Just found from another photo forum that Jessops are offering the Slingshot at under £25 + postage.
Got one on order.

Anyone got one of these? Looks pretty interesting. Would it hold my Canon 350d, Sigma 17-70mm and Canon 85mm lenses comfortably?
EDIT: Found this site which has some pics with a 350d in the bag ( http://www.cambags.com). Looks pretty good with one attached lens, and room for my spare lens and a flash/lens if I get another. Bargain .... thanks for the heads up tontoshorse.

Also, if you use quidco, you can get 3% off in quidco rebates and plus they'll give you a 10% discount voucher too  Not much of a saving I admit but it nearly pays for the postage.

I like mine. It can hold my D50+18-70mm, Sigma 70-300mm and Nikkor 50mm in the main part, and spare battery, memory card, leads, etc in the other section.
It's pretty comfortable to walk around all day carrying it, and you can quickly "whip" it round to get the camera out and take shots without having to take the bag off.

Got one of these half price (30 quid) from Jessops when I bought my EOS 400D from them.
I;ve only got the kit lens, but the bag nicely packs my camcorder, digital compact and batteries, tapes etc for all.
V. comfortable and compact. Highly recommended.

Just noticed Jessops are stating normal price £27
Think they've got that wrong - its at least £47 anywhere else!

I just tried to buy one and got sent in circles. It would not let me get to the Checkout to actually pay for purchase.
I suspect they have realised it's a mistake and are just preventing the purchase.
*EDIT* Maybe I need a voucher number?

It won't let me buy one. It keeps redirecting me to the basket, but won't let me get to the checkout.

Just ordered one. It wont hold all my gear but might be great for days when I just want to travel light. Hell, if it's no good I can probably still sell it at a profit or at least make my money back
