60D w/bat Grip & 18-135 Lens, ~ HELP! a Case that fits!

(1/2) > >>

Sorry folks, I searched and searched  the forums, nothing came up :-\ 

I'm thinking this will not work...reviews say grip is too much for this bag.

Any suggestions?  What do you folks use?

Target is:  60D w/bat Grip & 18-135 Lens

Will this fit with a battery grip?

Again, sorry to bother, I just can't seem to find one that will work.

Thanks!
Peace! 8)

That's quite the title . . .

Try this:  Lowepro Toploader Zoom 55 AW

I believe Neuro mentioned that he used this with a gripped 7D but can't find the post . . .

Works great for a 60D +zoom + another smaller lens.

The Case Logic one linked from Amazon above doesn't look like it will hold a gripped body.

The Lowepro Toploader Pro 65 AW holds a gripped body and standard lens (like the 18-135mm) perfectly...

The Toploader Zoom 55 AW isn't sized for a gripped body - in the Toploader series, 'Pro' = fits a 1-series or gripped body.

RC:
Go to Lowepro's website and run the "bag locator" for the equipment you've listed:
http://bagfinder.lowepro.com/lp/choose-profile

When I ran it for a gripped 60D with 18-135 it came up with several bags and the Toploader Pro 65AW if a top loader is what you are looking for:

I too have read that Neuro has tested gripped bodies in Lowepro's toploaders.  For reference I have the 65AW for my gripless 7D, closest lens to the 18-135 is my 24-105 which fits nicely. 


Edit:  there you go, I see Neuro has already posted confirmation

Yep - there's an insert in there to allow a non-gripped body to fit snugly, or it can be removed for use with a gripped body.  I have the 65 AW, which fits a gripped body and standard lenses (35L/85L/135L/24-105L/etc.).  The 100L Macro is a snug fitn and that's about the physically longest lens for the 65 AW. 

I also have the 75 AW which is a perfect fit for a gripped body with a big white zoom (70-200/2.8, 28-300, 100-400).
