Looking for a small bag for my trip to France and want to take a smallish bag.

Will the 5 Million Dollar Home fit:
Canon 5D2
Canon 24-105L
Canon 35L

I'm thinking small city bag that won't wear me down all day. (Or attract thieves)

Any advice helps!
Thanks

I would recommend a small backpack instead; walking around with that gear all day in a shoulder bag will wear you down and make your shoulder hurt. I use a lowepro photo hatchback 22L for that reason, and because it has rear opening which means thieves can't get to the gear.

I have a backpack bag that I will use for the actual traveling.
However, many places in Paris won't allow backpacks, so Im looking into a messenger style back for this trip.

I don't think a camera with one extra lens is too much weight for 6-8 hours out.

I keep hearing this, yet in all the times I've been to Paris I've never been told my backpack is not allowed. The most they've done is look at it and ask me to open it.

Thanks rt,
I will leave the 24-105 attached most of the time, and pulling out the 35mm indoors when I need a faster lens.

I'm guessing there's no room left for a flash?

I second that. It's a nice small bag for when you don't want to carry a bunch of stuff.

I emailed B+H at the same time I posted this message, and they also confirmed this bag would fit my requirements. I love that place.

Thanks to all. I'm purchasing another damn bag in which my wife will ask WHY.???

Yes, it will fit.

I have the 6MDH and carried more gear than that around NYC for days and had absolutely no problem. Was not tired after hours of carrying it.
