Re: Wanted: suggestions for small top loading bag for M6 II with 18-150

I picked up the TLZ 10 today for use with the M6ii and 22mm or the 11-22, with the pancake the camera fits in nicely on its side but with the 11-22 mounted (which is shorter than your zoom) it gets a bit tight already. Still fits, but I don't think that the camera would go in with an 18-150 mounted and the bag still zip shut.
LowePro Format TLZ 10 bag arrived today. Just tried it, and low and behold - EOS M6 II with EF-M 18-150 attached (hood reversed) does fit. Very tightly, as expected. But zipper can be closed without forcing things.
Also, as expected the bag itself is super minimalist, very light - almost flimsy, zipper is weak and only 1 way, no weather protection, minimal padding - but exactly what I want: the smallest possible pouch to hold camera with 1 lens up to 18-150 size. Included is 1 padded diveder and a light carry strap with rotating swivel links (plastic). There is also a belt loop [5cm / 2" clearing] sewn on at back. And it is dirt cheap, only paid € 18 including shipping.
Now I just need to figure out the best way to attach it to vertical backpack strap, as I want to carry it on side of chest (not on waist belt). Either via Duraflex buddy-lok salvaged from an old Fjällraven pouch or via something like LowePro Sliplock connector. Will have to nicely ask my wife for help.
