For Canon 300/2/8 IS, 400/4 DO IS or Nikon 300/2.8 with the hood & lettherette cap in the storage position.

For Canon 200/2 lens with the hood & leatherette cap in the stowed position (not verified by a field report yet).

This is a compact alternative to our Long Lens Cases, which are designed to hold a lens and a body together. This case is lined with 10mm (other lens pouches use 6mm) closed-cell foam. The bottom has a tough 13mm PolyCore™ insert, which is same material used in the side-walls of our PolyCore™ long lens cases.

Field report on Canon 400/4 DO lens (May 07): "I thought that you might like to know that it fits this lens beautifully with the leatherette lens cap on -- it's nicely snug but not overly tight at all.
It's just the right diameter to hold it securely while still being just wide enough that the lens slides in more or less under it's own weight (which isn't a lot on a DO!) without having to force it in.
I bought a lens case from you because the Lowepro Lenscase 5 that the dealer threw in with my 400 DO didn't actually fit! -- well it did with the hood and cap off, but that's not much use!  And that's the biggest lens case that Lowepro makes!!"

Note: Because of the sung fit on this pouch, if you want to carry a 300/2.8 attached to a waist belt, consider the E870 pouch instead. Here's why: if you wear the E660 on your hip, then the bow or curvature of your body protrudes into the case, making it hard to remove the lens (not to mention it is uncomfortable). If you can position the case near your back, then the E660 would work OK on a waistbelt.
