This slim-profile messenger bag is great for carrying a digital or film SLR with a zoom lens up to 6-inch attached, several additional lenses, a flash and accessories. The Speed Flap Top opens to reveal adjustable, foam-padded internal dividers that provide a custom fit to camera equipment. The zippered front pocket, full-length zippered Speed Pocket on the flap and an open pocket in back provide extra storage for accessories, manuals and personal items. A side pocket is perfect for carrying a cell phone or MP3 player.

A shoulder strap and EasyGrip carrying handle provide convenient carrying options, while the Piggy-Back Pocket allows the bag to be slipped over the handle of rolling luggage.

You can add Tamrac accessories to the shoulder strap using the attachment slots for our Strap Accessory System products.

"After recently purchasing a 30D and in the process moving up from the smaller size of entry level SLRs, I found myself needing a bigger bag to store my 28-70 f/2.8 (attached), a 70-200 f/4, 1-2 small primes or occasionally my olympus rangefinder.
