Looking for soft cover for Oly E-3 w/ Zuiko 12-60 SWD, to cover camera & lens when just carrying around by camera strap, extra cards and batteries and such in my pocket or small jogging butt pack, leaving full bag back on the shelf. Idea is to use best I've got instead of P&S for day tours, family get-togethers, etc., where overly serious gear load is a pain to everyone you're with as well as your own self being Oly body is about size of 40D or D300, and lens 4" long x 3.5" dia with hood stowed backward. Zing makes what looked like perfect solution in its large neoprene wrap around model (#502-xxx), but snoot not wide enough for lens dia. I've used Zing covers before on smaller SLR and find them well made and just as mfgr describes, just nothing presently in-house that will fit my Oly. HELP! Any suggestions for like solution?

    I am looking for something similar. I saw in one of these forums a small video about the equipment use by a paparazi. He used a soft bag were his DSLR with the lens attached fit just so, and when closed, it looked like a book bag which did not implied he had a very expensive cameras inside.
    I have been looking for something like that to use when I go on my travels so as not to advertise the expensive equipment that I have with me     , but I have been unable to find anything.

    Any one can tell us were to find something like this?

    Thanks
