Does anyone have experience with the Timbuk2 Snoop Messenger, Small? I've decided I want to take my camera to work with me.

I need a bag that will hold my a55 with lens and maybe one more lens and an extra battery, plus iPad, large eyeglass case, billfold and Kindle 3. It would nice (but not necessary) if there was also room for the Apple wireless keyboard.

Do you think this will work? It's on sale right now, which sweetens the deal.

This one? Can't say for sure but it looks a little tight, the small one that is. The larger ones are also half off.

I've looked at the Tamracs, and can't make up my mind between them and the Timbuk2s. I have a Tamrac holster that I bought when I got the camera and I like it. I also have a Timbuk2 envelope that I got for my Kindle. It's great, too.

One thing that attracts me to the Timbuk2 is that it doesn't look like a camera bag. Are the Tamracs like that, as well? I couldn't tell from the photos. I think the thing pushing the decision is the sale at Timbuk2. I don't want to decide it's the one after they go back up in price!

Yes Tamrac Rally is messanger style bag. I have Rally 6, in paded area I can fit A55 with Sigma 17-50 F2.8 OS HSM, Tamron SP 70-300 F4-5.6 DI USD, Minolta 50mm F1.7 and Sony HVL-F58AM flash without any bulging. I think Rally 5 would be better fit if you want to carry iPad and Kindle

Ok. Tamrac it is. The extra nice thing about that is that since it's not on sale, I don't have to rush around and buy it. I can wait until the first of the month ... and my next paycheck !!

Thanks for the help. Dyxum rocks!
