Aiyo, why not? Travel with whichever lens you want, mounted or not. My own choice would be to mount a more general-purpose wider lens such as the kit lens, unless you're traveling to a place where you will be mainly photographing distant objects.
And your bag doesn't matter.
no la i hear ppl damaging their lens mount esp with telephotos... cos the amt of stress is different... :sweat:

Woah in a crumpler bag by itself?

I have a question to ask, how abt moisture during flight does it effect the lens. Cos my buddy had tis problem once, he check in the dslr camera as luggage and wen he wan to use it the zoom lens doesn't works as there's moisture in it. And how r we goin to avoid that wen let say at Genting highland let alone others mountain...??

Moisture during flight? Airplane cabins have very very DRY air. Sounds more like he had condensation after landing. It should clear pretty quickly though.
Guys please, a DSLR is not made of sugar, it's not going to fall apart if you sneeze on it. Just use it! They're designed and tested in far rougher conditions than Genting highlands.
Common sense applies... Since lenses are made of glass, much like a person's specs, they'll gather condensation if you go from cold to warm and moist too quickly (before the lens can adjust temperature to match). And once the temperatures have equalized,the condensation is gone.
Worry less, shoot more, your camera is designed for taking pictures, not being coddled and pampered.
Would bringing a dry cabinet around be good?
