I am after a new bag just to carry my 20D with one lens attatched. More than likely it will the my 70-200 f2.8.

Does anyone have a crumpler style bag that can tell me if they make one that will fit this combo? i don't want a big one with loads of extra space...small and just enough room for this set up is key.

thanks

Hi, yep' I have a crumpler bag, medium size and find it pretty useless to be honest. It's okay for a small camera and short lens, but it won't take my 300D with the battery grip on it and it certainly won't take my 17-40 lens and hood. For a 20D and a 70-200 lens I would recommend a rectangular bag so you can leave the lens attached.

crumpler 6 million dollar home or 7 million dollar home. Or the Company embarrassment. check out their website for dimensions. I have the Tall-e or Tallee and it fist my 20D w. grip + tamron 28-75 in the top compartment, and my 580ex, 18-55, and 50 1.8 in the chamber of secrets. it's a perfect fit.

I was looking at the tallee.....how big is the tamron 28-75? does it leave any more room?
can you join both chambers to make one big one?

Do you think i could get a 20d with 70-200 attached into the tallee?

Thanks

tallee is a bit too small to leave the 70-200 attached. i can fit the 24-70 without hood attached on my 1dmk2. you could use a schrinkle backpack with it attached. otherwise, as has been suggested, the company embarassment or even the 7 million dollar home (you may have to orient body sideways instead of vertical). i can fit the 24-70 vertically in the 7million dollar home with the hood on so it might just be big enough.

I'm looking in to the Tallee too, but I can't find them anywhere in the shops in Denmark. Could anyone of you Tallee owners snap a couple of pictures? That could be really great!

I got the Bunny Man in the UK, which is slighly bigger than I expected, but fits less than what I expected if you know what I mean. The build quality is great and it fits enough for a good day out. I use this for day trips but prefer my Lowepro Mini Trekker For weekend trips and such.

The Bunny Man comfortably fits :

1 X 10D with 17-40mm attached, 1x 70-300mm lens, 420Ex Flash, and my Cokin Filter Kit.

Well after a visit to the local Crumpler store i decided on the 'Loyal Chap'.
The top part is just big enough for my 20D + 70-200 f2.8, i did have to remove all the dividers though.
The bottom half leaves room for a couple of other lenses so this should be good for a day out when you plan what you will need.
The store wanted £100 for it which i accepted and handed over the CC. "oh dear" said the assistant, 'We don't take credit cards'

'What"?? i said...."your loss"

Went home and bought it online for £74.99........... :-)
