This was my big present this year--a backpack style camera bag. It's very nice and pretty much holds all my (current) digital kit yet doesn't feel heavy at all.

The backpack is very sturdy and the design is well thought out, including rain flaps to prevent rain from entering along the zippers , flaps to keep the accessory compartment zipper tabs from coming into contact with the camera equipment below, and an extra strap to make sure the flap stays closed even if the zippers slid open (which I doubt they would). Only thing I would add would be either a place to store the belt strap or a way to disconnect it; I don't see myself using it very often, but would hate to cut it off completely.

The outer front pouch has all my manuals and could hold my A620 if I didn't want to carry it in my purse like I normally do. It also has a pouch and strap for carrying a tripod.

This is my Tenba Shootout Backpack, which holds much of my lighting equipment
