Buy the Tamrac Superlight 8.  It will fit everything you list and is a
lightweight and padded bag.  The Domke bags are not padded.

Help,

Can anybody help,

Equipment to carry

2 M6's
90mm f2.8
35 f2
21 f2.8
50 f2
Small Leica CF Flash
30 rolls of film  each trip approx.
Gitzo Table tripod 


I need a camera bag to cover the following trip this year

*	2 weeks Mexico/Belize
*	1 weeks Boat Diving
*	1 Week trekking to Mexico City.
*	3 weeks trekking in Borneo

I will be carrying either a day pack or a full ruck sack so I think a
rucksack bag maybe a problem.  


I have had the LOWEPro Orion AW which fits on the waist but it is to big.
Other ideas I have toyed with are.
*	2 small Orion mini bags
*	A Pelican water proof case with a Lowebag inside for trekking.
Leaving the hard case in the ruck sack.  

Basically I needsit to be 

*	Compact
*	Comfortable to carry
*	Either waterproof or highly resistant so I can leave it on the boat
when I go diving.

Many thanks in advance

Regards


Darrell
