I'm looking for some suggestions from you folks in the know...

Until recently I've been managing quite happily with one of the smaller Lowepro shoulder bags for transporting my gear around. A number of recent purchases mean I can no longer get all the gear I want with me in the bag so I'm looking to get hold of something with a bit more space.

Basic requirements are:
Needs to fit a K10D with grip and DA16-45 fitted plus an extra lens, flash, spare battery, memory cards.
Ideally a shoulder bag rather than a back-pack
As compact as is possible while still fitting everything in.
I'm not too fussy about manufacturer but it's easier to justify if it's not too expensive.

Any ideas, suggestions of things to look at?
I have a ThinkTank Urban Disguise 60, which looks like a medium flight bag but is very deceptive. It takes more than you want but there are several smaller sizes which sound about right.

It has lots of large external pockets and some come with a laptop slot as well. Has shoulder strap but you can buy a very useful backpack harness as when you want to walk any distance which filds up neatly in the bag. It also has a rain cover and is extremely well made.
Cheers, Steve
