    I sold my Tamrac Expedition 7 last night due to having too much needed space. I'm looking to get another one, what do y'all use?

    I like it. I was also considering the Flipside 400 AW.

    I have a Lowepro Fastpack and love the thing. I love the fact that it is a backpack style bag. Excellent for hiking. It has plently of room and can also take a notebook. Great product

    I've got 3 bags right now, one of which I should try and sell more actively......

    Tenba Shootout Medium backpack. Main transport/storage bag. Works well, with room for all my gear. I also like that I can stow the backpack straps so they don't get caught on stuff. It will also fit a laptop. Tenba also has nice, waterproof zippers, and they include the rain covers too.
    http://www.tenba.com/products/Shootout-Medium-Backpack.aspx


    Tenba Shootout Medium Slingbag. My first sling, and quite flexible/versatile. However, it doesn't fit my gear that well (Nikon D3, 17-35 f2.8, 24-70 f2.8, 70-200 f2.8, SB900). I even had some custom dividers made. This is the bag I need to sell.
    http://www.tenba.com/products/Shootout-Medium-Sling-Bag.aspx

    ThinkTank Sling-o-Matic 30 slingbag. My latest bag, and it is AMAZING! Unlike most slingbags, you can quickly and easily change which shoulder it carries on, but the access to the bag remains in the same spot (on top.) Fits all my gear (a little tight with the D3 + 70-200 with lens shade) and even has some room to spare for small stuff. It can almost replace my Tenba backpack as my main transport/storage bag too. I just got back from a trip to San Diego with this bag, very impressed. The only drawback is the price ($190).

    I built a hard case using a rubbermaid storage bin. I lined it with foam and made compartments for my charger, lenses, mics, preamp, camera body, etc.

    My carry bag is a Loka from fstopgear.com. It allows me to carry both camera gear and some light stuff, like a snack or jacket.
