scion99 said:To add, I currently own a D50 with kit len (18-55), zoom len (55-200) and a manfrotto 728b tripod.
I had heard alot about the superior material used on the crumpler bag which claimed to be water resistant etc etc. I will love to hear from users about their experiences with their crumpler bags.
As for Lowepro, I will also love to hear from other user about their experiences.
Then perhaps I can then make my final decision!
Many Thanks

The bag is splash proof, and the bottom has the detachable lining for my D50 with kit lens, 70-300mm lens, 50mm lens, flash and accessories. Top part can hold other stuff plus a section for laptop. Don't know about the manfrotto tripod though. comes in red, blue and grey.
Well worth it for its price. Go to any sports connection to check it out. and don't ask me for a photo of the backpack.
I have got A crumbler tallee, and an Lowe Pro omni Sports Pro & Ex180. All very good bags, but this urban equip is what I used everyday now. Nobody knows I am carrying my camera around. If is used the other bags, everyone knows I have got camera in there.

swiftdragon said:I think u can just go to sports connection to ask which is a photo backpack. They only have 1 backpack model for cameras. HArd to miss. The shop at Junction 8 has 1 red one left and a couple of blue ones (I visited the shop yesterday). The price is really $34 even though the tag is much higher.
