p.1 #1 · Smaller bag for Canon 7D + 100-400 attached
I am looking for a small bag for carrying my 7D+100-400L (same size as 70-200 2.8) when I am shooting wildlife/bird. I am currently using my Lowepro Fastpack 300 but I found it too big for that occasion...any advises?

It'll fit nicely in a LowePro TopLoader Pro 75, even with a grip on the body.
I sometimes use the TL75 with a 1D-series body and 70-200/2.8L IS II, or 100-400L lens, with hood reversed. Mine is an older style than the current version (link below). The rectangular front pockets on mine look larger/thicker than the current model; the large pocket on top fits a 580EX flash, and the smaller one at the bottom easily takes one LP-E4 battery (1D...) or at least two 7D/5DII batteries. I don't know what you can stuff into the outer pockets of the new TL75.

I'm biased, as I work for Think Tank Photo, but I do use this (well, it's a D7000 + 70 - 200 f/2.8 VRII) combination frequently when hiking about or shooting concerts.
Personally I use it on the belt when hiking or as a shoulder bag when just wandering around town or shooting concerts. The nice thing about using it on the belt is that I can add/remove capacity as needed. We have pouches for extra lenses, strobes, filters and a water holder, etc.
Hope you don't mind the plug, but it seemed fitting in this case.
Kind regards,
Randy
