Im torn between the 5mill and 6mill... i know the 6 mill will fit all i need, but i think it may be a bit too wide, 5mill seems perfect size, but not sure if it will fit what i want.. lol man i wish a store near me actually carried these things so i could look at them in person..
anyways, what i would like to carry is my 100-400mm (off camera) and rebel XT with my 24-70mm attached.. think that would fit in the 5mill? the 100-400 is a lil under 7.5inches long and like 3.5 inches wide at its widest..

6mil. The 5 mil looks like a purse anyways. I just sent my 5 mil back and got the 6, so much better. Plus it doesn't outwardly look significantly larger.

just go out and buy a 7 million dollar bag. i had the 6 million and it carried my 30d, 17-40, 50mm, 430ex, 2 hoods, with various accessories and it was packed.

I had a 5MDH. I used it twice. shoulder bags and walking around tokyo with it is just too heavy. I say 5MDH if you dont have a grip, 6 if you do. I'd just get a Domke F6 or something though.

The 7 million dollar bag is just not that big

Yeah, I just bought the 7 for my 5D with grip and plate. Holds two Ls, a macro lens, flash, and other stuff. Its not that big, and not that heavy. The 6 might be fine if you dont have a grip. The 7 is really not that big at all. I was shocked at how compact it is.

With those two lenses...ide personally play it same and go with the 6 just in case you ever need to add a lens or some accessories.

I just got the 7 Million Dollar Home, and I like it very much. I have my 20D w/grip, EF-S 17-55 IS installed. I currently have the 80-200 f2.8L, the 550EX, and there's still room for one or two more lenses. It also has a lot of room for filters in the flap (top), and adequate room for accessories in the front pouch.

This is my first Crumpler bag, and I like the way they handle a lot of the details.

Have Fun,

cant fit it in the 5 mill, so go for the 6 mill or 7 mill.

I have both the Six and Seven. When you actually see them, they are not as large as you would have thought. At least that seems to be the general tone from those who have bought them.
