I have four of the AW series Lowepro bags of different sizes, including a backpack that is sufficiently large to carry a Telyt 400mm and a good deal of R equipment. They are well padded and have a waterproof "slip-over" cover.The Mini Mag bag is ideal for two M bodies, four lenses, light meter, etc. I like them for traveling because they are sufficiently well padded to take some hard knocks without damage to my "pets". While I'm on the subject of damage and pets: Although I frequently shoot on the streets in San Francisco, sometimes under rather tricky conditions I don't get much attention from muggers. I have a 80 lb German Shepherd who accompanies me. We've done tracking and protection work together, so I don't worry about his instincts or my back side. I can just "focus" on the job at hand. It's reassuring. - --Gib
