The DC-445 can fit so many things inside? I can't seem to do so :(

If want to fit everything then I use my lowepro backpack. I only use the Kata if only need to bring few stuffs.
 

Have 3 crumplers - budgie smuggler for cam and novel, puppet for light travel (used in Sapa and around Chennai), seven million dollar home when i am doing a heavy walk around town.
Lowepro computrekker plus for dive trips

check with crumplers users..dun u feel that the material on crumples is damaging ur clothings?
hmm..i used to used MDHs..then backpacks..yes they are good..but seems its true that they do damage the clothes.having those small hairy cotton from the polo t..anyone have the same experience?

Not in the picture are:

-Sirui R1204 tripod + K10x ballhead
-YongNuo RF triggers for flash + bounce card + omnibounce
-YongNuo remote shutter release (wired and IR)
-Spare Sandisk CF cards
-Spare batteries for both camera and flash
-Blower + lenspen + micro-fibre cloth

During my lazy days, i will just forgo the Lowepro Fastpack 250 and go with my Crumpler 7 Million Dollar Home. I will usually bring my camera with 17-55/10-22 attached + either the former/latter lens depending on which one stays on the camera. The 85/f1.8 will only go with me when i forsee myself using it.

What stays in my dry cabinet most of the time is the 50/f1.8, unless i plan to use it on my baby niece, haha. :)
 

Erm, there seems to be very few photos in this thread hence i'm sharing my sunrise & birding back pack set-up to encourage more to share pictures of their bags and what's in it.

Lowepro ProRunner 300AW


Will post more photos when i carry my other bags and my bag inserts when i carry my camera in my non-camera bags

Erm, there seems to be very few photos in this thread

My guess is that, since people are photographing their DSLRs, they can't use them to do it, so they have to use mobile phone cameras and the result may not be very good, so they decide not to post the photos, or just not even try at all.
 

For me a 5MDH with

d7k
50mm
35mm
Yn467
blower
spare batt

with gf I will use a normal eastpak with

d3k
18-105mm
tripod
 

Mine will be a 5MDH. With my trusty 500D coupled with a sigma 24-70, nissin di622 with stofen attached, 50mm f1.8 II, a blower and spare cards, spare batt and depending on the situation a 18-200 or my canonet GL17 =)
 

On most assignments, this is what I usually carry

1.LowePro S&F 75AW (Old Style) with Sony A850 + Grip mounted with Sigma 70-200mm f/2.8
2. Two LowePro Lens Case 4S on each side for my Sigma 17-35mm and 24-70mm f/2.8
3. LowePro Lens Case 2 for my HVL-58AM flash

The 75AW is mounted on a LowePro Deluxe Belt with the 2 4S case on each side and the lens case 2 on the belt.

I also bring along my RapidStrap in its pouch as well as a blower on a karabiner.

I sometimes will also bring an additional case to a 50mm f/1.4 and a water bottle pouch.

The Deluxe Waist Belt works superb to distribute the weight with all the gear on. I only found out about that when I was on holiday with my LowePro Inverse 200AW!! I had my 2 short zooms on plus a couple more stuff... That's one of my best buys!!
