Take a look at the LowePro OmniPro bag. They work well for me.  /jmac

Subject: [OM] Looking for a satchel style bag


Continuing in my search for new gear before my trip. Right now my main 
camera bag is a Lowe Pro Rover AW backpack. I like the support and it 
carries a lot of gear but as a backpack, it's not as accessible. I also 
like that it has an unpadded portion for carrying other stuff but I 
find that it's a bit small so I can't use it as a regular backpack that 
also has some camera gear. The other drawback to it is that when I'm 
travelling I'll be using another backpack to carry my other stuff and 
managing 2 packs is kind of awkward. That said, it's a good bag and I 
do plan to keep it.

What I'm looking for now is a satchel style shoulder bag. I think that 
would be make getting at my gear easier and also be better to work with 
carrying a backpack as well. In terms of size, I need something that 
can carry 2 bodies with lenses attached and 2-3 additional lenses plus 
film and filters. The other criteria is I want to be able to use this 
bag for carrying work papers around so it must be able to also hold 
letter or A4 size papers and/or binder.

I've seen online that Domke offers some promising looking satchels but 
I'm not certain which one would fit my criteria and there's not a lot 
of detail on Saunders' site. Unfortunately, I've only been able to find 
one Domke bag locally, a F-3x which looks nice but doesn't fit the 
criteria I've outlined above. Any suggestions?
