Selling a Lowepro Outback 300 AW Hip pack/shoulder bag, as the one below
link

I've had it for around half a year but it's always only sat at home used as storage and not been out at all. So it's got no tags and has been used but is in as new condition. Worked out that I'd be better off with padded dry bags instead of a dedicated camera bag.
It's a big bag that holds a lot of gear and surprisingly comfy even when loaded! The shoulder strap is even better, I have taken it off to put it onto my other bag before.

So the one I'm selling will come with all internal dividers and everything it should come with.
Given the condition I'd like to recoup what I paid for. £80 posted to the UK via 1st class mail.

I'm busy with exams until thursday and will be leaving on Saturday so I can post it Thursday or Friday.
I'd much rather accept payment via Bank transfer, although I do have paypal.

Which lenses have you carried in the two outer compartments? (with or without hoods?)

What's the overall capacity like? ie what do you carry?

I think they'd even be big enough for the 100-300, at least that's what Lowepro seems to imply on the website (that's 9" long and 100mm diameter)

I can confirm that you wouldn't want to put the 100-300 mounted in the outback - it fits, but it's very tight and I wasn't happy that the lens would be protected (I had the Outback 200, which is the same length and depth but not quite as wide). Sorry Chaude.

To balance this comment, they are really nice bags. Thing I liked most about mine was the lack of sweaty, sore back when carry lots of gear - your hips are designed for load carrying! I'm actually tempted to pick one up again and just accept that my 100-300 won't fit in it (I sold mine to get a flipside 400 that does accept the siggy)

If you can swap the side pouches out, though, then you have the basis for a decent system - as the 100-300 should fit in a Lowepro S&F Lens case 4 and that could be attached to the sides.... also meaning that you can shrink things down if necessary.
I'd be very interested if I had some budget, but I don't right now

Guess what I would take the other's words here! Thanks to Cuchulainn for pointing out as I wouldn't know anyway!
I have only stuck an adaptall 2 70-210mm f3.5 in it and that fits, but have no tele lens to put in there so I can't speak. I'd assume it'll fit as I have once experimented with a friend's tamron 70-300, but it was tight so you might have to do it as Bretti_kivi says, swap the side pouch.
Capacity wise, I currently have a 18-250mm, 31mm f1.8, 10-17mm fisheye, k5 body, mz-5 body and a 28mm f3.5 stashed in the main compartment with the side lens pouches empty and there's still space to spare, I just didn't bother tidying it up!
Otherwise it's very comfy, when I experimented at home but I just can't justify keeping it as I normally just use a padded drysack!
