I am considering about buying a Crumpler 5 Million Dollar Home and wanted everyones impression on it.

I will be carrying 1 SLR body (without a BG) with a EF-S 18-55mm (or the nifty fifty if i decide to buy it later) attached, Tamron 28-200mm, EF25 extention tube, and few accessories like CF cards.

So how is this bag? I have never been a fan of shoulder bags b/c I have this impression that itll make my shoulder tired by putting all that weight on one shoulder....but I do love the design.

Also, does everyone buy this online? I live in Tokyo and I cant seem to find a store that carries them.

I have the 6 MDH and it's nice, but almost too bulky. Very well padded, and rugged construction. I find that if you plan on carrying everything, plan on getting a sore shoulder. I like to minimize when I lug a shoulder bag. You might be okay with your current kit, though. I tend to like the shoulder bags better than the sling type bags because I think they are more comfortable. Give it a try. I bought mine on EBay, and Crumpler has an online site.http://www.crumplerbag​s.com …225&prodType=Ba​g&catId=22 (external link)
Good Luck.

yeah the 6 Million Dollar Home seems a tad too much for me. Size wise, I'd want the 4MDH, but with the equipment and other stuff I carry around (like my iPod and PDA) I'll probably need the 5.

I have the 7 Million Dollar Home. My 1dsmkii, ef 24-70, ef 70-200, and 580 EX fit snug without much room for anything else. The bag is nice but I prefer a bag where the shoulder strap can be removed.


EOS 1DS MK III, EOS 1DS MKII, EF 24-70 f2.8, EF 70-200 f2.8 IS, EF 35-350 mm, 3-550 EX, 1-580 EX and other EOS film and digital cameras.

I have the Stunner which is equivelent to a Crumpler garden shed rather than the bigger mansions above. Build and design of the two Crumplers I've had have been top class. These are over built in fact and do a great job. I advise try before you buy if you can. I find the shoulder straps keep slipping off and the seat belt style strap tensioner just too big. Other than those comments I love 'em.
