Hi all,
I am after a shoulder bag to carry a 5DMK2 Gripped most of the time, with about three lenses.
70-200mm F4, 100mm F2.8, and 16-35 F2.8, with a few Lee filters, and a few extras like battery, cloth, and CF cards.
Would a shoulder bag have access for a tripod?

What would be a good bag in your opinions?
Thanks for any advice :)
Ben

That's going to be one heck of a shoulder bag... :eek:

For that? Domke F2 with the 720-230 insert and the Post Office Pad. You won't find strapping a tripod to your shoulder bag is at all convenient because 90% of tripods are longer than any bag you'd reasonably want to carry. Thus the tripod would extend beyond both ends of the bag and present a hazard to you, your gear, and anyone else you're walking near. If you want to have a bag you can attach a tripod to for walk-around purposes, get a backpack and strap the tripod on it vertically. Just don't expect the bag to be convenient to work out of.

Thanks for the thoughts.
I have a Tamrac backpack, but fancy a slightly smaller shoulder bag. I don't mind holding the tripod as it seems that it isn't possible to have a tripod holder on the shoulder bag.

Any other shoulder bags to look at?

The Think Tank Urban disguises have attachment points for optional straps to hold a tripod. But as noted above, most tripods are longer than the bag so it isn't practical unless you have something like a Gitzo Traveller.

I have the TT Urban Disguise 10 and it would hold that, minus the tripod.

I would second the new Urban Disguise V2.0 as well though with a travelling tripod. Model 35 will easily take in all of your gear plus a 13.3inch notebook.

Cheers

The Billingham 207 would accept what you want. I have the tripod straps for all of my Billingham 07 series and they work great.
