p.1 #1 · few question regarding to Vortex STORM JACKET CAMERA COVER

I'm considering buying one of those water-seal weather bag:

http://www.stormjacket.com/

but I have a 80-200mm f2.8 + 35mm f2 + 85mm f1.8 lenses

do you guys have experience with this bag, will the small size fit all of my equipment ?
or should I go with medium size? will that affect all of my small prime lenses?

thanks in advance

Based on my Canon gear, your body + 80-200/2.8 is probably about 11" long (not counting the hood), which means you need at least the medium size Storm Jacket. It'll work much easier with shorter lenses when you have a hood on the lens. I actually use a large size one on my gear with 70-200/2.8 and 300/4 lenses, so I have more overhang at the back. Here's a shot of a large Storm Jacket on a 5D with 35/2 lens - you can see the lens hood sticking out on the left.
