It's the only backpack that allows you to access it without taking it off. You pay for the advantage, however.I don't think it can fit his 70-200, can it?

It's the only backpack that allows you to access it without taking it off. You pay for the advantage, however.There's also the Lowepro Flipside 300 or 400. I recently bought the 300 and love it - the "flip" feature is very useful. The 400 is a little bigger, and is weatherproofed. My 40D with 70-200 mounted fits nicely in the 300, with plenty of room for other equipment too. Gear: Canon R10, Canon RFS 18-150, Canon RF 100-400

I keep my 100-400L in the lower compartment on its side, along with a Speedlite. All I have to do to switch to this long lens or take a night shot is to rotate the lower section around. It's ideal for me. Jay

I have the TT rotation 360. the 70-200 will fit in the top and the bottom, but if you put it in the bottom you wouldn't be able to fit your body in there. go full frame!

The 70-200 will fit in the bottom compartment with hood reversed? Are you sure?

Oh, so can the rotation do this?  70-200 2.8L IS unmounted, hood reversed, no tripod collar 17-40L either with 17-55's hood, reversed (if on 7D) or no hood (if on 5D2) - mounted to camera (no grip) 50 1.4 with hood in position yes, no? EDIT: Just checked the site. It says the interior height of the beltpack only has 16.5cm, and the 70-200 is 19.7cm. How do you do it?

More info | Sep 09, 2009 01:35 | #14 flipside 300 will suit your needs best. if you plan on buying more equipment in the future, consider a larger bag. I own a flipside 300 and it holds my 70-200 2.8 IS, 580 ex flash, 16-35, and an 85mm 1.8 with room for accessories in the zipper compartment. the tripod holder is a plus. Flickr

It will be bigger than you need now but if you get a long lens this will still work. After using this bag you couldn't give me a Lowepro bag, the build quality on the Kata is way better than any Lowepro bag I've owned, you should look at Kata products and no I don't work for Kata.
