This is my second Lowepro Sideline Shooter Camera Belt Pack. Wore out my last one after about eight years of heavy use. I am a professional and most of the Pro's I know use this one if they use belt-packs. I normally can put a 28-70 or 17-55 plus a flash, spare batteries and CF cards, cleaning cloths and a polarizer in the pack. I normally have two camera bodies with lenses around my neck at the ready, usually a 400 2.8 with mono pod and a 70-200 2.8. I can put the 70-200 2.8 in the pack vertically for a short time if I take out the wide angle zoom. If I want it to be more secure with the 70-200 and lay it horizontally I would have to take out the flash and reverse the sun shade on the lens. When I wear this one out I will by another one.

This makes a great purse. I had been suffering from fashionista back problems due to too much weight in the purses I carry. Black is my essential color and I feel comfortable carrying it almost anywhere. I can carry it over my shoulder but high because of the sturdy, adjustable straps and if I drop it, the padding in the bag protects any breakable items. I am now on my second Sideline Shooter bag after having used my first one for eight years.... and, by the way, it washes well, dries fast in spite of all the padding, and retains its shape. Now I can use the old one as my camera bag!!
