I was looking for a camera bag that dosen't look like one, for concerts etc. I needed room for a standard zoom, a wide zoom + fast telezoom. The Passport sling is a tight fit, but quite usable and comfortable. The Sigma's could go in with the hoods in place, but I needed to leave the hood for the 17-55 at home, as well as the battery grip. There is a "camera holder" in the bag, into which the 7D + the two short zooms fit. Outside the "camera holder" there is an unpadded area that extends up into the "nose" area of the bag. I added a soft lens case in this area, and the 70-200 slips right into it. This area, or at least the bottom, could preferably have been padded by Lowepro. A 7D with a battery grip will not fit in the bag in any orientation

What works

Perfect for the job

Room for improvement

Looks like a turkey, according to my friends :-)

I was looking for a bag for an assignment in a very crowded place, no use for a big bagpack or shoulderbag. On the other hand, I had to walk for 15 minutes to and from this assignment in an area with bars and such. This bag proved to be perfect for the job. On the street it does not scream 'camerabag', in a crowded place place with the camera out it is close to the body and an easy way to change lenses and such. It is very flexible in what extra's you can take, plenty of space for personal belongings which can me enlarged some 30%. Or you can use that space for extra gear like I did with the flash. In the images you see a 28mm on camera and a 50mm underneath that , but that could also be a 85mm (hood reversed) or some other gear like the popular 18-55 and 55-200 lenses. It will fit a 5DmkII with 24-70L (hood reversed) but that is a tight fit. 50mm can still ride underneath it though. I like this bag alot and will use it more than I anticipated. It could do with one more zipper in a front pocket.
