Do any photographers have a bag they consider perfect?

Not this one.
I used a LowePro messenger bag for quite a while, until I had the money to indulge myself.
Now I own a Think Tank Retrospective 2.0 (the tall one) and a Vision 15, plus a small Retrospective for my walk-round camera. I use a large Vanguard for gigs, as it holds a lot in one bag. I still have the LowePro but it doesn't get used. And I have a soft-sided canvas bag that I enjoy.
I just need a Billingham, or comparable, and I'll be set.

OMG those Billingham bags are SOOOOO nice, but pricey! Kind of heavy bags too. Last year at Photo Plus, I had the chance to hold one. These bags have some weight to them!
