Hi Markus,

Nope. There are just too many lenses here for this approach. Mostly review lenses, but I (still) change my own lenses often (too often maybe).
In addition, I lately tend to use the smallest bag possible and try to take only those lenses with me that are required to get the job done.

Ah, I forgot about the review lenses. And I feel quite happy with my current lens selection (17 to 400 mm), although I will probably add a few more specialty type lenses in the future <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='
' />.
Personally, I find I always have at least the same three or four lenses and a few other items with me with me (17, 24, 50, 135, extender, extension tubes), in a bag I use for work (laptop and writing equipemnt also fits, although the photographic equipement makes up the bulk) and in order to always have photographic equipement with me. I used to carry three bags, which basically meant I left two bags in the car, missing too many opportunitoes as a result <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />.
The current setup works well for me, and as I have quite an assortment of bags (my wife continues teasing me with my bags - I have plenty more than she has <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />), when I go out for a specific photoshoot, I just pick the one I think will fit my need. Funnily enough, even in those bags I will always put certain lenses in certain pockets, always. It's automatic. Maybe I just suffer a little from OCD .<img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/laugh.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />
Kind regards, Wim
