Default Crumpler bag

I'm thinking about getting a Crumpler shoulder-bag that can carry my 1D (and/or 10D) and some lenses. Anybody using the 7 Million Dollar Home? How is it compared to the Stealth-series from Lowepro?

Taking a closer look at their danish site, they don't seem to sell it here at all. Not in their collection of photo-bags.

Well that's smart!
Anyway, I can see you have the Daily XXL, which is available here as well. It's also a wee bit bigger than the 7 Million Dollar Home. How much can you carry in it? I'm curious as to whether my Sigma 100-300 F4 EX is small enough to fit. It's about the same size as the 70-200L.

I can carry a huge amount in there, it only arrived today so I'm still not very used to it at all. So far I've fitted the following into it, just plaing around, 30D with 70-200 2.8 L Is attached, sigma 10-20, nifty fifty, canon 100-300, canon 18-55, my tripod head and centre column are in there. Still got space for a laptop 2 or 3 more lenses. Plus as many acessories as I could imagine anyone wanting. Please note though it is very large.

Yes, I know it's large, but I guess it has to be if I want to be able to carry the following:

-EOS 1D/10D (or both?)
-Canon EF 17-40L
-Canon EF 85 f/1.8
-Sigma APO 100-300 F4 EX
-Canon 430EX
-Monopod

Well yeah, I'll take some pics when I get chance of it being carried though, just so you know the size of it.

But it should be able to take those, is the 10D gripped and are you wanting anything mounted on the cameras whilst in the bag?

Too bad you don't have the 7MDH I have it and love the bag. Here is a nice review.

The 10D isn't with grip no, and yes, I prefer having something attached to my camera.

Then yes you could easily fit all of that plus at least another 4 small lenses/ 2 longer ones a laptop and more, so you probably don't need the XXL

I might be getting one anyway, because I would like to have the opportunity to bring along both cameras.

Well that would give you the option to, plus loads more in. But if you don't need that extra space, then maybe the L or XL would be comfier to carry.

I have the 7MDH and love it. I can carry all of my gear in it with room to spare.

Wait a minute...I think I've mixed the names. The bag I've been talking about the whole time is the XL, not the XXL. Sorry...
So you're probably right about L or XL being the best choices for me.
