It's really time for me to decide what bag I want to buy for Disney. I want to take my D80 with the 18-200 lens attached, my 50 1.8 and my 30 1.4. Wondering if this stuff would fit in the bottom compartment?
My other possibility is a Lowepro Fastpack 200 (not a slingshot).
 
I can't remember how large the 18-200 is, but I think you'd have room for all that plus a flash or another smallish lens, so pick those up while you're shopping ;) IIRC, I've had my D300 with the Tamron 28-75 f/2.8 attached, plus the Tokina 12-24, and a 55-200 along with the SB-600 all in that bottom compartment. It's tight, but doable. Plus, the top compartment is fairly large also. I'm quite happy with that bag.
 
I picked up that bag this past summer before our trip in August. As Jen mentioned, I also had my D300 with Sigma 18-50/2.8 attached and the Sigma 10-20 in the bottom section. With the grip attached to the D300, it was almost too snug but was barely doable. There seems to be plenty of other sections to stash various items. Not a bad bag at all and I found it really comfortable. One thing I did was use some Op Tech connectors to hang my camera from the D-rings on the shoulder harness. It gives a perfect balance to the bag and keeps the strap off of your neck.
 

I looked at the rucksack in the camera store and really liked it, but my 70-200 lens would not fit in the bottom or top compartment. So, I ended up with this bag

So far, I really like it. It is a back pack, but can also be worn as a sling and has a side access panel. It does come in smaller sizes, but I needed the large size to accomodate my camera with 70-200 attached. I also looked at the fastpack bags, but found the Kata to be much more comfortable.
