Canon Deluxe Photo Backpack 200EG for Canon EOS SLR Cameras looks like a good deal at $32.49. Just put tape over the Canon label on the front :P
Price: $32.49 through Amazon at Adorama, but $49.95 directly from Adorama.com.

Funny, I just bought this bag, and received it yesterday. I have a 10D with battery grip, and five lenses, flash, assorted filters and accessories.
This bag is really not big enough for me. I bought it on the strength of several reviews that said it was plenty big enough for a body with grip. It's really not. I'll post some pics if anybody is interested.
For the price, it's hard to be disappointed. I'll use it until I find a better one. |

I have a Tamrac that is huge and looking for a smaller bag when I don't need to bring everything, so I wouldn't mind seeing some pics. |

I strongly recommend you go somewhere and handle some actual bags to decide. Camera bags are as individual as cameras and in my opinion you have to see and feel it to really know if it's going to work for you and be comfortable or not.
Picking out a camera bag is an important decision because it will partially determine whether you can bring all your gear and whether you are going to be comfortable hauling all that gear around. |

It holds quite a bit. I have four lenses and there's room for probably 2-4 more depending on their size. If anyone wants more pictures of it, even with a ruler, I'd be happy to post some. Just say the word. There are also several zipper compartments to store memory, cable release, etc.

I got it for that same reason, holds just enough stuff for a trip to the zoo or hiking, etc when you don't want to bring everything. For the price, you can't beat it. Ya, with the grip it's kind of snug. |

Here is the bag with all my gear except my 50mm macro, which is on my daughter's rebel:
Below is a better view of how snug it is with the grip:
I could probably live with this bag for awhile, but it's tight (though plenty of extra pouches, as telehubbie points out, for extra stuff. Fadoi, yours is too big, mine is too small.
Trade?? |

Sigma 70-300
2x Teleconverter
Sigma 10-20 (don't have it yet, but I'm drooling over it)
Sigma EF-500 Flash
folding filter wallet
remote cord
extra battery
battery charger & cord (I'd love to be able to put these in the bag)

| Thanks for posting your pics Jen. My 70-200 is the space hog but I've done a little rearranging and I think I'll be happy with this bag - at least until I get another large lens. Hopefully that won't be for awhile! |

This bag is starting to look a little too spacious. |

I have that Canon bag. Every lens (7) in my profile is in it plus batteries and charger, lens cleaning kit, 6 filters in hard cases, pack of peck pads,remote, Rebel XT, camera manual, filter wrenches and God knows what else is in there. It actually holds alot of stuff if you take the time to organize it.

| $9.95 shipping and handling? That's a bit disappointing... |
