Great little backpack!, November 22, 2008
This is a great small/medium camera backpack. I wanted something I could carry on my back (both for weight distribution and theft deterrence). My Canon Rebel XSi EASILY fits in with both of my lenses (18-55 mm kit lens, 55-250 mm zoom lens) -- either lens attached; plus the other in another compartment in this bag. I was able to remove one shoulder strap and just swing it around to grab my camera without removing the backpack entirely. Everything I would normally carry in my purse fit in the top part. I didn't want a big bag to lug around, so I wasn't surprised or upset, but -- neither my monopod nor my tripod will fit in here. If you want that -- you'll want a bigger bag. I don't have tons of equipment (yet) but this is perfect for my needs -- One SLR camera, two lenses, spare battery, plus all my personal stuff (cell phone, wallet, etc) -- with plenty of room left.

fits my Nikon D40 with 18-200 zoom lens, June 25, 2008
I do not understand the previous reviewer's comment that a SLR with 18-55 lens does not fit in this bag. Maybe he is using a big pro-style f/2.8 lens? With proper configuration of the pads, my Nikon D40 SLR with 18-200 f/5.6 zoom lens fits fine in the camera compartment and there is a padded pocket for a small extra lens or flash. If you want to carry more gear, one of the bigger Fastpacks is probably a better idea. I like the small size of this bag for long walks around town. The Fastpack 100 is significantly smaller than the Fastpack 200, so I do not have to worry about bumping in to people on the sidewalk or when standing in a bus. The top compartment of this pack holds extra supplies (or lunch or a guidebook). My only complaint is that the water bottle pocket is too short and too snug for a 1 liter water bottle. The bigger Fastpacks have a bigger and more flexible water bottle pocket. A 1 pint water bottle will fit in the pocket pretty well.

Excellent Case For Minimal Equipment, August 12, 2008
The Backpack is solid, well built and is good protection for my equipment. My Nikon D50 with 18-200mm VR Zoom and my speedlight 600 fits comfortably in the camera compartment (with the speed light flipped down). It allows me easy access to get the camera in and out of the bag when the bag is on my left shoulder and slung around to my front. The upper compartment is large enough to hold what ever I might need during a day out.
