I too was going to suggest you cross your shoulder bag straps over your head to the opposite shoulder if long enough.

You may want to check out this puppy. Cannot beat the utility it provides for the price. I have been using it for years.

For your equipment a sling bag would work good. I have both, a sling and a backpack. I typically use the sling when I take one camera body and 2 or 3 smaller lenses. It makes it easier to get the camera out of the bag. But to change lenses, I still have to take it off and unzip the zippers all the way to get at all the other lenses. They make newer bags that give you access to the lenses too without having to remove the whole bag and setting it down. Sometimes it's hard to find a place to set it down. I may look for one of the newer sling bags myself. Mine actually fell off of me when I had it swung to the front to access something. It fell right on the ground from about 3 feet up. My feet softened the blow and no damage was done. The plastic strap disconnect became disconnected accidentally. I will be putting a tie-wrap (cable tie) around it so that it won't happen again.

I have been using the LowePro Flipside 400 AW for about a year and love it. I have a D750 along with the 14-24 F/2.8, 24-70 F/2.8, and 70-200 F/4. Along with those are a couple of ziploc bags with extra batteries, self timers, etc. I might be able to squeeze a second camera body in, but when the D850 comes out (hopefully) I may upgrade to the 500 AW. There is also a sleeve on the back for a tripod and I carry my Slik U212 which is fairly large. The pack is quite comfortable on hikes of several miles through the sierras.

Their gear is extremely well made. It's well designed. It's worth a look at their site. The tool is great.

I carry an older version of the Fastpack BP 250 AW from Lowepro. Weatherproof and fairly lightweight, I usually carry 2 canon bodies, 4 lenses and accessories (square filters and mounts, cleaning supplies, extra batteries, charger, speedlight, laptop) as my travel bag for carry-on for plane travel. If carrying my Sigma 175-500 I usually have to leave a lens or camera body at home. Once at my destination, I unload everything and take only what I need for the shoot in the bag. I leave everything I don't need for the shoot in the room or at the front desk in a locked suitcase if I am concerned about theft.

Something to consider - most of the Lowepro backpack bags have a strap on the lower back that goes around your waist. If you plan to use the bag while walking/hiking, this is important to have, regardless of the manufacturer. Make sure the bag fits you properly so the weight of the bag will be carried on your hips. Fully loaded for plane travel, my bag can get to almost 40 pounds and wandering through airports is a breeze when its not only supported by your shoulder straps. The bag I have allows side entry so having the waist strap fastened becomes even more convenient in that you can slip out of the shoulder straps and pivot the bag in front of you to get to your gear quickly without having to take the pack completely off. Comes in handy when you need that 'other' lens or body quickly while on a hiking trail.

A good backpack for carrying camera gear will have dividers that can be moved around. This is how you keep things from shifting too much. A strap that goes over the camera lens also helps. If the bag is not able to be customized, you won't want it!

I bought anAmazon branded back pack a few years ago. It carries the d810, an external flash, 50mm 300mm 24-85mm lens, my charger, 3batteries, 4memory cards my tablet assortment of filters, a small softbox, a set of tubes and I have room to spare. it was $39.00 I think. when the wife says road trip, I pickup the bag and have everything I need.

Steel, I often carry a little more than what you carry, other times about the same. My 70-200 is the non-IS, f4, NOT the 2.8.
I carry it all in my cheap little Canon 200 E.G. Delux, $39!!!
I have two expensive and bigger Lowpros that are a lot better but I like them less and rarely use them!
I could show you a loaded pic if you have an interest. Good luck!

For gear storage I use a back pack. When out in the field I use a vest to carry gear taken. The vest is a fishing vest that fits my needs just fine. Plenty of pockets for extra cards, batteries, note pad, pen etc. Pockets are small and large. Large pockets can carry my Nikkor 70-300mm lens.

As a pro (years ago) I had all kinds of cases hard/rolling, soft, I customized my first few backpacks, back when I could backpack. These days I carry a single Canon T6s body. My walkaround lens is an 15-85. I also carry a Sigma 8-16-body & a Canon 70-300, a CF tripod plus various odds and ends. As taking a backpack off/putting it back on is just too cumbersome I decided to try a sling style back.

I started with an Altura, from Amazon. Although it was otherwise great and ended up going to my wife, I found it a little too small. Amazon also has a bag called a "QiPi" that's supposed to be bigger, but ended up being smaller than the Altura. I next tried the LowePro Slingshot AW202 (LowePro's Slingshot AW302 is even bigger) At first I thought the 202 was a little too big and so ordered LowePro's newest Slingshot 250AW which ended up being just a bit small for the 70-300.

At the end of the day, in addition to the Altura that went to my wife, I kept the LowePro Slingshot AW202 https://www.amazon.com/Lowepro-Slingshot-DSLR-Sling-Camera/dp/B0036AWR8E/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1493250060&sr=8-1&keywords=LowePro+slingshot. Having just returned from a short trip up US 395 along the eastern Sierra Nevada mountains and into Death Valley, I'm very pleased with my choice. Reviewing your post, it sounds like we're packing roughly the same items.

BTW: Can't say enough about build quality...

As I've gotten so much from UHH, I hope this helps. ENJOY

I agree. If you want to carry with the 70-200 mounted, be sure to check with Lowepro and get a bag that will hold it - the combination is too long for many sling bags. Lowepro has an online tool that will tell you which bag it will fit in. I use the 302AW sling which will hold the 70-200 mounted (the 250 AW will not).

I have the K&F Concept Camera Backpack Bag which I have been using for about a year. It's well built and lets me efficiently and safely carry most of my gear. It's also extremely comfortable to wear, but it's just a little big for a quick hike or touring around a city when traveling.

I started looking for a sling-style bag that I could use in these situations and one that wouldn't take up quite so much room when I was flying. After some pretty serious research, I settled on the Qipi Camera Bag - Sling-Style Camera Backpack. (https://www.amazon.com/Qipi-Camera-Bag-Crossbody-Mirrorless/dp/B01MFD0EKG)

First, there are two zippered outside pockets that will be very useful for carrying small items. Next, there's a dedicated (and zippered) cell phone pouch on the shoulder strap with a pass-through hole for your headphone cable. And, finally, the hip belt is large and features a hidden zippered pouch to store your valuables.

Plus, because it's a sling bag, you can slide it around on your body to access the camera very easily. It may be a snug fit, but I believe it will carry all the gear you mentioned.

It was out of stock for few weeks on Amazon, but I just checked and it's available now. And for just $33.99 with Amazon Prime free shipping, you really can't go wrong.

This is definitely going to be my primary bag for general use, and I recommend it highly.

Look into a "messenger bag". Inexpensive and some are have lotsa room.
