Through happenstance, I discovered today that I can use my bag bellows with my 240mm lens at infinity (at which I most often shoot). Generally I carry 65/90/159/240/450; this means I can use the bag with 4 out of 5 of my lenses. So I'm gonna try to think the other way around -- the bag should be my normal bellows, which I can swap out to the "extended" bellows when using the 450.
It's one of those combo designs, with a bag in front and 4 or5 accordian folds behind. If yours is similar, don't "sell it short" -- it may be more useful than you realize.
