Simple: Domke J-2. Will all those 77mm lenses, it can get a bit heavy on the shoulder, but everything will fit, with a tad bit of room to spare :D

I own the Ballistic Nylon version. It has been to through everything imaginable, and still looks like its practically brand new. I have stuffed mine, with the following:
Main Compartment with 4 angle divider:
MK2N
5D/Grip
16-35/17-40 with 85/1.8 stacked either above or under
28-70/24-105
70-200
Front Pockets (2x) (L) Misc. (R) User Manuals
End Pockets (2x) (L) Smaller Flower Petal Hoods & Gerber Tool, (R) 580EX in Sleeve & Diffuser
Zip Pocket on cover: Batteries, sync cables, CF cards, pens, small notepad
Back Long Pocket: Whatever: snacks, water bottle, etc...

In other words you can Pack It till every nook & crany is full if needs be.

Smallish? That's a lot of gear for a smallish bag. I have the F-802 and there is a review for it here his forum. It does not look like a camera bag, more like a briefcase and it fits for me: 5D with 24-70 attached, 70-200 2.8 IS, 85 1.8, 580ex, 50 1.4, and 2 large pockets for anything else. It's what I use when I have to have 2 camera bodies with long lenses attached. But it is very sturdy and easy to carry. I'd definitely look into that one.

Already got an F802 but it wont hold a 1D body. It really is a small travel light kit for me, Its not taking 2 bodies, 85f1.8 (When i take it, i would likely take out the 1.4 TC), 100 Macro, second speedlight

I'd agree with Suzie about the F-802 being the one to go for. My progression's pretty much F-1x or F-7 -> F-802 -> F-3x -> F-5xB from big to small. Or try the F-4AF.

I was actually going to tell him about the f-5XB, but he didn't seem to want a "smallish" one.

People's ideas of "what fits" is different. I like things spaced and arranged so it probably wouldn't fit for me either.

The J2 would be a good choice.

I was out Friday with the F-802 with my 1D3, 5D, 580EX, 24-70, 70-200 and 15-30. But with 2 gripped bodies, your bodies are the biggest part and the minimum you'd look at is the F-2, which isn't enough smaller than the F-1x to make a noticeable difference.
