I use a bag that used to hold the following perfectly:
- Canon 20D
- 100-400
- 24-105
- 12-24 Tokina
- 50 1.4 and an extender

Now, with the new 7D, I am forced to carry two bags. Would love to get a bag that can hold the lens set as above but manage two bodies.

Thanks for your suggestions...

What bag? If you've been happy with it I'd just look for the next size up in that mfgrs lineup. If that's not an option, I'm quite happy with the Tamrac Expedition series of backpacks. I would take a look at their site, and start with the 7 series or larger.

F-stop Guru.
I have 7D, 5DmkII, 17-40, 24-105, 100-400 and 100L all in a Medium Pro ICU. fstopgear.com Great ripstop fabric, frame, good straps, modular with different ICU sizes. Also check out Dan Carr's review for better pictures than the f-stop site. Only downside is price and sometimes backordered. http://dancarrphotogra​phy.com …k-at-the-new-f-stop-guru/ (external link)

If you want to carry two bodies, consider the Lowepro Pro Runner 450AW.

OK, requirements changed :)

Want to pack my MBP 15.4 also into the same bag - most of my trips, I end up taking it. Was looking at the Lowepro pro runner x350 roller or the Lowepro pro runner 350.

Anyone use these? Is it too big for the gear that I have? Any pics with gear esp two bodies will be great....

Also, why pro runner vs pro trekker?

I have 2 dakine backpacks. A sequence and a reload.

I love dakine photo backpacks. Any of the ones they have will carry what you need.

In fact any camera bag maker will have a backpack to fit what you need. Just depends on style I guess. Think tank, lowepro, kata, Tarmac, f-stop and so on
