If you can fit them all in your hand luggage (dimensions must not exceed a maximum length of 45cm, width of 35 cm and depth of 16 cm (including wheels, handles, side pockets etc).

See http://www.dft.gov.uk/stellent/groups/dft_about/documents/page/dft_about_612280.hcsp

For more specifc details.
As long as you don't have any liquids and your bag doesn't exceed the dimensions above, you should be ok. Although when you go through security you will probably have to take them all out of your bag and send them through the scanner separately (Along with your shoes!)
Hope this helps

In all honesty, I don't think you would be able to fit all of that into your hand luggage. I flew this weekend for the first time since the security breaches, and was surprised to see how small the hand luggage allowance now is.

I travelled out of Manchester last week and took a video camera type case - I guess about the size of a large shoebox. Anyway it was slightly larger than the dimensions allowed, but no one stopped me and I think if you are acting in the spirit of the requirements you'll be ok.

I fitted in my digital slr and lenses, couple of ipods, phone, chargers etc. I also took a couple of plastic bags just in case I had to transfer my kit out of the case.
