Country mama made good suggestions. Add Tarmac, and ck out Amazon
http://www.amazon.com/Cases-Bags-Accessories-Camera-Photo/b?ie=UTF8&node=172437Don't forget your local camera stores, bhphoto, Adorama, Craigslist, and eBay. There are many suppliers and be assured it will not be the last bag you will buy. Do a search here on UHH and you can find many suggestions previously discussed also. I will add that I personally have never found a bag that will do it all, hence I have many different ones myself and still look for the unattainable perfect bag which is not made.
They make good bags. I have their Fastback 350. Nice bag. Check Think Tank, too.
The best advice I got when buying my first bag was to remember that there is no perfect bag. 5 bags later.....
Here is what I have been doing for years. First, I don't try to fit everything I own in one bag. I use multiple bags, each for a different purpose; e.g., my infrared bag.
Also, I stay away from traditional camera bags. They cost way too much, they generally are black, and can be spotted as a camera bag by those who like to steal high end cameras for drug money. I find my bags at places like Bass Pro Shop, Cabelas, Home Depot, OSH, Lowells, etc. Keep you eyes open and be creative. For example, check out the various soft sided fishing tackle boxes, lots of bright colors, lots of compartments, and dirt cheap when on sale. Look at shooter's range and/or rifle bags.
If you buy a photo accessory at a camera store, you will likely pay three prices for it. If you can find something that will do the same job elsewhere, you will likely pay less and find something that will fit your needs better.

Go to LowePro's site. They have an interactive app there that helps you choose a bag depending upon how much equipment you want to put in it.

Hope I'm not moving too far from the OP. I'm glad to see this question too.
I've been waiting for something to come up on Craigslist, looking at eBay, etc. hoping to get a decent deal.
But I appreciate mooseeyes comment about staying away from traditional camera bags...etc. Always wondered about that.
In going non-traditional as an option, what do you do for padding, and dividing compartments?

Sad, but true. You want one that will carry all your gear. Then you need one just for the day's shoot. Then you need one that carries gear and clothing, then ...

When I invent a product, I'm going to add Pro to the name. Or maybe Heavy Duty. Or Platinum Edition.
