Default What's In Todays Bag?

Go back in time, to about the late 1970s (what do you mean ? you were not born then!).

Look into a typical camera club photographers bag and it was very likely you would have found the following gear.

a)Two camera bodies (one for B&W, and the other for colour slide work).
b)The following lenses-28mm/35mm/50mm/85mm and wait for it, a "big" telephoto lens ie 135mm.
c)A collection of many coloured filters (red,green,orange,yelow), a close up lens, cable release and a small manual flash gun.
d)A couple of B&W films and some colour slide films.

Note there were no Zoom lenses and no large spare battery packs in the bag.

Its year 2006 now, so what would be common/typical in todays bag??

regards Subzero.
