Lovely looking bags, but don't they all scream "Full of expensive stuff! 
- Steal Me!"?

My idea of the perfect camera bag is one that doesn't look like one, nor 
like an expensive yuppie briefcase.

My camera gear used to travel in a generic backpack I got free with a 
pair of boots. Now it travels in a Canyon backpack with the label 
removed and has better internal organization and padding. But the bag is 
muted, blah colored, generic, boring - perfect.

In the field, I use a LowePro Photorunner. It's small, so you have to 
pick you kit carefully and work out the packing layout. Depending on the 
lens sizes, it should carry the two OM bodies and 3-4 lenses specified. 
Since I only use it in the field, I expect to have one body and lens 
around my neck and the bag has plenty of room for lenses, hoods, etc., 
and sometimes another body.

I like that it can be worn as a waistpack, with good, wide, solid strap, 
or from the shoulder, with a good shoulder strap, light, but good shape 
and grip on clothing so it doesn't slip off easily.Anybody looking for 
camera gear will probably know what's in it, but it is plain black and 
rather inconspicuous.
