[Leica] Off & Tired Topic Warning: the Billingham Hadley Pro — Backpack?

[Jayanand Govindaraj]

Greg, Ken, and anyone else who might want to chip in -

I need a medium sized backpack for a trip into Borneo in April - it has to
take two Nikon bodies attached to a couple of medium size lenses and a
normal zoom on the side. Never ever used one - I tend to use rollers or
shoulder bags, but this trip includes hikes in the forests daily. Where do
you suggest I start my search? I cannot just walk into a shop and try
samples here, such facilities are just not available.

Cheers
Jayanand
