While I haven't owned a Tenba, I'm really happy with the small Domke that I
just got--I think it's called the reporter's satchel or something.  This bag
is perfect for one (maybe two) and few lenses--I usually carry an OM 1,
24/28/50/90(Tamron macro) a few filters and a good supply of film, but at
times I use it to carry all this plus a 135/3.5, extension tubes and a flash
(which becomes a bit heavy for shooting on the move).  Really it makes an
amazingly small and versatile set up. I like that it has a skinny profile
and doesn't swing around as much as my other larger bags.  I also like that
it doesn't look like a camera bag.  time will tell if its sturdy.  And the
price didn't seem outrageous approx. $100 CDN.
