All,
what is your bag of choice?
I'm thinking z6 with 200-500
and a z7 with a 24-70 or 105e
looking at glass taxi or street walker pro, by think tank.
cheers

I have a "home-brew" bag
Combo of Kelty Raven 2500 backpack and a Pelican divider insert that I found that would fit. So I may not be the best person to recommend a camera pack
I wanted a true backpack frame and adapted from there. The velco adjustable panels let me change it for many scenarios, long tele, all small primes or just a backpack.

on paper, I'm coming up with 16.28"
I wish I could help, but I sold my 200-500 a while back. The photos I have been posting from it were ones in my archives that I had forgot to process at the time. Thankfully you received an answer.
$32.32 Clearance F-Stop backpack, nice for 200-500mm mounted
video walk through with the 200-500 z6 mounted:
I ordered this Friday and got it today.
so they are shipping faster now, than in previous years
it comes to around $51 with shipping and seems to be a nice deal!
hope this helps someone!

Bump.... here's a young Prothonotary Warbler, which is apparently an endangered species in Canada. Captured at Point Pelee National Park, Canada's most southern point...

People often ask how this lens performs when the subject isn't close.... here's a couple of shots with the venerable D800, fairly tight crops from distance... first, an Aussie Rock Wallaby from about 20 meters, followed by a pair of Rainbow Lorakeets from closer to 50 meters...
Looking forward to trying the 500mm PF soon as a friends is delivered
