So, I'm getting my first months full time wage at the end of July and I fancy treating myself to a backpack for my camera 
So, what do you guys have? Don't really want to spend anything more than £75. Must have storage for the body, couple of lenses, then other bits and bobs. Would be great if it had another section for storing other bits like drinks bottle, food etc.
Any help or info would be great. I was thinking this, the prize in Amateur Photographer every for the user submitted photos, but I can't find it on their website.

I've got a lowepro slingshot 100 which might be a bit small for what you want to carry but the 200 would probably be ok, and a decent design stops you dropping your camera

Hmmm I was ideally after a proper back pack for when I go walking and what not.
The 200 only seems to store what I want for the camera, but nothing else. Didn't think of the Lowerpro website though

The d40 I bought came with a lowepro Altus 160 bag.. It's quite a good bag tbh, room for body, lens and charger and leads, has a front and side pocket too and one of the side pockets zips open for quick access to your lens.. Probably room for a couple cans of pop across the top too

I use the lowepro slingshot 100. Its ace, use it walking and on my bike, it has obviously the main shoulder strap but to keep it secure there is another smaller one that comes across the other side. I dont tend to carry drinks and other stuff though when im out.

Forget the slingshots they aren't as big as you think.
Lowepro Mini Trekker AW is what you want. It's a tardis of a bag.
