Looking for a small bag to carry ONLY my T1i with 55-250IS mounted. Plan is for small over shoulder type bag that is easily accesible on short hikes.

Will the Crumpler 2MDH or 3MDH be a better fit for this?

Thank you in advance.

That cant be too hard since you ONLY want to fit that. Id say the best thing for you to do is go to a local store, camera store, Frys etc and see what fits and what you like best. Thats what i did when i just got my T1i, now that i have more Glass i need more room.

Thank you! There isn't any stores close by that I can swing by. That's why I was hoping for some help here. If it comes down to it, I can/will make the drive to test it before I buy.

Thanks for the help!

okay in that case just check out some bags online and see which bag suits your needs.

Well if all you want to hold is a T1i with 55-250 why not just look into a holster? Saves the trouble of a larger bag on your shoulder since they usually hold a bit more then just 1 camera with lens and its pretty quick to access since they usually just have one flap you flip up and you can take your camera out

Check out Lowepro TLZ line. Good for what you want and relatively cheap.

Think tank makes great holster bags that have a pop down feature for longer lenses. Sometimes I even use an Urban Disguise 20 for just a camera + lens since it has lot of zippered pockets for non phone accessories ( phone, keys etc )
The UD 20 can also be attached to a belt.

Another bag that may work well is the Domke F-5xb. I have the XC and its a great lightweight bag.
