5.0 out of 5 stars My arms are free!, December 23, 2006

I like backpack type cases, whether for computers or cameras. It leaves your arms free, although you have to put the pack down to get things in and out of it. It holds my DSLR with a lens on it and three other lenses, including a very big 80~200 zoom. It has plenty of pockets and places to store things, and the tripod holder works very well. I also like the handle on top that lets you just pick the pack up and go.

Full, it's quite a load to carry, but I think I'd rather have it on my back than slung over my shoulder. However, it's hard to say whether this pack is the one for you. A shoulder bag is easier to get things in and out of, and a belt pack is very convenient if you only need room for a few items.

I use the bag with my Canon 5D + 4 lens (70-200L, 24-70L, 16-35L and 85mm) and a flash and that pretty much fills up the primary storage area. The adjustable pads made it easy to lay everything out, but it is packed tight.

Carrying the equipment when its in the bag is much easier on my shoulders than my old Domke shoulder bag. I don't have much of a problem with getting the camera out and changing lens as I don't often change lens when I'm on the run (usually when I want to swap lens frequently is when I'm standing still taking lots of pictures of some event such as a sporting event).

Secondary storage area is great for carrying other stuff -- book, snacks, video camera (small), etc.

Very happy with the bag. Much preferred over my old shoulder bag.

Good little backpack. Has plenty of room, for it's size. Fits in plane overhead compartment with no problem, even when full.
