Camera Bag Conundrum
I have a Canon EOS R7, a 100mm macro lens, an 18-150mm telephoto, a 100-400mm telephoto, a 50mm lens and now - a 200-800mm telephoto lens. My backpack camera bag has sufficed up until the LOOONG lens arrived, and I am debating what to do to protect it on hikes. Finding a bag that will both protect and fit the 200-800mm lens and allow me to carry the “bare essentials” needed when I plan to use it (tripod, gimbal, spare battery, camera body) is the heart of my question to the community as checking pro-type bags out in person is not available in my area of the country,
I have looked at the Lowepro ProTactic BP 450 AW III 28L which has an attractive top load feature, but itself is 6 pounds and has more capacity than I think I will need.
Any advice? I am a wildlife photographer. I intend to keep my current bags (backpack and small box type),

Your requirements are pretty specific. Have a chat with the specialists at B&H. They are really helpful.

I forgot to add that they are closed on Saturday until after sundown.
