Case Logic SLRC-205 SLR Sling
The Case Logic SLRC-205 SLR Sling (Black) is a nylon bag with a memory foam interior that helps protect the delicate LCD screen. The SLR Sling wears like a backpack but allows for instant access to the SLR and accessories. A hammock system suspends the SLR above the bottom of case, providing impact protection. There is a large zippered compartment (7.5 x 3.75 x 3.0") that stores an additional lens or flash. There are 3 zippered pockets that store memory cards and other small items. An industrial strength hook and loop strap can carry a tripod. The adjustable shoulder strap with waist strap prevents the sling from jostling around during activity.

As a professional photographer who divides his time between photographing boats and marine scenics in the summer and mountain and wildlife photography in the winter I was in the market for a carry bag for my Nikon D7000. I wanted something small and compact enough to make it easy to carry while at the same time substantial enough to protect my camera and 2 lenses. Sadly, I was not able to find any cases that really met my needs but this one seemed close so I gave it a shot.
On the good news front the case is well made of high quality materials. It is also very comfortable to carry. Better yet it is just deep enough to allow me to carry my D7000 with the 70-300 mm telephoto attached as long as I remove the lens shade. While it takes a little effort, there is also enough room on the left side for the carrying strap to be tucked into the case as well.
The main pocket is also more than large enough to carry the 70-300 when I replace it with my 16-85 telephoto.
Now the bad...
While I can't imagine ever going into the field without a spare battery, a couple of spare cards, a couple of filters, a cable release, some lens tissues, and a few other odds and ends there is simply no real place to stash these items.
There could have been, mind you, except the space was used for a "Tripod Holder" that is next to useless for serious photographers. The only tripod you could carry with this pack would be one of those wobbly tabletop jobs. Any serious tripod would be far too heavy and bulky to carry with this pack.
So what could have been a great pack is now only a pretty good one that requires you to either carry another pack for the sort of items referred to above or leave them home. I wound up using a fanny pack but in the winter when wearing a heavy outer jacket this can be a real hassle!
All this said, having owned 3 Case Logic camera packs I would have to say that this company offers great quality at a very reasonable price. Now if only they will add a decent sized pocket to this otherwise excellent pack we'll be all set.
By the way, a few reviewers complained about the zipper on the main compartment being of poor quality and hard to use. There's nothing wrong with this zipper it's just that like all zippers it doesn't like turning sharp corners when pulled at a certain angle. A simple solution is to use one of the two zippers for 75% of the opening, and the second zipper only to open the remaining short side.

The strap is comfortable, but other than that it's not very impressive. There aren't enough compartments to keep your cards and cleaners in. If you want to pack anything other than the camera and two lenses there is little space. You can put a small flash below the camera, but if you need to get it out it's not easy. When putting your camera in the bag you have to cram the strap between the side of the camera and the bag and it's a bit of a nuisance. It's not designed very well.

Comments about Case Logic SLRC-205 SLR Sling:
I looked at this case for a while and am so glad I finally decided to purchase it. So far I find it very comfortable to wear and I enjoy the ease of accessibility to all the compartments. I'm currently carrying 2 film SLRs in this case... my Pentax with a 28-90mm lens in the main compartment using the "hammock" and an older fully manual camera with a 50mm lens in the side compartment. Also fitting in the main compartment under the Pentax are an 80-200mm lens and a few extra rolls of film. The other smaller pockets are great for smaller items such as filters, extra batteries, etc. I am definitely very happy with this purchase.

Comments about Case Logic SLRC-205 SLR Sling:
It is a very good entry level bag. It has enough space to carry what I need. Because I am just really getting into photography this bag is good for me because I only have one lens. If you have multiple lenses then you should look into a bigger bag. I bought this bag so that I could bring my camera to school or on hikes (basically wherever I want to go). It is very secure on my back and it doesn't sway at all.

