I always go with the smallest bag that fits what I need. “You have too many camrra bags” - my wife
Depends what im doing. I have a bag that fits 6 lenses, camera & filters + extra stuff that I would use sometimes (I’ve never seen a reason to go bigger than this one). I have a multiple inserts that go inside any regular hiking bag depending what I need to take for hiking/climbing/etc, then I have thicker heavier more durable backs for strapping splitboard/ice axes to that will take the impact if I fall without killing my gear. Then I have a small satchel style bag that fits camera with a lens + 1 extra lens if I’m just walking around somewhere.

I have so many bags - inserts, cases - It allows for a mission specific load out.
