For this equipment is Nature Trekker maximum what you would need. If you skip Rocket blower, detach lenses from cameras, and press a bit, you can squeeze in also 300/2.8 without hood ;) So all together I managed to fit into Nature trekker 2x 1dmk2, 300/2.8 (with hood attached to outside of backpack), 70-200/2.8 (with no hood), 17-40/4 (I never use hood on this one, so... ), 1.4x and 2x converter, 580ex and 2 spare batteries. Cards etc. go into pockets of backpack ;) But I didn't like bugging with zipper with all that. Because it was pain in a** to zip backpack after loading it so much, I changed Nature trekker for Photo trekker. Now most of time, life is a bit easier :)

Can't tell just from the inside, but it's clearly a Lowepro. In fact, it looks a lot like my Lowepro vertex - GREAT bag.

I'd like to know what that bag is as well. I have the Microtrekker and like it alot, but I can't fit ALL of my gear it in anymore. One like that (in the pic) would be great for 2 bodies (one with lens attached) and 3-4 other lenses, 2 flashes.

Someone asked my wife what she uses to carry her gear. Her reply was, "my husband."

We have a Tamrac Expedition 5®. We love it. It's quite similar to the OP's bag of interest.

It looks very much like my Lowepro Mini trekker AW.

It looks like a CompuTrekker Plus AW

Notice the big loops on the outside of the camera. I used to make this bag, it was great but the zippers are small. Standard back back size and they broke. I emailed Lowepro and they said they don't have anymore of that model so they sent me the next model up.

This is what they sent me, and upgrade for free. I don't really like this bag, it's too small and the lap top pocket is in the top lid so it's really heavy and easy to drop when you open it. But it has decent zippers. So it's a toss up.
