You'd probably suggest Fila you northern tramp.
Ive got a LowePro one, its not that big but i have no extra equipment yet so its just a D3100 body with a kit lens. i think i could get an extra lens in there at a push. You dont want anything too big, just the right size to carry the stuff you need. If you have everything in the same bag it will abviously heavy and become tiresome to carry round.

Dick Fila lol.
Anyway, as said, LowerPro.
There's been at least a couple of bag threads and they usually end up turning into LowerPro appreciation threads.
Most people rock 'em, it just depends on which size/variant you want.
I have an AW202 (all weather - comes with a rain cover).
It's a slingshot, single strap, allowing me to get to my camera quickly. It's not massive, but it's not small and it currently holds all of my kit - just about. It was £50 from jessops, so no doubt that you'll get it cheaper online.
This is the kit that mine stores: http://www.tomcash.co.uk/late-2012-camera-kit-update/
Now with an added torch and a flash - that's a lot of stuff!!

Oh cool - so do a search to see what bags people use, they all look s**t, so ask what bags people use and expect a different answer to last time
Good luck with that
Good luck with that
Well even if I was trying to be more helpful - here's the information you missed
- Style of bag. Backpack? Sling Shoulder? Journalist?
- Equipment. DSLR? Lenses? iPad/Tablet? Laptop? Rangefinder/CSC? Do you want to carry a tripod in it or on it?
- Design preference. Want something that's clearly a camera bag? or a plain style for security? or something a bit modern and trendy?
I mean you could just ask everyone to name every bag they've ever seen until something wets your fancy but it'd take a while.

Ant, I use a GEM rucksack if I'm out and about with my stuff:

Looks fairly gimp but pretty inconspicuous, plus I'd rather have people thinking 'hey, there's a bloke with a gimpy rucksack' than 'hey, there's a bloke with a cool looking camera bag. He probably has a couple of £k's worth in there...' Lol.
Of course, the illusion is ruined when you attach a tripod to it.
Regardless, I'm well impressed with it, it's plenty padded enough and has loads of room/compartments. Ignore the fact that it says 'for Canon', I shoot with Nikon and have had nae bother.

This.
Looking at mine you'd probably never realise there's a camera in there.

A little nerdy but holds all my kit safely.
I've got two lowepro bags, a slingshot and a pro messenger, both are the smallest variant they make but still have space for a body with a lens, a prime and a zoom plus spare batteries, memory cards etc. They're both the AW (all weather) variants so have a weatherproof cover attached that pulls out to keep everything dry if you get caught in a downpour. Happy with both tbh, both discrete and not nerdy looking nor obviously camera bags to a passer by IMO.

Tempted to upgrade to a 202AW as that might hold more as my kit is expanding !!

I use a ThinkTank retrospective too - one of the best bags on the market as far as I'm concerned and you can get a 70-200 on a body in it.
"Navy" N17 TWO
^ That wasn't long ago lol
I ended up with a Crumpler, from the states
It's the 7 Million Dollar Home - awesome & very comfy plus has straps for a medium tripod
LOADS of dividers - I have about 6 I didn't use for that trip!
It held my D3 with 24-70, Sigma 17-70mm, 50mm, Lee filter kit & the usual accessories
Had my D3 on the BR RS-7 most of the time for quick use,
clio 182 black /gold
I have one of these which i dont use. You could make me an offer for it.
