I had the lowepro fastpack 350 which at best with 1 dslr, lenses, flashgun and trigers etc was at best useless. I have 2 dslrs now one is only a backup but will need to be in the bag most of the time.
Has anyone got any suggestions for a 2 camera bag with 2-3 lenses, flashguns and triggers etc?
 
I've just bought a lowepro flipside 400. You could get everything plus the kitchen sink in it and they had them on offer at jessops online.

Another vote for the Flipside 400aw. It's an amazing bag and extremely comfortable and secure if your travelling a lot.

Wouldn't advise anything other tbh.
But there are options like a Nova 200aw for just chucking in the car. Or even a Pro Runner 300aw. Tarmac Expedition 7x.
Plus many more.
 
The lowepro 400 looks good value for the size. Was thinking of a decent shoulder bag this time but the design of the front opening rucksack looks like it would fit more gear in.
 
Think Tank Streetwalker Hard Drive. Excellent bag. Unladen it weighs in way below Most Lowepro and Tamrac bags. Mine holds 5D Mk3, 450D, 21mm Zeiss, 70-300L, 580EX II, 50mm Zeiss 1.4, 7 82mm filters in cases, 500D close-up lens, oodles of CF and SD cards, spare batteries, remote release and cleaning gear. OH yes, and there's room for a laptop.
 
loweprow computrekker - can walk all day with it without noticing - takes all my gear and a laptop.

the inside dividers are (re)movable so you can change the configuration round to suit you.

only downside is it isn't as quick access as some other bags

Have a google for Tamrac bags. There's a whole range of shapes and sizes to suit most needs. I've got 2 bodies, 8 lenses, 2 flashes and a whole host of bits and pieces in mine and I've still got some room left for my Sigma 24-70 2.8 HSM that's on the way for my birthday next week.
 
Yes the tamrac bags look good too. Which model have you got? Would be really helpful if you let me know as you have the same cameras as me.
 
i myself started with a nova 180 aw bag, this was too small within weeks so i invested in a fastpack 350.... realistically in hindsight it wasnt much bigger so i also purchased the 400aw flipside.....

that lasted me a couple of years, whilst i expanded my kit and purchased extra lens and accessories etc....

i used to love the lowepro bags until i invested in a cheaper vanguard skybourne 53 bag.... im loving it!!!

this bag is a monster has can carry all my stuff so easily i doubt il ever fill it, plus its really light weight to carry and multifunctional/purpose and adapting also- cant recommend it enough its great!!
 
Hi Steve, sorry to be so long but I've been away. I've got 2 Tamrac bags, 1 is a Expedition 9x rucksack and the other is a Super Pro 14 shoulder bag and both are huge. I get the 2 gripped bodies and 8 lenses (including a Canon 70-200 2.8 IS L MkII and a Sigma 150-500 OS), a couple of flashes and other bits in the Super Pro 14 and everything but the Sigma 150-500 OS in the Expedition 9x. They're not cheap, but there is one on the Super Pro 14 in the classifieds at the moment if you can find it and it hasn't gone. I would of had the one in the classifieds for spares storage, but haven't got any room for it.
 
Personally, I am a big fan of the Lowepro Vertex series. Once loaded up, are ultra comfortable on my back; got the largest (the 300 series) and have since bought the 200 and 100.

The 200 easily takes 2 bodies (D3x & M9), 5 lenses (3 Nikon and 2 Leica), chargers for both bodies, 2 extra batteries per body, 2 hard drives, and my Lee & B+W filters. That's plenty of stuff.

The 300 is even bigger than that, my wife says makes me look like a turtle with that thing on my back :p
