Looking for shoulder bag to accommodate two DSLRs with lenses attached

First up, I have more camera backpacks than I have space for. I also have a number of shoulder bags but what I'm looking for is a shoulder bag that can accommodate two DSLRs, one with 70-200 2.8 attached, the other with 24-70 2.8.

I have plenty of backpacks that will do the job but sometimes it can be a pain to swap cameras on the hoof. I've also had sling bags but hate them. I know there are various other alternatives like harnesses, slides and slings but I don't want to carry two cameras on show.

So, I really only want shoulder bag suggestions.

Many thanks.

Funnily enough, I had previously checked out the Lowepro bag finder and did not find anything. However, I clicked on the Magnum link and found what I was looking for - many thanks.

Vanguard Uprise 38 zoom if you can find one.

Looks ideal though as you say, difficult to find. Many thanks.

It's perfect for a DSLR with 70-200 attached and another DSLR with small to medium lens attached. If properly configured you will still have enough room for another small to medium lens or flash on the inside. Plus there are exterior pockets. You might check out version II of this bag which is more expensive but I believe may have the same or similar dimensions. I like the way you can access your cameras from the top. I will say I love Lowepro bags as well. But this one seems perfect for what you wish to carry. Worked great for me. Good luck.

Consider a Billingham bag. The F1.4 might work.

I use one of these:

https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/53354-REG/Tamrac_61403_614_Super_Pro_14.html

found it on ebay for $50.00

B and H has the slightly smaller version, used for $190 - I think it will accommodate the 70-200 and the 24-70 mounted on cameras.

https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/used/53350/?c3api=1876%2C72118895162%2C&gclid=Cj0KCQjwq7XMBRCDARIsAKVI5QbkkI95ZGMrF6rUB3R8Sk7nf6laz3D_CGGRpSX2_DFTImj2_RehvfUaAlMDEALw_wcB

Only have good things to say about it. And yes, it is LARGE!

B&H has them in stock, but they are listed as messenger not zoom. Is that what everyone is looking for?

My bad. Adorama has the Up-Rise II for $130. The Alta Rise and the Up-Rise II look pretty much identical, but they must be different given the prices.