Comments about Case Logic SLRC-205 SLR Sling:
Looks great, fits my Canon T2i perfectly. You can't figure out from outside that you have an DSLR in the bag. Sling style makes it easy to carry. Perfect for a field trip and easy handling when you need to take pictures

Comments about Case Logic SLRC-205 SLR Sling:
With the memory foam top and suspension hammock system I felt that my camera was very well protected. My Canon 7d with a 50mm lens fit nicely into the bag. But after wearing it around I found the bag to be very awkward and annoying, as it didn't fit right around my body and I always had to wear the bottom belt with it which made it uncomfortable. Also, I know looks don't matter when your out taking photos but the bag looked some what boxy. A backpack style would have fit better. Seems like it would be a great bag to take on a hike but not for walking around town. It's sling design does make it easy to access your camera though. Great for anyone looking to just carry around a smaller extra lens, a few memory cards, and extra batteries...but not much storage space past that. I plan to return the bag but I think I'm going to stick with Case Logic.

Comments about Case Logic SLRC-205 SLR Sling:
I bought this to use as my camera holder while I'm moutain biking while taking my DSLR, I dont want to use the big back pack not to break my back. So this bag serves my purpose plus its good looking too. I only bring one extra lens, cleaner extra battery and extra SD card, I can even bring my portable tripod because it has this builtin tripod or monopod holder. right size for the right price!

Much easier than a bag that goes over your shoulder and is always falling off, and better than a backpack that you have to take off both sholders to get into. :)

Comments about Case Logic SLRC-205 SLR Sling:
The sling is very comfortable on your shoulder. It is very easy to get your camera out of the case while your wearing it. I am very satisfied with the case and would recommend it for someone who doesn't have many accessories. Perfect fit for you Canon EOS Rebel T3i, spare lens, and memory cards.

Comments about Case Logic SLRC-205 SLR Sling:
I use this bag to carry my DSLR with a lense attached. I plan on purchasing a second lense soon and that should fit nicely as well. So for carrying a camera and two lenses not a bad bag. Would also fit some other acessories comfortably like a back up battery. The way it fits across your back is a little awkward, at least on me it rides up. Overall a good bag for toting around when your out and about with the kids or on a hike.

Comments about Case Logic SLRC-205 SLR Sling:
This is a great bag for carrying the basic equipment for a day sightseeing. It's comfortable and seems to be of sturdy construction. The only thing I would change would be to have the main pocket unzip outward, rather than inward (hard to explain, but you'll know when you see it).

Comments about Case Logic SLRC-205 SLR Sling:
If your need is to walk light with 1 SLR with Lens + an extra Lens + Tripod with Head + small accessories like cards, lens pen, shutter release, a pocket size small note book, etc.... then this would be the best bargain considering the quality and comfortability of the bag.

I use it to store my canon T3i with a 50mm lens attached to it and a kit lens 18-55 lens in the side pocket with a cleaning cloth for the lens and I also keep my charger in the middle pouch it's also great cause I can carry my tripod attached to this bag. If your looking for a bigger bag then this won't be it. It only holds 1-2 lens but for me that's just enough. I highly recommend this bag for beginners.

Comments about Case Logic SLRC-205 SLR Sling:
I use this case to transport my Nikon D3100 and accessories to take photos at any time. The camara and equipment are with me at all times when out. The bag carries both my lenses,18/55 and 70/300 zoom in side compartment with room to spare or with either one attached to the camara wnen in the main sling compartment. There is plenty of room to carry all my needs ,spare cards, cleaning kit, battery charger,filters, tri-pod etc,etc. With everything in it, it still swings around to the front for easy access to the camara and spare lens and other items. With tri-pod attached you have to remove it to access the front compartment. Not an issue if you pre plan your days events for tri-pod use. I compared this bag to many others with the same design features and at this price beat all the others with a savings of $45.00 to $125.00. Great purchase ! I would recommend this product to anyone who needs a case to protect and carry their picture taking investment !!!

Comments about Case Logic SLRC-205 SLR Sling:
This is a great bag. It hold my Nikon D5100 with the 18-55mm lens attached (in suspension), with the second lens (Nikkor 55-200mm VR ED IF) in a compartment next to it (with plenty of room to spare), spare memory card and spare battery in a pocket, 2 filters in another pocket, and my monopod strapped on the outside the case with the velcro,
In practice, I will likely take only one lens with me and use the second compartment for water bottle, sandwich, or snacks. This is a perfect bag to carry my DSLR with all its common accessories while not attracting attentions from others (can't really tell it's camera bag) and remain stylish. Love it.
