So my black Crumpler 7 million came today and I was surpised in SO many ways!! First, it's huge! Big enough to fit everything in my siggy and about 2-3 more lenses!! :eek: And the inside is tan, not blue (it looks much better in tan than it did in baby blue). It's so well built, has 2 big pockets. The strap is comfy and the entire bag is so nice to carry - even fully loaded! I think my Nova 2 felt a lot heavier than this one (and I couldn't fit my fisheye or flash into my Nova!) It's an absolutely awesome bag - and best of all, there's room for more stuff! I can't imagine outgrowing this bag for a while! And the price was awesome - I got the bag for $101!!! :D

I was planning on keeping my Nova 2, and may for a little while. I guess it would come in handy when I just want to grab a small bag. But to be honest, the Crumpler is so much more comfortable, that I'm thinking of picking up a smaller million dollar bag and selling my Nova...

You're fitting a body w/ lens attached and 5 more lenses + flash in there? I've been thinking about picking up the 7MDH but maybe the 6MDH is enough for what I need.

I ordered this bag a few days ago and am anxiously awaiting it myself! Glad you are happy with it!

Yup - it all fits with room to spare! I had the 28mm on the camera with grip, the 3 lenses and flash surrounding in the dividers, plus there is space for another 2 lenses on top of those and 1 more on either side of the camera lens (depending on how big those lenses are.) But it doesn't look huge and doesn't feel that big when you carry it. I was surprised how much I could fit.

Thanks for the insight, I think I'll have to consider the 6MDH...

Is that from the site I posted about...? Photoco Storefront? They have poor communication, their stock is hit and miss, their site sucks..... BUT, they did get my bag to me, great price, and everything worked out, so it was worth it!!!

I now have the 7 Million and 6 Million and am very happy with both. I have so much axillary stuff, I didn't like having just the one bag super stuffed. Now, with two bags, everything is put away nicely, I can select my gear for the day and leave the other bag in the car if I think I might need something more. The bags are well built, comfortable, super convenient adjustable dividers, and overall top quality. I could recommend Crumpler any time.

Joe, I've read lots on the 7MDH, could you give me an idea of what I might be able to hold in the 6MDH?

I'm looking to carry a core kit of:
350D w/ grip and tamron 28-75 attached
17-40, 70-200 F/4, and 430EX, Cokin GND kit

I'd love to squeeze in my 100 macro or 50 1.8 but those aren't deal breakers, could always add a case to the side of the bag for those instances.

Dorman - I haven't seen the 6 million in person, but the 7 million would be too big for you I think.

Joe - Yup - that was from the site you posted. I happened to check it again on Christmas and they had the black one. I was happy! I had been checking the site for a while but hadn't found one in stock. I love it!!

I'd rather just buy one and have it be right, I order all my stuff from the US and I'd rather not deal with the hassle of returning when scouring the internet may have the answer to my question. Thanks tho. ;)

Can we see a picture with your gear in the bag?
