Bags: Tamrac: 5605 Pro 5 vs. Lowepro: Mini Mag AW ~~thoughts? pics?

[JDubya]

I've been looking for a new on-the-go bag for a while now and these 2 caught my eye. What I want is a bag that'll hold my 30D with grip in a vertical position along with a flash and maybe a small lens. These 2 will do that just fine. Now I'd like to hear the pros and cons of each.

Does anyone have either, what are your thoughts? If you have the Tamrac, could you please post pics? :D

Considering both those cameras looks like Film, you need to check on size. Film cameras were much smaller. Also, depth would win me, so I could carry a longer lens. Next, Lowepro has the AW cover so there's a check there not with the Tamrac.

Overall I'm not too excited about Tamrac's bags in general. The expedition series are nice for size, but even then I'd go for the Kata 102 over the Exp 5. I like Lowepro, well made and have served me well. The AW cover is really a must have almost in Florida.

Lowepro's picture makes it seem smaller than it is. Cambags.com has a couple reviews of the bag and 2 people are using digis with grips:

Well then you know my vote.

I managed to find some good pics of the Tamrac (if anyone else out there is curious).

Does anyone have the 5605 Pro 5? I'd like to see pics of it on someone if possible...
