As some of you know I recently aquired a Rebel XT and some other cool stuff. Now I am in need of a case before June 10. I will need to carry onto an airliner and throught customs and all that garb, the following:
Rebel XT
Canon 50mm f/1.8
Sigma 12-125mm
2x Cokin P holders
Cokin circular polarizer
graduated ND filter
cables, batteries, chargers
iPod
thin CD case of DVDs
HP M360 notebook and extra hi-cap batt
small Pelican 1020 case
I could have this in two bags, but that would mean I would have at least 3 to deal with in the airport. Also finding a place for 2 bags on the plane wouldn't be fun. Right now I'm thinking of one of the Crumpler half-camera/half-'normal' bags, or one of their camera/laptop bags, or a Lowepro Rover AW II or Stealth AW II.
Any insight or suggestions would be greatly helpful
thanks!

| I just picked up a Tamrac Expedition 5 photo backpack and just love it. Lots of room for all my stuff. They are well made and comfy to carry. It holds my Rebel with my 100-400mm attached,Canon 28-135mm IS,Canon 18-55mm and Sigma 28-105mm. Also charger,portable hard drive, cords, filters and lots of other stuff. This is the best camera bag I have ever had! |

| I have a Roots backpack, and it is very convenient. I carry it everywhere with me, but now I'm looking at a belt system that I can use in the field and is easy to access lenses, filters, etc. |

I too have the tamarac Expedition 5. Carries all the gear in my profile and then some. I love how it can hold my tripod too. Very comfortable to wear. I went treking downtown detroit for a day and I didnt have to take it off once due to weight.

| The Tamrac CompuTrekker would be just about perfect because it will hold all you camera stuff including tripod, as well as a weather proof spot for your computer. I pretty much can carry everything I need in it and it fits carry on dimensions. They go for about $129.00 on ebay. |

I'm confused. I had a CompuTrekker backpack, but it was made by LowePro.
So, are you recommending the Computrekker by LowePro or the Tamrac backpack?
