Default Good Travel Bag
I'm going to Uganda in June and I need a good backpack that I can carry on and have all my gear in it (Canon 7D, 3 Lenses, iPad, misc stuff). Anyone have a favorite trusty travel bag? I would love something versatile.

Thank you much for your help!

I like the Primus series from Lowepro.

Lowepro - Recycled Materials


They don't have as much space for photography gear than other dedicated photography backpak. But you have a big compartement on top for anything else you need during a long trek (lunch, water, spare clothes, etc). You also have a nice system for the tripod if you are carrying one.

This has come up in a previous thread - Need a new bag - any and all suggestions appreciated.

I put some additional links in my post.

My bag, I love it almost as much as my camera: Amazon.com: Case Logic SLRC-205 SLR Camera Sling (Black): Camera & Photo
