Smallest comfortable bags for traveling

[hokkaido88]

Wanted to stuff in 1D mark III, 580exII flash,70-200mm f2.8 and another lens.What's your recommendation for the bags.

In addition to that it'd be durable. I had a bag but the padding become thin and it start to torn apart. Does any bag has a durable padding?

I always liked the Crumpler bags. Can consider their 5 or 6 million range.

Lowepro bags are not inferior but they are usually not the smallest of bags. sweeetie did recommend the Mini Trekker but I am not sure if it can fit the 70-200mm.

I would second the recommendations on Crumpler, especially the 7 Million Dollar Home; that one can definitely fit all your gear.

Another bag you might want to consider if the Kata 3N1-30; it can fit your 70-200mm mounted.

Bro, based on your gears you would consider crumpler 7 million dollar house.

domke good, f-3x can fit

tot wif the gear ya using u should know more about bags by now

i thought of getting the domke F3x, but the thought of it unpadded leaves one uncomfortable especially when travelling u expect a bit of knocks. also, the price of around 230 for a bag like that made me see the hadley original to be more worth it.

hadley original is better constructed, well padded and can be used as a document/laptop bag. price different is around 40 bucks i think. can fit in body (if 1D have to be separated from lens i think), 70-200L and another lens, plus flash in front compartment easily.
