Before I had this bag, I had a cheap nylon bag that came with my camera. It was OK, but not like this! This one has everything!

Packed with pockets, customizable dividers, large front accessory pocket, and side mesh - it has it all. Great for a 35mm SLR camera and at LEAST two lenses and a flash. Plus, it holds around 3 rolls of extra film! You could use this for a compact camcorder, but make sure you know the measurements.

The only drawback is the shoulder strap - which is just OK, nothing special.

I bought this bag when I first started photographing as a hobby. It has been with me since, through the muck and filth, and has managed to protect all my equipment from the elements without fail. It has PLENTY of space for a reasonable amount of equipment. Mine is stocked with a Canon 35mm (with lens attached), a wide angle lens, tele-zoom lens, flash, filters, and all my cleaning tools. I haven't had any of the problems mentioned about some other bags (leaking, ripping, fabric knotting, zipper failing). Although I'm moving up to more and larger equipment, this will always be my casual shooter bag!

The only qualm I have with this bag is the shoulder strap. The strap is just a plain nylon strap with no slip prevention or shoulder padding. I believe that Samsonite might have considered (with the large capacity of this bag) providing a non-slip padded cover for the strap. Long treks yield a lot of pulling the bag back up on your shoulder and PAINFUL welts. Thus the 4 stars.

This is a pretty decent product. More room than I expected, but the shoulder strap really needs to go. There's absolutely nothing special about it. It could used some sort of padding on it too.
The bag fits my Canon EOS IX Lite 2 lenses, a flash, the owner's manual, 5 rolls of film, and I've still got room.
