Ok, here's the deal.

I need a bag for wedding photography, so it probably needs to be a shoulder bag as I will be switching and swapping bodies/lenses regularly.

Here's what I need to carry:

20D + 70-200mm IS
5D + 24-70mm L
EF-S 10-22mm
EF 50mm f1.4
Speedlight 580EX
Accessories...

I bought the canon bag from B&H photo $50 U.S. works great for me. I keep everything in it.

Are you looking for a bag to use while shooting or to transport from business/home to event?

When I'm shooting I have the main camera+flash+bracket+e​xt batt, second body+flash hanging around neck or shoulder. To hold other stuff I use a Canon waist bag worn in front for easy access.


Happy Shooting!

I have the Lowepro NOVA 4 and the Tamrac Velocity 9. They hold everything and I don't like all the gear in one bag because I think the weight would kill me. I can keep the 10D and EOS 3 bodies with 3 lenses and 1 flash in the Lowepro. The other bag carries my "A" team and that is out with me all the time. So, at the wedding or event, I know exactly where the most used gear is.

Use whilst shooting.

I will have my trusty assistant with me, who will probably be the one who carries the bag, so I guess there will always be at least one body and lens out of the bag at any time during the shoot.

I currently use a roller bag for weddings, however I'm currently waiting home for a December Quarter (I love their bags but until I've tried it I don't know whether I can live with it at a wedding). It has double sealing (unlike the 7million$) and it'll hold my laptop too:)

I have a large LowePro rolling backpack, it just fits my two bodies, two flashes, and 6 lenses (inc 70-200 F2.8 IS), along with cards, batteries, light meter, business cards, diffuser, and a few odds and ends. Things only fit in one way... I have to have a specific lens on each body, and if one thing's in the wrong place I can't get it all in! Once I get a grip for my 2nd 20D i'm in trouble...

Tim, you are about 2 pieces of gear ahead of me. I'm in trouble if I get one more thing. I don't think I have room for 1 more lens of any size. AHHHHH! Something's going to have to go when I get my new lens in a few months. :)
