I am looking for a nice camera backpack to hold my D70, a couple of lens, for now, but maybe a third, a couple of flashes, and some room for my camcorder. I have looked at the Mini-Trekker 200 from Lowepro, which looks about the right size. Any other ideas from anyone?

You may not get all of that in.
Sure, camera, coupla lenses, coupla flashes; but you may struggle to get the camcorder in as well.
This is a very well-made back pack.
The only negative comment I have is that (on my frame, at least) it doesn't sit exactly where I would like.
Perhaps you can try in the store to make sure.

Look for a mini trekker AW or minitrekker classic AW

I still love my Copu-Trekker AW. Holds my d70 w attached 70-200vr, 18-70 kit, 70-300D, sb800, filters, mini-tripos, cleaning supplies, LAPTOP! and lots of extra little goodies here and there. It also has a fold out tripod holder for full sized legs. You can get it at adorama for 129 us free shippping (Domestic I think) and a HUGE color selection (if you like black)

I'm with Birdy!!

I have one of these & you would be surprised at how much stuff I have packed in it.
One thing I know after yesterdays walk about, the thing gets bloody heavy after a few hours hanging off your back!!!!! But if you need something it’s right there with you.

I've held off but I'll finally say it....

Get a Crumpler bag.... (http://www.crumpler.com.au)

I personally love these bags one for there quality and two they don't look like camera bags.

I'm using the Lowepro Mini Trekker AW and I am very happy with it. Lots of room for everything

Crumpler Brian's Hot Tub... beautiful...

that is a very interesting web site.

My vote is on the lowepro bags.

G'day,
Thought I picked up a bargain... Anaconda in Bayswater are still having a big sale...

The camera bag I was previously using (LowePro Nova 3 AW) was becoming outgrown with all the bits 'n pieces, bought a camera "daypack" which is a backpack for cameras with a small detachable extra bag on the bottom...

Has heaps of very well padded compartments, a bag raincoat, very strong, well padded, life-time wartranty etc... Basically backpack design (with the padded side-wings etc)... $119! I think marked down from about $245... Access from the back, also from the top (water resistant zips). This is the larger one, but there's quite a range. Pics are complete with my toes in the way as I just laid it on the floor. No PP just dumped basic jpeg... Just thought I'd get that in!

In it I have the D70 with kit lens (the D70 part is empty to take the pics), 80-400, various filters, batteries, odds 'n sods etc... Will have room for flash or something else too...

Have bankcard will get bargains!
