5.0 out of 5 stars The Perfect Bag, January 6, 2009

This is the perfect bag for holding my equipment, which includes 2 camera bodies (Canon EOS 40D and 50D, 3 lenses, (Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS, Canon EF 17-40mm f/4L, and a Canon EF 50mm f/1.8), a Canon 430EX flash, 2 battery chargers, and 2 additional Lowepro compact flash cases, plus a 15.4 inch Dell laptop. My only concern, is if I'll be able to get this on an airplane as carry on luggage. GREAT BAG!

I had gone to a local camera store to shop for bags first hand before buying one (at a lower price) online. This is one that had caught my eye - I like the layout a lot. Lot's of pockets for keeping items separated, I don't like storing everything in the same big pouch. I notice that the separators in the camera/lens area are very thoughtfully made - they are easy to move and they also allow access underneath them as well. Some bags I've owned don't. Great build quality - METAL clasps, good padding, good material and the weather resistant touches are useful. Very nice touch that there is an all-weather cover hidden in the bottom - it doesn't take up room and it is easy to pull out and over the bag in case you need it. Very nice laptop pocket in this bag because it is well padded and to the back (but not all the way to the back) and out-of-the-way. My only dislike about this bag (and the only reason I gave it 4stars) is the handle on the top of the bag (not the large strap), which I don't think is all that well designed. It should have the quick-release clasps so it can be taken off quickly and also so it will swing out of the way easier. Otherwise a great bag with lot's of space that is well built. An added plus for me was the great price I got by buying online instead of at the local store.

I've been using this bag since December 09, and I've been very satisfied with the material and build of this bag. PERFECT. What's in my bag you ask?
1.(2x) Nikon D300s 12MP CMOS Digital SLR Camera (Body Only) 1 of'em with battery grip MB-D10
2. Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8G ED VR II AF-S NIKKOR Lens For Nikon Digital SLR Cameras
3. Nikon 10-24mm f/3.5-4.5G ED AF-S DX Nikkor Lens for Nikon Digital SLR Cameras
4. Nikon 50mm f/1.4G SIC SW Prime Nikkor Lens for Nikon Digital SLR Cameras
5. Nikon 105mm f/2.8G ED-IF AF-S VR Micro-Nikkor Lens
6. Kenko DG Auto Extension Tube Set for the Nikon AF Mount.
7. (2x)Nikon SB-900 AF Speedlight Flash for Nikon Digital SLR Cameras
8. MacBook 13.3 (I believe this bag would still fit 17", many space still)
9. Lumiquest The Softbox III - Lumiquest LQ-119
10. Manfrotto 785 Modo Maxi Photo Video Grip Head Tripod (YES, it's strong enough for this tripod. I hang this on the side)


Also many other small stuffs, such as CF Cards, shutter cable, flash triggers, Sanyo Eneloop 8 Pack AA NiMH, cleaning brush, couple B&W filters, cellphone chargers..ETC

As you can see, I do carry many stuffs..and this bag is STRONG.
If you're a single wedding photographer and don't have a partner or helper..this maybe your best bag. Plus it looks very professional. I don't like those backpack style..it makes people look like a high school kid not a pro.

Comfort wise, well.. the shoulder strap has good padding. I would give it a 9
the bag also has a water sealer, located on the bottom, so you can cover the whole bag.. even without interfering with the shoulder strap. very nice.

I can attached my D300s with 70-200mm lens ON together IN the bag facing down, and still have plenty extra space.

The only DOWNSIDE I have now, is that..the bag SAGS to the front now.. maybe because I have so much stuffs or also maybe the way I put things aren't properly balanced.

Also, if Lowepro is reading this...
Please put some padding on the top,under the top zipper to protect people's expensive investments, in case people put some stuffs on top.
