Is this the right one to get? Is it too big? I have 5D3 with 70-200 f/2.8 and 24-105 f/4....

I did not like the bag it was to shallow for me I gave it to my son, it will hold your equipment I had a few more lenses for it to hold, my son likes it very much.

I am a part-time reporter for a weekly newspaper, so I have a lot of extras. I carry my main camera, a Canon Rebel EOS, in a small case that I can grab on a moment's notice. I also bought this bag to house my video camera, all my lenses and other gadgets, even 2 expandable tripods. It holds everything neatly and safely. I looked at many bags before deciding on this one, and I feel this one is the best by far. It's well constructed - Canon quality. I would recommend this bag to anyone, professional or hobbyist.

I like it. Bag has quality appearance. Inside can be arranged to fit your camera and lenses. Keeps everything together so I can grab bag (with charged batteries) and take off. Comfortable when over my shoulder. Bag measures 20" wide with the end pockets. It's not too big for me, but you will have to determine if it's too big for you. You can always return it if you don't like it. I don't think you'll return it.

No way is it too big. It's just the right size for what you have. I have a 1Dx plus a 6D, a 24-70 2.8 L II, and a 70-200 2.8 L II, plus a 2X extender, and it's too SMALL, mainly because the 1Dx is too big. But your camera is a much better size, and you'll be able to fit it, your lenses and a flash in there, too, plus accessories in the outside pockets. It's a great bag, especially for the price.

try the 24-105mm f/4l, its in a simalar price range and might be better suited, or the sigma 70-200 2.8 OS is probably best

i am using it with a 5D III w/24-105 and it fits, even with a extended Battery pack

It depends on what you want to do. If you are mostly into landscape or sunsets then no you probably want to get a wide lens. I would suggest getting either the 24-70 f/2.8 or 24-105 f/4.0 L lens.However, if you want to take picture of "people minding their own business" (for lack of a better term), this would be a pretty good choice. You can be standing at some 20 ft away and still capture the emotion. Do not forget however F/4 is not that fast, in order to capture a crisp image you might end up having to boost up the ISO to ISO-800 unless it's a really sunny day.

I have #71020 [25 - 125X80] only and do not know how it compares to 25X100. At 25X it is super clear even if you are holding it with your hands but of course, it will tires you out quickly bcoz of its weight and size. To fully enjoy this powerful bino spend money on a high-end tripod like SLK brand or other comparable reputable brands especially if you would like to experiment zooming closer than 25X --field of view gets smaller as you increase magnification and you can do it without a tripod. I stay at 25X or maybe few notches up bcoz I get dizzy looking thru it at much higher magnification. Maybe 25X100 is plenty of power for what you need it for, anything pass 100X is practically useless. And you may even save money w/c you can spend on tripod. Just my honest opinion... enjoy it!

Paul,This is a good lens but the lack of zoom may be a problem for basketball depending on where you are allowed to photograph. The F4 is not as problematic with cameras such as the 6D and 5D MarkIII. Those cameras handle higher ISO with much less noise than others. You will be pushing the 7D with ISO 6400 in some gyms. Newer Gyms with good lighting should be fine at F4.0. It also depends on how high you like to run your shutter to stop action crisply.

if your camera model has a better sensor that handles high ISO's well (i.e. little noise) the 70-200 F4 is fantastic ... I kept my F2.8 ( fantastic lens but much heavier plus mines an older version W/VR1) but never use any more as the F4 coupled with a D800 is a great combo

I have a T3i so I can't address the fit issues. Any decrease in image size through the eyepiece is minimal from my experience. It has been very useful for me.

I have been using the 24-70 2.8 for a while now on my 7D and I find that the range is not optimal for outdoors. I can get some great shots at 70 mm, but at 24 mm the shots just are not wide enough - close but not there. Upgrading (or downgrading) to the 17-55 2.8 IS USM this week. I think it will be a way better lens for a cropped sensor camera. It will allow me to get some landscape shots that I was just not able to achieve with the 24-70.Side note: tried the 24-70 2.8 on my friend's 5D MII and it was awesome - It would be my lens of choice if I had a full frame camera.

Bill, there are a few variables... Do you plan to go to a FX sensor in the future (D700, D3)? Do you plan on hand-holding or will you be using a mono/tripod? Are you someone that must have the latest and greatest things? Personally I'm going for the VR II, I shoot a D90 now but want to have room to move to a FX camera without worrying about vignetting and edge sharpness. Plus after looking at some of the review pictures that people have posted, especially the side by side shots, I think the VR II is worth the extra $500

I have Induro BL3 which is a good, robust all around size that can also work for the 500mm (which I have). But I also have the Gimbal Head (Induro GHB 1) that's my favorite for the 500mm.

Depends on how it's balanced. For example, I run a Nikon D3S with a 70-200mm VR II sometimes. If you use the tripod anchor on the camera, it's awful, but if you use the mount on the lens, it's great. You can adjust the height up or down to find a comfortable position on your body. You can play with the location on your body too (Front vs back vs side, etc). You'll find something that works well for you, I think.

I have the 302, which handles my Nikon D-70 and a 70-300 mm lens very nicely. I don't know how big the 5D is, so I will have to defer to another reviewer. I'm loving the 302, though.

I use a t3, if I remember they are about the same size and mine works great! I love it. The carry case isn't particularly sturdy but you can re enforce stitch it and it will be fine. Just be careful with the longer/heavier lenses.
