i need a sling bag that can carry the 70-200L (not mounted) and my 5D2 gripped with 24-105 mounted and laptop.

i've been looking at the kata 3n1-22 and have heard many say the supporting strap is weak and bouncy?

i like the lowepro sling.. but looks like there's no place for me to store my 70-200L.

any others? need it for an upcoming trip to SD-Sea World.. so would like to carry my 70-200 and sit back and shoot the whale and dolphin performance without getting wet... ;)

Subscribing - I'm looking for the exact same thing, except I have a 1D instead of a gripped 5D.

So far, the only thing I've found is the Clik Elite Impulse Sling, but I'm not sure the 70-200 will fit. http://www.clikelite.c​om/shop/impulse-sling/ (external link)

And I can't find any reviews...

Help?

Thanks,

-Mike

I emailed Clik Elite: They said that a 70-200mm mounted on a camera will not fit in the Impulse Sling. :(

I also came across the Tamrac Evolution 8, which converts into a sling, and will hold a 70-200mm mounted to a gripped camera. It's a little bigger than I'd like (I tried it on in the store), but it seems well-made and has a lot of space.
