    Packed up and ready to go - I'm off!







    I think the Lowepro Trekker 600AW might just be big enough - though I've yet to find space to put the sink inside, but it fits and passes the cat test (in fact I think I might even have space for 3 whole moggies inside!)

    I didn't realize you were considering changing out your viewfinder with Katz Eyes split prism?

    I must admit I've been pretty won over by the Katz range and didn't just get the optic upgrade, but also their patented Expurrrt Moth-nabber as well! Works well, but I've found it can somewhat chew them up if not used correctly

    She's the wrong colour for that - you need a white cat (with a red collar) for canon

    Thanks guys - and I'm still getting used to the new purple in my name too!

    I am however slightly of two minds about the bag - the 600AW is big and - I'm somewhat thinking I might have bitten off more than I really need (esp since I don't have anything bigger than a 70-200mm f2.8). It's almost intimidatingly big - the downside is it seems the idea of a storage space for stuff other than lenses died with the Lowepro minitrekker bag - which lacks the harness..

    I might swap it over for the AW 400 - I'm half tempted (the shop didn't have that bag in stock to compare just the 300 and 600
