    sorry posted this in wrong sub forum , not sure how to delete , apologies in advance

    Hi ,

    Just wondering can anyone recommend a good camera bag not too big and bulky either that will hold a canon 28-300 lens , camera and maybe one other standard lens. I particularly like the slingshot bags but just wondering which one would suffice that wont be too big but will comfortably fit camera and these 2 lenses.
    Thanks

    You can't go wrong with Billingham. They are excellent quality. You can check Warehouse Express online. They are expensive but well worth it.

    Hi Scholes,

    have a look at the LowePro
    http://products.lowepro.com/product/Apex-140-AW,1903,20.htm
    Some pics on this page etc:
    http://www.digitaltoyshop.com/Camera_bag_APEX_140_AW_Lowepro_t1926_5606_1

    Its small but fits my:
    EOS 550D with either 18-55 or 55-250mm lens attached no problem.
    Which ever lens isnt mounted will fit to either side of the camera
    The other side has loads of room for 2 circular filters in cases a battery.
    Theres a holder for sd cards in it and several slimlined pockets.
    You could possibly fit a small flash in there two?

    its basically a shoulder bag small enough for taking a DSLR to a function or something you dont want to take a backpack with you, and still have the option of bringing 2 lenses with you.

    Hi scholes,

    you could take a look at the Lowepro toploader 75 aw it will take a pro size SLR and large zoom lens and can even hold a flasgun in the external pocket
    http://products.lowepro.com/product/toploader-pro-75-aw,2131,8.htm
    or the Think Tank Streetwalker pro which will hold a Body with large lens attached plus extra lens etc, there is also a smaller version the streetwalker which is very nice too.

    hope this helps

    I have the smallest Slingshot, the 100 AW, and it holds a fair bit more than what you described:

    Very flexible, very tough, very easy to carry when you're walking around
