Bag question

[medicjch]

I'm wondering if anyone is using the Lowepro Slingshot 102? It appears to be the size that I want, but I'm wondering if I can fit my D5100 with the Nikon 18-200 VR II lens attached in the bag? Sure I could take my camera to the store and check it out personally..........but I that would take more time than typing out this note. So I'm just wondering if anyone has experience with this combination, or bag in general for that matter? I really don't like the bigger bags..........all I really want to carry would be the above combination, a external flash, and a prime lens.

-I suggest a Case Logic SLRC-202 SLR Camera Bag, Medium
will hold camera-lens, and flash and other small things.

I hope that helps a little bit. I like the caselogic bags do to the padded around the camera and the support system for the camera in the bag.

Thanks for the reply. I realize I'm probably being lazy and I just need to go try some combinations. I do appreciate the note about Case Logic stuff........I had not looked at them before, but I think I will add them to the list.

I have this Lowepro Slingshot bag and yes, you should be able to store your items in the manner you described.

I have a Canon D60 and leave it in the bag with the 18-200 attached. It sits in the center of the bag and the compartments on either size hold the 50mm prime lens and the external flash. There's should be a bit more room than that; I have a few more things stashed in mine.
