although this isn't huge.

It's not a cheap bag but very well made and I love it.

Luckily I got it in Dubai at about half the RRP :)
 
I don't know much about bags ... but always think it's a good idea to have one which is not an obvious camera bag, but I guess it depends where you are going. Here in London they are a target for thieves, we're talking equipment with a second-hand value upwards of £1k easily shifted on a site like Gumtree. Just a thought ...
 
Thanks all :)

Regarding not using an obvious camera bag - I've been using a 'trout bag' with DIY padding. Unfortunately, it's now just about half an inch too short to fit my 70-300 attached to the camera. Might be a larger size out there though.............

Lowepro mini trekker aw holds them easily
 
If a 'trout bag' is what I think it is, then that's a brilliant idea, just need a slightly bigger 'trout bag', that's all. ;)

BTW, I use what is probably the smallest Crumpler, big enough for a medium sized Nikon with 18-200mm attached + bubble-wrap for extra protection, which is also useful when shooting with camera on the ground or on a wall.
