I will be travelling via airplane with my equipment this year and need some advice. I asked before, but it was pre-Crash of 2006. So it's gone. Anyways, here's the deal. I'm 5'2" and women (aka -have hips!) I need a:
* backpack with will be comfy for a 5'2" chick
* will fit in the plane overhead.
* Holds 2 bodies, 5-6 lenses, flash, accessories, etc minimum
* 17" powerbook

BONUS:
* stylish
* wheels.

This is also going to be my local job camera bag as well.

I am not a chick but I do have a camera store and can get you any tenba bag that you want.

Trust me on this one-Tamrac CyberPro Express - Rolling Photo/Computer Briefcase #5263 The best out there. This is my only bag. I carry two bodies, two flashes, 5 lenses, turbo, laptop and bunch more. And it feets in the plane overhead. The only minus it is not waterproof.

Have Shaun order the Large Shootout bacpack. You'll love it.

Ditto. I traded my Ninja-turtle monster backpack (and backache) for that one and have no regrets. LUV the wheels.

Thanks ya'll!! And glad to hear first hand from another female that it's good for us hip-blessed women. LOL

I'll be ordering it next month!!

Okay ladies! My 5263 came in today!!! Woohoo.

However, I don't have a clue what the best way for laying this thing out. It's deep. How did you do it in order to access everything?
