Similar topic to another, but a little more specific.

I'm in the law profession, but I would like to carry my camera with me. Are there options for carrying a DSLR around in something that looks like a briefcase?

Think Tank Urban Disguise series is pretty sharp and business like and they have laptop carrying options.

If you want something more elegant looking, check out the Billingham Hadley Pro. It will carry a camera w/lens and 2 additional lenses.

Domke also makes briefcase style messenger bags, I like the J-803 but there are several sizes.

It is hard to go wrong with a Think Tank Urban Disguise bag, and they come in several sizes and some have a notebook slot as well.

Tenba makes some nice messenger bags, and a great "insert" which can be put in any bag which will accommodate it, turning your bag into a camera bag for 3 lenses with camera.

I agree with the Think Tank suggestion, and possibly the Lowepro Classified series, but if you have the dough, this is a fantastic bag:

That's a pretty big bag ... it is the same size as the UD-70!
It has a laptop sleeve, so is it deep enough for a pro/gripped body too?
Being leather, I wonder how much it weighs?
