So true. And yet, I have to ask...
I'm buying a Canon 70-300mm IS lens next week that won't fit in my current bag, a Crumpler Four Million Dollar Home. I'd like to upgrade to a backpack of some variety since I'm going on a trip to Norway and Iceland in June and don't want to put a permanent kink in my spine by taking a big shoulder bag. The only equipment I have is my Canon Digital Rebel XT with the kit lens, the soon-to-be-purchased 70-300mm zoom, and my
Manfrotto tripod, so I don't need anything big designed to hold two cameras and a billion lenses or whatever. My problem is that most of the slimmer bags, like the Lowepro Slingshot 100, don't look like they'll hold a long telephoto zoom. Any suggestions for a bag that can accommodate the 70-300 or similar but that isn't going to be overkill for my starter equipment? I don't care if the tripod fits in or not, but that would definitely be a bonus.
