Mountainsmith Aurora II Camera Lumbar Pack

DSLR - NOT GONNA FIT!!!

By Ranked #1317 - Luggage September 2, 2009

I checked out this bag and the Aurora AT which is slightly larger. I have a Canon 50d with a sm. zoom lens (5 in.) (18-200mm). If you place the camera sideways (taking out all dividers) it JUST fits! What's the point? The quality of the bag was nice and looks as if it would be comfortable to carry. The compartments for cards and such all look completely useless - it will hold 2 CF cards and a really thin cell phone. I fail to understand why the 2 lumbar bags they make are almost the same size and too small to carry basic equipment and the next bag up is the tour Fx which is more than twice as big and most of the space is "head" room! The bag starts at my shoulder blades!!! I don't want my equipment stacked on top of each other - I see why none of my local camera stores carry this company - I'm sticking with my Tamrac sling pac!
