 A Great Buy... July 29, 2008

This bag is definitely multi-functional. Works for a camcorder as well as a camera. Lots of storage space that is adjustable to suit individual needs & a rain cover that is built-in. Extremely pleased with my purchase.

This is my 1st backpack camera bag. Spent a lot of time researching them & for the money and amount of space, plus construction/padding I couldn't find one that could beat it. I'm extremely glad I picked it, I love it and can't imagine being with out it now! :)
Fit:
-------------------
Fuji S100 28mm-400mm Camera
Panasonic DV Video Camera & Attachable 15Watt Light.
Extra Battery for both.
30 gigabytes SD-Cards.
3 Blank DV Tapes
4 foot collapsible tripod.
All my cables & chargers.
... and there is still a little room! Extremely versatile in how you set up the inside of your bag. You could carry anything from a bowling ball to everything I listed above in a nice tightly organized fashion.
Best Wishes,
- DOUG G.

 good, but could be better June 9, 2008

This backpack has a great potential to be my favorite, but it has some serious design flaws.
PROS:
- excellent protection for equipment
- has just a right amount of room to fit all of my "field" gear (including my precious 80-200 2.8)
- internal separators are very flexible in adjustment to desired compartment configuration
- ideal for hiking, travel and as a carry on. Very comfortable fit.
- THE BEST PART: built in weather protection - has protective stow-away cover. This alone is good enough reason to buy this!
CONS:
One of the things I love most about lowepro is flexibility of using street&field system. With this backpack there are only 2 SlipLock tabs on each of the sides. Look carefully at the photo featuring the product. The bag has compression straps which work really well, however, once the pouches are attached, the feature becomes useless. Straps are not long enough to go over most pouches, and there's no way to slip them under as they stretch right across the tab. Why? Why? Why?
There are also no loops on the shoulder straps, which would be nice to have for smaller slipLock pouches or a memory wallet.
Another design draw back is the way tripod is mounted. The holding pouch folds out and hangs, so it makes it impossible to set the bag vertically. This also prevents weather cover to be pulled over the backpack, so if you're caught in a rain, get ready to carry the tripod in your hand. The system however, is secure and convenient for carrying around tri/mono-pods. It held up great on my travels and hikes.
I should probably also mention that it is rather heavy, but for carrying around thousand[s] dollars worth of gear, the protection it extends at the cost of the weight is something I don't mind. This item is designed exclusively for photo gear, so there really no expectation for storage for anything other than that.
With a minor revision to the overall design this would be a 5-star product. Either way, I'm still satisfied with this backpack, and do trust it.

I bought this backpack based on the two previous reviews, and I have to say that I'm pleased with it, overall. There are a couple of little things that I haven't adjusted myself to yet, since I haven't used the backpack a lot yet. But I haven't found a good way to attach and carry my tripod. When I figure that out, I'll have no complaints at all. I also have a little problem with one of my cameras fitting into one of the camera compartments. My Nikon D200 has an added battery pack on the bottom, which makes it a little too tall to fit in the designated place, but it looks like I can reorganize the compartments without too much trouble, so I plan to try that.
Most Excellent! March 27, 2008

Worth every penny. If you're looking for a backpack camera bag then look no further. I have a smaller version as well, but I love the large one for my Canon Digital Rebel and three lenses. Also consider the extra add-ons such as lens tubes and water bottle holders which can be clipped on the loops on the outside. So it is also expandable.
