Slingshot 200AW owners - quick question

Raider · 30 May 2006 at 09:45

I'm looking to replace my small Crumpler bag with something a bit bigger and this looks just the ticket. At the moment all I need to fit in the bag is:

350D
Sigma 10-20mm
Canon 50mm F1.8
Sigma 75-300mm
+spare memory card, battery, blower etc..

But I want to be able to have the room to replace the Sigma with something bigger like the Canon 100-400L or Sigma 100-300mm F4. So will the AW200 take my normal kit and a fairly big lens?
Such a lens is around 19cm long, so pretty hefty!

Also so far I've found the bag for £55 + £5 P&P, is that the cheapest?

in my slingshot i get:

300d with Grip attached
70 -300mm stands in a hole or attached(just)
28 -75 tamron
18 55 sigma

Not sure if this will interest you.

I have the Nova 5.

Got everything in my sig, also the hoods, caps, battery charger and spare battery. Only problem is you can't fit tripod.

So a bit telephoto might be a bit of a squeeze?

I have the following in mine;

Canon 350D Digital SLR with BG-E3 Battery Grip
Lenses;
Sigma 10-20mm
Canon 18-55mm and
Sigma 70-300mm APO II
Canon 430EX Speedlite

There is some spare space, but i doubt i could get another lens in. Im 99% sure you would not get the Canon 100-400 in it.

The price you have quoted seems about right

Any alternatives then? I don't want a backpack because it's too inaccesible, but must shoulder bags seem too small.. grrr
