I have two Billinghams. They are very good and very rainproof (a rubber
membrane is laminated between two layers of canvas) but HEAVY. I do
not use them much anymore. In my home terrain, I prefer a light body-and-
one-lens bag, perhaps with a macro lens in a pocket somewhere. When
backpacking, I keep camera gear in the top of the pack, where it is well
protected from rain and tumbles. Olympus cameras are light -- enjoy that
instead of loading yourself with more gear!
No camera bag is dustproof. In places like sandy deserts and African
savannas, where dust and the vibrations of all-terrain vehicles are the
great enemies of cameras, the best option is an aluminum box with a dust-
and wetproof gasket and a soft foam interior.
