5.0 out of 5 stars
holds pro DSLR w/medium zoom, March 30, 2008
This review is from: LOWEPRO TopLoad Zoom 2 Camera and Accessory Case (Electronics)
originally got the lowepro TLZ 1, which is the same bag as this but smaller. but i had to send it back since it wasn't big enough for my d300 w/grip.
the TLZ2 has a much larger 'footprint' -- it's not exactly inobtrusive, and i doubt you'd want to wear it on a belt as a holster unless you want to lean to one side.
however, you can add a belt along with the shoulder strap for added stability when hiking or active sports (like crowd-wading) and there's also a chest harness available if you're into rock climbing, skiing, etc.
what fits into TLZ2:
d300 w/ grip and attached 50-150 lens
sb-600 flash w/diffuser
memory cards/filters
the strap is switchable, which is a good thing since the supplied one isn't padded. and the material is a rugged cordura that should offer some water-resistance. there's just enough padding, and removeable dividers as well.
if you have a pro dslr, this is the one you want. for a d80/d40 or rebel xti with a small zoom, i'd get a smaller size.
overall, this is a classic, somewhat understated case. it's good for when you're packing your camera in a seperate bag, or when you just want to take a camera, one lens, and a flash.

Great on the go bag, April 11, 2006
This review is from: LOWEPRO TopLoad Zoom 2 Camera and Accessory Case (Electronics)
I have this bag with a Rebel XT with a 28-135 lens w/hood attached. This bag is great and fits the camera, lens and hood very well. The front pocket expands and could carry another lens or other "stuff". Looks like if you had the battery grip that it would still fit ok. I will be getting that pretty soon I think. I do have to say that of all the places I have seen this bag that www.adorama.com did have the best price. $27.95 plus $5 to ship.

More than I expected!, June 17, 2008
This review is from: LOWEPRO TopLoad Zoom 2 Camera and Accessory Case (Electronics)
I ordered this bag just recently. It is a great bag. I must have ordered more than 4 camera bags before I finally find the one suitable for my Nikon D-40X. After attaching a Nikkor 18-200mm lens to my camera, I still have plenty of room left for my accessories such as my SB-800 Nikon flash, and batteries and charger. I would recommend this bag to any one who wishes to take a few camera accessories for either everyday activities or long trips. It's neither big nor small. Finally, the price is quite affordable. I paid 30 bucks for mine on Amazon.
