Have this already Use this to take onto the street. A bit easier to hide than a D3. If you are looking for your first DSLR, get this. Since the D90 has come out the D80's price has went down drastically. Body only is now just about $100 more than a D40 with its kit lens.

Have this It is a well constructed bag, and it has tons of features and compartments. Fits everything I currently have.

For anything really, really, really, really.... far away. 100% definitely not for street use. Honestly, the only thing I would not take out on the street. I could deal with the D3 and 70-200 for sure. But not the D3 and 200-400.

Don't even think about putting the 200-400 on the 488RC4. You need to go heavy duty for a heavy lens. (I could not find the Wimberley head, so this was just for an example)

Ok, this isn't Nikon, but this is one item I could not go without. It will give you better pictures than any 35mm sensor camera, no matter how many megapixels. Aside from what you get in this kit, get the following (and a cable release, strap and a Bay 60-67mm or 77mm adapter)
