Does anyone have a K10D and use the Lowepro Topload Zoom Mini shoulder bag? Looking at the measurements of the K10D and the Lowepro, it should fit ok with the standard kit lens. Has anyone tried it with the 50-200 zoom? Thanks

Try phoning Park Cameras, they are usually very helpful.

Hi D_G,
Firstly, are you using the K10D w/ the VG/BP; because if you are , IMO, the camera will not fit due to size constraints However, I would recommend the LowePro Cirrus 140 -- BUT .... I would not recommend the way that LowePro has the gear loaded I would suggest placing the camera (and lens) in a horizontal position with the (camera) grip facing upwards and lens facing the divider. Also, you should have enough room to fit the DA 50-200 in the remaining space in the bag The only cavaet I would suggest, is that is you do have the grip .... you will be looking at a larger bag regardless of what style you pursue 
**EDIT** The best way to find a bag is to take your gear to your local shop and check out what bag fits your gear most easily and is in your budget **EDIT**
Also, when checking out the Cirrus 140 bag, go to "View 2" and see what camera they are using 
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Jack

Thanks Jack I have a larger Tamrac bag that I take when I need to have more gear with me. What I was after was a small(ish) toploading style shoulder bag that will take the K10D body fitted with either of the lenses mentioned when I just want to go for a short walk. A visit to the shops is the next step.
