I need a bigger camera backpack. I'd like to get one that can fit more than what I currently own. 1 dslr, 2 zoom lenses, 2 prime lenses, a flash unit, plus room for more stuff, carry a tripod, and lots of little accessories.
Are there any bags that are modestly priced? Anyone selling one?

I have Lo Pro which I have retired. It has only been on two cruises. It will do all the things you listed. I research the price if you are interested.

Which model LowePro is it? I have the LowePro 400aw now and it is a tight fit for my gear.

I use the Lowepro Pro Runner 450 AW DSLR Backpack and it can hold quite a bit.

Sorry, I do miss the point. I am a bit naive. :roll:

It is thick (deep) and can get heavy when completely loaded but the waist strap does a good job of distributing the weight and at 5'7" I can still carry it without any problems.

Guy, unless I'm mistaken, the 400 is pretty big ?
I have a 350 and its too big for a daily shooter. It will hold twice what you mentioned! ;-)

I have the Lowepro 350. I had to decide how big I wanted to go. There's a fine line between having everything and traveling comfortably. The 350 is fine for me because it holds only so much, and that's my limitation.

Take a look at the Domke 410. Excellent tripod holder and lots of space.

I've done a lot of research and I have found the following backpack from B & H Photo in NYC to fit my need at a very modest price. Take a look
