Originally posted by grainbelt I really like my LowePro Slingpack. Hike for a while with a comfortable, balanced pack, then slide it around my belly and pull out the camera. I have the 200, and can fit a K200D with kit lens mounted, 10-20, 90mm macro, and flash in the main compartment. The triangular upper compartment holds supplies and other stuff (sometimes my point and shoot).
The smaller Slingpack 100 may be a better fit for a smaller kit.
agreed i love mine. it would work well for what you are describing.
