Question on Panniers for a 2015 CTX700 DCT

I'm riding the 2015 DCT. It has the Honda side panniers. I'm looking for suggestions or advice here. One thing that frustrates me when I stop to get something out of the side bags is that they open to the side (vs. opening them at the top). Everything just comes rolling out. I carry cameras, microfibers, water bottles, extra gloves, extra eyeglasses, etc.

What do you guys do to keep things sorted so that when you open your panniers just to get a drink of water, everything doesn't all want to fall out? I thought about getting a different brand of panniers but the cost of that might be a lot? Or get some kind of pannier inserts that hold everything in place? Are there even inserts that fit these panniers?

Help!!! LOL!

All those cloth/woven shoppings bags you use for shopping fit in the panniers. And they are everywhere so for 2 bucks or less your problem is solved.
