Hey everyone,
I decided to post on how much stuff I can fit into my all-time favorite backpack, the Lowepro Flipside 300. I've compiled what I think is the perfect travel kit for me based on my interests and recent trip to Banff National Park in Canada.
My main interests are landscape and wildlife photography with a bit of everything else thrown in (babies, candids, street scenes, etc.).
Even though I've owned dozens of bags, for shooting purposes (and packing purposes), the Lowepro Flipside 300 just does what I want. I've owned bigger bags (and still have the Lowepro Flipside 400 AW), but I don't see me changing any time soon.
Here is my travel kit. Let me know what you guys think.
Canon 7D
Tokina 11-16mm f/2.8
Canon 24-105mm f/4L IS
Canon 100mm f/2.8 macro
Canon 300mm f/2.8L IS
Canon TC 1.4 II
Canon TC 2.0 II
I know I should have a wildlife zoom lens in there, but I just can't seem to fit it anywhere. Also, the best thing is that I can switch my camera to be attached to the 24-105mm lens at all times OR the 300mm f/2.8 lens (with or without 1.4 tc) without re-configuring the bag. I love it!
Thanks for looking, and happy shooting!
