Offically a Minoltian

[satay16]

i am planning to get a lowepro bag to put in all my equipment. but was stunned and lost at the amount of choices available. any recommendations? i think this is my possible equipment list:
7D with grip
5600 flash
28mm f2
Sigma17-50
sigma 70-200(might be 50-500)

thanks in advance

haha.....that was actually the only lens i bought from lnh. you know, the 17-35G i was looking at also kana koped. so sad.:cry:

anyway....i am looking for shoulder bag.

shoulder bag, i think your shoulder will break lor, if u just carry these items... u won't walk far with it...

get the Stealth Reporter series, should be about 400 or 500 ver, then u can put those in... change the strap to Matin ones, those neoprene, else u go home with a big red mark after an outing.

budden after thinking... I can put a 50-500, 28-75, 17-35, 5600, 4 batts & misc, cam with vertical grip into a Crumpler Company Embarassment, just heavy...

i think he not willing to lose too much from selling his 7D. in a way, i was pretty lucky to be the buyer from lnh. his items are free from damages(virtually new), and he gave me an extremely attractive price for the 7D. SGD800!!! dunno if it was because i am a student or someother reason.:bsmilie: . but sadly, he going to canon(is that dark or bright side?)

That's really an amazing offer with the 7D + 28mm f/2, some more you have a priority choice of the lens selection, what an offer :bigeyes: .

I don't think I can carry that many lens and item to go out for shoot every time. Now usually jut carry 5D, 2 lens + a flash.

Yup was thinking the same question.

To add on, did you try on at least know what you are going for in your system? or at least your shooting preference? You seems to be buying so many lens when you had just got a camera body only. :dunno:

Just some comments...no offence~

well, i actually was about to buy the 17-35 from lnh. but after looking at reviews of it being dead soft at corners, i decided to go with sigma. so now, have a range from 17-50 +28prime. just need another 70-200 or 50-500 to complete the set. btw, someone PM me about selling his sigma 70-200 but non-DG version. any important differences between them?

alamak not refer to you la.
quoting from what you said to mr satay about the 17-35mm and asking him what is his preference....

haha:bsmilie: . well, i believe the sigma17-50 should suffice me for quite some time, but just can't stand its loud and slow AF. really hope that a lens this range with a faster AF would be produced soon. heard that tokina coming out with one soon.

btw, planning to buy one bigma soon. after a long deep thought, i find that i dun really need the 70-200 as i seldom shoot sports. so rather than getting a short range focal length with wide aperture, i decided to go with long range and small aperture. right now, my main worry is the focusing speed of the bigma, hopefully not as slow as my 17-50.
