There are many available from Tamrac, LowePro, and Kata to name just a few. Check for ones that have a waterproof cover (most do) and will carry a laptop, and you're good to go.

I have two, both Tamarac. The Adventure 7 is a good, light and very functional. Small enough to carry on a Bus with room enough for a lot of extra things in the top portion. One full size body, 2 pieces of glass including my larger 70-300 zoom. Chargers, for both my camera, cell phone and other assorted stuff including shirts, socks and things. This came with me 2 summers ago when we were trekking across the UK.

The Adventure 10 is a bit big and heavy. A lot heavier but has room for a 17" Laptop and more room for more equipment.

Like what was said, both LowePro and Kata are worth investigating as well. I can't say for the others, but both of mine have protected zippers that prevent rain and moisture from getting into the equipment.

I think, I'll buy The Adventure 9.
Not4wood I have one more question.
The Adventure have weather cover or it's waterproof itself?

I will quote from the tag:

"Water-resistant zipper closure.
Constructed of strong Ballistic nylon and Polytek tm with a vinyl coating."

I originally wanted the Adventure 9 because of the perfect size for me. I ended up with the Adventure 10 because of a problem I had with the zipper and they didn't have another one, so they sold me the larger one for a discount.

Thnx for the K.
