Probably the LowePro Minitrekker is the standard. Get the Computrekker if you want to also carry a computer in the backpack.

Both will hold the items you suggest and leave additional room. They also allow a tripod to be attached.

Good luck.

Scott

I use the Quantarry Pro by Nanneu Pro. It has a place for a laptop and it has the tripod holder also. It was like $80 at Wolf. I like it alot. Only thing is I just got a 17" laptop and it will not hold it. It will hold a 15 or 16 though.

I picked this Tenba up a few weeks ago at Precision in Austin for $99. Nice little bag and is weather sealed as well. Also has the tripod pouch which is a nice bonus.

I have this fototek backpack for sale on Craigslist for $50.. it holds a laptop and many many accessories.. I put my 30D, 1D MK2 N, 6 lenses and my Canon S3 IS in there with room to spare.. I only used the bag once and its in excellent shape. I thought I would use it much but I end up using my shoulder bag more than anything.

I have the Quantaray Urbangear U60 and I love it. Lots of padding and not too large. I can hold one body and 4 lenses. Too bad it says Quantaray on it... All the cool kids point and laugh

hi Debbi I use the lowenpro mini trekker AW and love it. will hold all your stuff you listed and will leave room for extra stuff you may need later and the ability to stap a tripod to it is a big plus when you have to walk to an area to shoot landscapes or wildlife.
