In the main compartment of mine I carry a Sony a900 with grip and five lenses: 70-200/2.8, 24-70/2.8 Zeiss (big lens), 17-35/3.5, 85/1.4, and 50/2.8 Macro. Plus a few filters and another DSLR body without a grip. It's heavy, but it all fits.

Yes. The grip makes it snug and it helps to flip the camera body pad up to give a little more room. I have had the sigma 70-200 on with a 2x extender and a 24-105 in an adjacent slot. I like this pack. The built in rain cover is a big plus.

It will easily hold both. In the main compartment I have a 1DX with 70-200 attached. The 17-40 can sit in a side pocket. Still plenty of room left over for batteries, flash, chargers, etc. Have taken the bag all over Europe and Africa and have yet to find anything else close to it for quality.

Hi Stefan,Your 5d w 70-200 & extender plus one other lens should fit in the Flipside 400 w room to spare.

Below what is in my bag.Nikon 7000 with 18-200 lens.2 batteries and charger.Cables, remote control. Great bag, but if you are a 6' guy, it will look small for you. Bag pockets are customizable. When I was at Disney, I put in 4 Crystal Geysers water bottle with no issue.

It holds a 7d with a standard zoom lens quite easily. Battery grip, I am not quite sure. You can possibly check with the manufacturer. They respond quite fast and can get you the right fit. Consider adding the prospeed belt if you carry multiple lenses

Not exactly sure but I easily fit 5diii, 50 1.2, and 85 1.2. I still have room for one more lens. I keep the 50 1.2 on the camera and that goes in sideways into the main compartment I have created with the dividers. I put it in that way for easy access and keep the lens cap off. The 85 1.2 is in a compartment beside that which also has a small divider that comes with it so that you can stack lenses one on top of the other. Beside that is another divider where I can put the 25-105mm if I want. I can easily fit 3 to 4 lenses in this bag. I am not sure about a 70-200 it would be tight with that.

Mine was great. I can fit a 5D just fine with the Canon 70-200 f/2.8. I don't have the lens hood on, but I don't think it would be a problem.

Thank you for the information.I have a 10-20mm and 18-55mm at hand. I decided to purchase 50D with a 28-135mm IS lens and 100-300mm. I will appreciate if you can share your suggestion.Thank you and best regards,GO

I think Tom's answer is the right think to do, I was photographing off road races the last week and as. A test bring my Oly epl 3 with two prime MD lenses a 50 and 200, using the same adapter and works surprisingly GOOD, if you try everything and doesn't work may be its defective! good Luck always here to help if you need.

For what it's worth: I called Canon with a question about my 30D camera. I asked the employee which camera I should look at if I were to upgrade, and would my current lenses be compatible. He suggested the 70D, and said that my current two lenses will work with the 70D. He also mentioned that I could consider buying the 70D in a "kit" with the 18-135 STM lens, which he said is a good general-purpose lens that has some beneficial technology that takes more full advantage of the 70D than my two current lenses would.

Great bag, but kind of small...I have a canon 70d with attached 18-135 in mine, with a little extra room for accessories. An attached zoom would fit, but probably would not leave much extra room. It's really good for everyday carry, but if you need a lot of equipment, check on a bigger bag.

I have a t5i which is the 70d with a rode video mic pro and a light with a metal extension on the top to hold a led light and the mic with extended battery grip. So all and all I have roughly 7-8 lbs and it's working fine. With a kit lens and I've been playing with 28mm usm lens. I film a wedding at the end of October so I'll know for sure, until then it's all test footage

Photofun123-I am in a similar situation. What did you decide on and what do you think of it? I will be getting a 50d and only one lens. My main subject will be my toddler. I am considering 24-70 and 24-105. Thanks.

I've used this strap with the 70-200 f/2.8L II on a 5D III w/ grip + Plate + 600EX from the tripod collar. In terms of weight, I'd say that this thing handles it just fine (your shoulder is another question). There wasn't a whole lot of movement, but that really depends on how you situate it against your body, the orientation, and so on.However, I've never used this strap with a lens quite as long as the Tamron 150-600. I don't imagine movement would be much of any issue if you use the right placement and aren't running around. You may have to invoke the slide limiters (at least the rear one) while using it though.

Congrats on the nice lens! I have the 17-85. It's better than my 18-55, but I would love to get the 17-55 someday. Heck, I'd like to get a lot of different lenses someday! But being completely new to dslr, I think what I have now will suffice until I get going.

Here is what I read at Tamron and Canon,firstly the 17-50 is primarily built for smaller sensors ,like the 40,50,60D and so on, the lens is and EF-S even though its nit written as so,the DI format will work on a 5d mark ii or 3,but there are risk and it also states that there is only part of the sensor that will use the lens and work,so for all practical reasons, its a bust for big body,now if you decide to buy the Tamron 28-75 it is a EF lens and is made for both body small and large, Hope that helps, my next buy is the 28-75 ,if this current lens is good

I use this with a canon 7d and 70-200 4L lens. In the past, before upgrading my camera to 7d, I used it with a T2i and canon 100-400 L so the weight is sort of the same. I never mount the black rapid on the camera, just the tripod ring on the lens. When I used the 7d with myCanon EF 16-35mm f/2.8L II, I still have approximately 4 pounds of heft, so there is more unbalance, but not too bad. I also walk around a lot in NYC so there really is no other alternative to the sling camera strap for me.

I have two of these. One has a single 5DMarkII body, a 70-200 zoom, a 50mm prime and 2 speedlights with plenty of room in the main compartment for a filter case, mini soft box and other accessories. The other has a 60D and a Rebel XTI body, a 24-105 zoom, an 11-16 zoom, the XTI kit lens and a 75-300 Zoom with extra room for chargers and such. I imagine that a good rule of thumb would be that it would fit up to 2 camera bodies with 3 good sized lenses (70-200, 24-70, etc..)

Hello, It fits my 70D and has worked fine for me, I used it in the Maine Eastern Maine basketball tournament and also all last years high school football games with no problems, not having a 6D I cannot answer, but I have one on my 5D II and that also works well. Great price and great product.

You lose very little with this lens vds 70-200. The gain is the extra reach and wide angle, it a major upgrade. Having said that , and given the high $$$, I'd wait for the new model. New Model? I suspect so. Everyone, including Canon, is 'out-of-stock'. Couple that with Canon's receent announcment (July 2009) that they have a new IS that will be in 'interchangable' lenses by the end of 2009, it is not a surprise they stopped producing the 28-300mm so they could clear out the stock.I use the XTi- 40D and now the 5D mark II. The glass makes the picture.
