I currently have a nova 2 lowepro bag, but its getting very tight in there. Looking for a backpack type bag, and have decided to go with either the mini or micro trekker.
Would the micro be large enough for my kit (including hoods for the Ls, the TC and flash I'm hoping to add, several batteries, remote cable and other little bits) ?

I don't have any experience with the micro, but I currently have the following in my mini-trecker aw: 30d, kit lens, 70-200L (w/hood), 75-300 IS (w/hood), 50m, sigma 10-20 (with hood), flash, 2 chargers, lg rocket blower, 3 batteries, several cards, 8 AA rechargeables, aa charger.
There is a little more room for some more little stuff. But it is getting heavy.

I have the MicroTrekker 200 and it's great it has my 17-40, 60 macro, 50mm and I leave my 70-200 attached to the body, it also has my flash gun and in the front pocket I have my charge and memorys card. And it still has room for my iPod and phone.
When I need to use my laptop I move all my gear to my CompuTrekker but 90% of the time I use the Micro 200.
All my lenses have hoods the only one I need to turn around is the 70-200, the other have the hoods on thr right way and fit in just fine

I use the Micro Trekker 200 too and its a nice fit for a body and three lenses. Think it should be perfect for you - including after a one lens upgrade ;)

I've tried Micro 200 before deciding on Mini Trekker because it was a bit too tight for my Sigma 100-300mm f4 attached to 350d.
Also I didn't like to attach a tripod sideways on the micro 200.
