Does any one know of a good sized back pack that would be able to hold the following: a sigma 150-600 and the trinty of 2.8 lens's. I tried a Esddi from Amazon and it's too small,or am I dreaming.
a wheel barrel would work..
Have you tried Think tank back packs
Thanks I will look them up.
I bought a Manfrotto Travel Backpack for that purpose. In addition to a body and the glass, it also holds my 15" MacBook Pro and it has straps on the back that holds my tripod with gimbal head.. It has served me well for a few years now. I'm sure they have newer models by now, but Manfrotto makes well thought out and well built stuff.

If you have the gear, you know what size you need. The manufacturers list their dimensions - you have to work at it to get the wrong size.
I just recently upgraded to a Lowepro Protactic 450 II and it holds more than what I probably need. The downside is that it gets heavy very fast, but that's just another reason for me to maintain a steady workout program :)
Yes, this backpack fits the bill. Almost bought it for my 80D, Tamron 150-600mm, assorted lenses and extras. Affordable choice and all would fit. Almost...
Then I stopped at a local thrift store and found a Lowepro Photo Trekker AW II. Like new. 39.99 and 25% off. Almost identical. Kind of a no brainer. Love it. Fit all of the above. It now holds my Nikon D7100, Sigma 150-600mm Sport, numerous lenses, tripod, Gorillapod and extras. Amazing what will fit in or on it.

I like the large older Tenba and Tamrac cases. But the only way to pick a bag is to, like shoes, try them on. Absence of a large camera store near you, I would call B&H and ask for sales, and then sales persons for camera bags, describe the lenses you want in your case and I am sure they will have professional suggestions for you. They know and understand photographers. Here are a few to consider.

I use LowePro backpacks which come in all sizes and perform exceptionally. I’d recommend looking into them... some of the older models can be found in EBay for quite reasonable prices.
