I have my D7000 and 4 lens. The Nikon 18-55mm, Tamron 28-80, Nikon 18-105 and the Nikon 70-300mm. Also have some accessories, ie., the spare battery and vello remote.

Is this bag adequate ? Check the extra photo with space available.

I chose the Flipside because it has a number of the Lowepro Sliplock connectors on the side to attach other Lowepro lens cases or accessories. And since I have too many Lowepro accessories I decided to keep it all the same.

Properly taken care of 'cheap' is good enough for me. I won't be out every day with it.

Also - couldn't we just say 'inexpensive' - Cheap is so harsh.

:lol: :lol:

Most true and a correct comment by you, as I think in the USA they are a reputable dealer, but there is "cheap" rubbish on ebay

Define adequate ? daily use, every now and then, causal usages.
If it fits your budget and does what you expect out of it and looks as it will last more then a week I say go for it as long as it suits your purposes.

It looks like it will hold up to occasional use. Price is right. Why buy a Cadillac when a Nissan will do.

Thanks for the comments. Well taken.

Well, I did it. Not my original choice but from a fellow member.

I purchased the Lowepro Slingshot 302 AW Camera Bag.

Wife better get back quick. This making decisions based on MY needs is getting worse.

I have the solution for all those problems , just send me all your cash, checks, credit /debit cards and passwords/ pin numbers and your problems are solved as you have no means to pay for any of it so a decision is baseless .
No need for thanks for this advice just send via certified mail and rest easy knowing know you only have 1 decision left to make and that buried or creamated after the wife kills you.
Just teaseing ya sarge.
