Hi Michael,

Another consideration would be the "backpack" type. I have a Lowepro
Mini-Trekker and it works really well. Holds plenty and everything is on
one level which simplifies retrieval of lenses, etc. Also is nice
sometimes to carry on your shoulders instead of the usual carry at your
side type.
