[QUOTE="10 Gauge, post: 459616, member: 39102"] I picked this bag up the same time I ordered my Tamron 150-600 on the suggestion of someone online as I would obviously need a bag capable of holding this giant lens plus my body and other lenses, flash, etc etc. The downside, it was $175, which is EXTREMELY expensive for a stitched piece of fabric. With that said, this is without a doubt the highest quality bag I've ever laid hands on. The fabric feels expensive, the stitching is excellent, the straps and pads are next level good. So the price can - somewhat - be justified for a bag of this quality, you just won't find it with other manufacturers bags. I was previously using a Lowepro sling bag that I never really liked, I wasn't hip to the whole cross-body sling like I thought I would be. I also eyeballed some of the other bigger Lowepro backpacks before deciding on the Think Tank but they all so obviously scream "CAMERA BAG WITH UBER GOODIES INSIDE!!!!" which ultimately led me to the Restrospective 20. It's a great looking bag and doesn't have any tells that it's carrying around any camera equipment. If I saw someone carrying this bag around I'd figure it was like a school bag with books / papers in it or something of that nature. The bag ended up being a perfect fit for my current gear list which is the D750 body, 24-120, 50, and 150-600, plus a full size flash. There were also enough small pockets to accommodate things like lens filters, remote shutter release, lens cleaning supplies, memory cards, etc. Overall, I am [I]extremely[/I] pleased with this bag. I'm sure with time the sticker shock will wear off as I enjoy the bag more and more. If anyone is interested, this is the one I picked up: [URL="http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/controller/home?O=&sku=847341&gclid=Cj0KEQjwy7qrBRC4lp7_hM3dgIoBEiQA72pCnspbvGn177SasM0PwEtbQ9AbwgyZR65MNuSaIOUr2XUaAh598P8HAQ&Q=&is=REG&A=details"]Think Tank Photo Retrospective 20 Shoulder Bag 758 B&H Photo[/URL] [/QUOTE]
