I have the Lowepro Magnum 200 AW which doesn't seem to be sold anymore (on amazon) so something like this seems like the next gen of it.

Great bag, had this for many years.

Even though we purchased an RV and still have that same RV 5 years later when it came to camera bags, I changed a few times as the camera gear kept changing.

Hopefully you have more stability on camera gear/bag than I did.

Here's the info on the storage cards. You'll need (want) both XQD and SD. The slots are side by side. One can store RAW and the other JPG is how I use them.

For the bag, when my gear was small and light enough I absolutely loved the LowePro sling bag.
Able to slide it around the shoulder and remove or put camera gear in/out without putting the bag down on the ground. As a landscape photographer I loved this feature.

Downside - when in sling mode, it is only a single strap, so it doesn’t distribute weight on 2 shoulders, which became a pain when on multi-mile treks.

I have a camera bag backpack somewhere, I think this may be the one from my order history:

Don't use it.

I spent some time on their site, and the one thing I came away with is, I don't know what I don't know. So what bag would you suggest for a camera, a couple of lens's, batteries/charger, etc.?

Jim,

Peak’s bags are quite unique and very flexible. I use the Messenger Bag, exclusively, for my “light” carry. I can pack a spare lens, blower bulb, full body/battery with lens, spare batteries, and filters…and still have room for other items. It’s great to sling around your shoulder, or set onto a shelf on our coach too.

I’ve loved LowePro in the past, but since discovering THINKTANK years ago, they’ve become my favorite. This is what I’d call my “storage” heavy bag; it’s the Airport Roller Derby bag. It has incredible construction, top-quality…not cheap, but who cares…I’ve had it for years and years and it’s the perfect bag for what it does. It sits on my shelf and can be ready to roll any time I wanna take my entire cache of camera and glassware.

This is one of the Airport series; they now have a few models/sizes:

P.S. I just LOVE spending money…especially when it’s SOMEONE ELSE’S!!

And THIS…is why I’ve been personally banned by so many wives from calling their husbands! Sorry…not sorry.
