The backpack and tripod work great. I spent the first half hour just exploring the backpack to find all of the pockets. The tripod weighs hardly anything, and the handle makes it very portable. This backpack doesn't have a strap for hooking the tripod on, but that should be pretty easy to do with bungee cords. The cleaning kit is a little ghetto, but given the price, I'm not complaining.

I was a little nervous about the bag initially. I slung it over my left arm and it just didn't feel very secure. I'm sure there was some type of instruction manual included that explained that you put it over your head and then the strap goes from your right shoulder across your chest, but what red-blooded American ever read instruction booklets.

Love the bag - it just fits my 70-200mm F/2.8 lens with the 1.4 extender attached. It is fantastic to be able to slide the bag around and change lenses or access equipment without needing to set things on the ground.

The tripod is about what you'd expect and so is the lens cleaning kit. The bag is fantastic.
