hello,

I need a traveller smallest and most compact bag that holds attached 70-200 with canon R6 and extra room for my sigma a7s plus little extras such as batteries power bank etc,

Right now I have fastpack 250 lowepro which is pain to travel with,

I needed more comfortable solution, regardless price and bag type, but comfort and holdings is priority

What is your best suggestions, Any ideas?
 
This backpack might work: https://www.thinktankphoto.com/products/retrospective-backpack-15

Or this shoulder bag: https://www.thinktankphoto.com/collections/retrospective-series/products/retrospective-20-v2-0

I have both of these, and they easily hold my mirrorless Nikon with the 70-200mm f/2.8 S attached, plus another lens. Like you, I was looking for the smallest bag or backpack that would suit.



This is the backpack with the 70-200 attached.

Here, the 70-200 is off the camera and stored.

The backpack is far more comfortable than the shoulder bag, especially as the weight of your gear increases. My camera with the 70-200 lens weighs 2.2kg. Last month, I used the backpack for several days of long hikes in the Arizona desert. I was very pleased with it.

NOT a short read, but I hope it helps.

Maybe the Think Tank Backstory 13 might do the trick.
