Empathy to ya Charles. I have had my share of bag related fumbles.

Is there a relatively-small (and not too terribly expensive),
deep-enough bag which would be handy for day-to-day carrying of the
K10D with 16-50+lens hood attached, (plus a flash and another lens
or two) which would also let me store the camera the way I like it?
(sigh)
And this just bit me today. I fumbled the bag when attempting to set
it down on a chair in a room with hard floors. The bag landed
bottom-side-down on the floor with a satisfying BANG and now it
appears that the frontmost part of the barrel assembly has a just a
little bit of wobble. Not a lot, but more than it used to have! This
is not terribly surprising as the hood/front of the lens took the
entire weight of the lens and camera in about a 2 1/2 foot drop.
:-(
Everything seems to work, but... I'll wager that one or two of the
probably-three screws around the barrel near the front are no longer
intact.
Damn damn damn.
