I need a toploading bag for my EOS 20D and 70-200mm f2.8L. I really cannot tell what exactly is the difference between Topload Zoom and Toploader series. Also the one listed as Topload Zoom AW on Lowepro site looks very different from one with same name sold by B&H (link: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/controller/home?O=productlist&A=details&Q=&sku=98437&is=REG)

On B&H it says that Topload Zoom AW holds the mentioned lens with hood reversed. What about Toploader 70AW, will the hood fit?I can buy that one locally.

I don't know about the Toploader AW, but I have the Toploader Zoom AW Pro, and it is the perfect size for my 20D or 10D with my 70-200 2.8L attached (with the lens hood reversed). :)

I beleive the ToploadZoom AW is the largest in the series. I have it and it holds my 10D with 100-400L with some room to spare. Nice bag for hiking.

ditto...

i have the larger lowepro toploader (i forgot the exact name), it will fit my 10d with the bg-ed attached and 70-200 F2.8 lens very easily.

I just went to a Camera store to update my Tamrac and looked at the Lowpro. I like the Tamrac system better. The Lowpro teh Camera points down so you can't put the Camera in with the 70 to 200 zoom on. The Tamrac has a cradle it sits into.

I have the Toploader 75 AW and it works very well my 10D w/grip and a 70-200 2.8 (hood reversed). Great support for the camera and lens. Also added a lens case and another small case to either side to support the 28-75, flash and other bits.

Works great!

Sorry I thought he was looking for bags not Top load pouch.
