Do any of you have any suggestion which camera bag would accommodate all easily with out hassle. Thank you in advance vipul ===================================================================== Vipul, That's a nice line-up of R optics you've got there! Welcome to the LUG. Anything this community doesn't know about Leicas and their application isn't worth knowing. You'll learn more than you could ever have imagined from this list, some of it even on topic! <G> For what it's worth, I find a Lowepro Nova 4 bag just right for my R8 gear. In my bag I can fit my R8 camera with 1 lens attached, 4 additional lenses, a Metz 32-Z2 flash, plus various accessories and a few rolls of film. Most of my lenses are smaller than the ones you mention, however, so the Nova 4 could be a bit of a squeeze for you. (I have 24/2.8, 35/2.0, 60/2.8 macro, 90/2.8 and 180/4.0). If you need it, there is a bigger size in the same style - the Nova 5, from memory. The Lowepro Nova bags have a carrying handle and shoulder strap, plus additional loops for attachment of Lowepro's waist strap as an alternative to shoulder-carry. Hope that helps, Regards, ===== Ray "The trouble with resisting temptation is you never know when you'll get another chance!" __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
