Another vote for the Nova 4. I'll have to look into them. Don't see how it can be any good though, it's not outrageously expensive! ;-) Seriously though, one thing I'm noticing is that the Lowepro bags seem to be quite a bit more reasonably priced, and as good or better quality, than most. Especially Tamrac, which seems to command 20-30% more for similar features. One Lowepro that's impressed me is the Mini Trekker AW. It has some excellent features (especially the tripod "foot"), at about $120.00 it's reasonable, and it's built like a tank. The Mini Trekker Classic is nice but lacks many of the AW's features. One dilemma though is that I have a good bit invested in the Tamrac "MAS" accessories which, I'm sorry to report, are not compatible with the Lowe bags. :-(
