Ordered a Sigma 150-500, gonna need a bigger bag obviously. Thinking on the Lowepro 350. Anybody know if it will properly fit a Canon XSi with the 150-500 mounted?

I have the Bigmos, and at just a shade under 10 inches length I think you're gonna be about an inch short (if I read the specs on the bag correctly).

I do have the Pro Runner 300 and 450 AW, both of which will take the Bigmos. You may want to take a look at the Pro Runner 350AW (which is the Pro Runner 300 plus a slot for a 15" laptop), otherwise you may want to consider going to a local shop and taking a look at the Fastpack.

FWIW, HTH and all that...

I was checking out that 450 AW you mentioned. I'm thinking on going with that one when I order one.

It ain't for the faint of heart, I'll say that much. It's dimensions arent that much smaller than my Vertex 300, that's why I mentioned the 350 AW (I assumed you wanted something along the same capacity as the Fastpack 350). And it's definitely DEEP.

Just want something to fit all my stuff in for the most part. So big is good. I don't really plan to do alot of hiking or mountain climbing with it, just nice to fit my stuff with a little extra room for new stuff.
