Backpack or Shoulder Bag...that is the question

[VVFF]

So let me start this off by saying I own a Crumpler 6 and 7 million dollar home. I have carried the 7 MDH all around Hawaii without issue but am wondering if Disney might be a different story. I intend on going a bit lighter in Disney but that means I'll still have my 6 MDH. I have a 7D and intend to bring my 17-55mm, 70-300L and possibly a 30mm Siggy(don't own right now) but that's dependent on if Canon wants to give me a nice new full frame camera to upgrade to between now and December.

So on most days I would have my 7D, 17-55 and 30mm. To Animal Kingdom I might bring my 70-300L mainly for the "zoo" portions of it...maybe.

Anyway, I've always been looking at a Kata 3n1-20 and thought it might be the perfect bag for Disney. They weight might be balanced a bit better and it has a tripod holder if I wanted to bring one one night. At the same time...its another bag that I may never use.

For those of you who have brought a 6MDH with you...did you have any issues or did a backpack work better? I've never had any issues up until this point but I am curious if a backpack would just be more "out of the way".

On our recent trip I used the Tamrac Rally 5. It worked perfectly for my needs, held our ponchos, 2 camera bodies, and 4 lenses. As far as a tripod goes, I dropped mine off at the lockers. The only locker that wouldnt hold my tripod was Magic Kingdom but they gave me a tag and stored it in the Stroller area, was way easier than carying it!

I carried the Crumpler 6 in Disney back in Dec. I thought it was just fine. I had my K10Dw/grip, Sigma 70-200 f/2.8, Sigma 24-70 f/2.8, Sigma 10-20 and flash.
