Lowepro Slingshot 200 All Weather(AW) to grab 'n go with just a couple of lenses.
Lowepro Fastpack 350 for longer around town/city trips. Larger than the Slingshot, but no AW cover. It has enough room for waterproofs, a sandwich or two and some water in the top.
Tamrac Expedition 7X for trekking round the mountains. This one facilitates taking a tripod too, the Lowepro's I have, don't.
I had a Lowepro Mini Trekker but it wasn't quite big enough for a tripod carrying backpack.
I don't like shoulder bags at all. Pentax are best at making cameras and lenses, not bags.

you resort to compasses and lists of when it should be visible.... it's time you either stayed indoors or got out more I mean your not exactly looking for a comet
I've got a little program called Clockwise running in my tray that gives me all that kind of information. It's also on a digital clock/weather centre I've got.
One very good program that I haven't got on my computer at present is Atomic Clock which actually shows a World Map on the screen with the sun actually rising and setting in real time showing the areas of light and shade... quite good to watch. I think it was v6, but later versions probably have it.

Thanks Peter, When I bought the K20D in April 08, I thort £140 was a lot for the AF360. I had a cunningly plan which went like this, the price will come down next year so be cool and just wait. Well here I am, we have the recession house prices are falling but for some strange reason pentax flashguns are rising! Is this Gordon Brown and his Darling conspiring to right (or is it wreck) the economy at the expense of Pentax users?
Consumer electronics items are made in countries where they still like to make things that people want to buy.
Sterling's value has plummeted so now those things cost more to buy.
