Thanks Steve, I too have some (5) very good bags. Since I am a DIY person and a master mechanic, I have modified most of my bags to make them more impact resistant, theft proof, added designer adjustable compartments, or pockets to hold accessories etc. But here is the link to the excellent Swiss Gear Sling Bag I bought on a Boxing Day sale from Costco Toronto for CAD 45 - CAD & USD almost at par then.
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/79fesol55jzwxjz/o1exY0Dpht The sling bag can take in my K-5 with a decent sized zoom say the bigger Sigma 70-300 + (2) other zoom lenses like the Sigma 10-20 + the Pentax 18-135 WR or just one big zoom. I can put the extra K20D body in the top compartment. I can also accommodate the Grip + the Flash Gun. The Tripod can be fastened to the straps outside. Plus you can hold plenty of accessories, filters etc in the front and side pockets. Has a rain cover too. I also have a rather big camera Pro Backpack with the waist belt you mention - came gratis with a (3) year subscription to a Photo Mag. But the most useful is a compact (2) compartment Meade padded Lunch Bag - discrete, and a compact Japanese Camera bag that allows access to the empty spaces between the lens and the LHS + RHS camera body sides from the outside zippered compartment. What Japanese ingenuity - these spaces have rectangular padded inserts held by Velcro to prevent damage to the lens or the body - stores an extra lens, battery, filters, remote, lens pen etc. Regards. Bipin - from that far away enchanting land. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
