Just thought everyone would like to know that the new Peak Design Sling 6L v2 will take the SL2 upright with the 24-90 lens and leave space for say SL 35mm F2 APO on the left and a Sigma45mm F2.8 on the right under the flap. My 11" iPad Pro also fits in the side pouch so all in all a great combination.

Please post a picture of bag with gear.

I have the PD 6 and use it that way, sort of. Camera in the center with SL Apo lens aiming down (hood reversed), and another Apo SL lens on the left side. I put straps and batteries under the flap on the right. While I have not tried it, my sense is that having a third lens on the right is not ideal if you want to work out of the bag and grab the camera quickly, because with the small lens on the camera, you have to Stowe both larger lenses on the sides, making the camera not really fit in the center. It will go, but not ideal. The three lens setup is fine if you have your camera on a strap and just use the bag to hold the gear, but I often like to use the bag as a holster of sorts.

I use the older PD 5 (just bought new on sale) for the SL with four M lenses.  SL with M-to-L adapter fit in the middle (without strap), 28 & 50 in left pocket (when Sling is open in front of me), 90 & 135 in right pocket.  Spare battery and card in upper zip pocket. This wallet and car keys in front zip pocket.

In the field, I use my iPhone instead of iPad.  Its in my shirt or coat pocket.  My wife calls this PD 5 my "man purse" since her purse is larger than the PD 5.

I carry nothing else.  I can open, pull the SL, drop the M body cap into the SL area, pull the lens I want, drop its rear cap into its area, mount the lens and shoot!  I'm in the process of converting my M lenses to 6-bit thus eliminate having to set the SL's lens type.  Going from closed up to taking the first image is well under a minute...

My PD Sling 10L carries the SL with both M & SL lenses.  My PD Everyday Messenger carries my DSLR gear (and sometimes the SL with Canon adapter).
