Who is going to carry all this stuff ?  I don't want to have heavy load on my 
back the whole day.  It is too heavy as it is.

What I have in the bag right now:

*ist D
Pentax 16-45/4 - my "normal" lens
Pentax 70-210/4-5.6 - squirrels and chipmunks
Tamron SP90/2.8 - macro and portraits
Pentax F50/1.7, for bugs, using stacked with Tamron
Set of extension tubes - using with Tamron and F50/1.7 for bugs
AF360FGZ flash - for bugs and to get rid of shadows in daylight
3 sets of batteries just in case.
the rest of the stuff is light.

I will probably replace 70-210 with DA50-200 when it comes out but only if it 
is better optically.  I am trying to have light and
optically great at the same time, I can live with f5.6 in exchange for less 
weight, D has ISO200 minimum so that is much better than
the film I was using before Velvia 50 at 40 and Astia 100 at 80.

I would like to have 400/5.6 in my bag for birds but I think that would be too 
heavy to carry all the time.
