3000 fo the body
700 if I have the XT
1100 for the 24-70
600 for the 17-40
1000 for the 70-300
600 for the 70-200 (but that's getting ebayed)
350 for the 50 prime
but as long as I don't drop it in the river (in which case any bag would be fucked) nothing will happen to everything at once except maybe get stolen... Plus I usually carry the 5D and never put it in a bag so that leaves just the lenses

I have one of those big Lowpro bags but I just use it to store everything. When I'm out I'll take the camera plus extra lens and put them in my smaller eastpak (normal backpack). Inconspicuous, along with my 70-300 DO

Here's my photo bag that I bought a couple years ago. I bought it because its not too big, wasn't expensive and it has modifyable compartments for lenses. Plus I think I can fit a 70-200mm f/2.8L in it if I attach it to the camera and lay it horizontally.
EDIT: yeah, just checked the Canon site, the 70-200mm f/2.8L will fit since it is 7.6" long and my bag has 8" space in front of the camera body, w00t

this should give you an idea of the size

I don't really need 2 tele lenses that cover more or less the same range at the same speed. I'd rather have the 135 mm L prime. There really isn't much difference between f/2.8 and 4. f/2, on the other hand is another story... especially when you can use that lens wide open with little loss in sharpness. If IS could stop motion, the issue would change completely.
