Did that while back, luckily the 120-300 jammed in the unzipped bit and stopped everything else falling out,very lucky and lesson learnt.

Just having a Sunday peruse through the threads and came across this! Have to say I sat and thought how I'd have been on my knee's in tears at what happened!

Sorry for you Michael - it is so easy to do!

Best Wishes

Man that sucks.

Glad to hear you have insurance though.

My wife says I have OCD when it comes to checking the zips & clips on my camera bag

 

[archangel]

Thanks for all the support guys!!!! going to insurance first thing tomoorow to plead the case for a poor tog like me!!!!

See if they let you keep the 70-200, I'd bet you'd still get a couple of hundred for it on Ebay....

 

[Rudesing]

Ugh! How horrible. I've had a near miss doing the same thing - fell onto the carseat luckily rather than into the road.

Good luck with the insurance
