I've had this bag for 2 years now, it's a great piece of gear. It's most often used as my main camera bag, but I have also used it just a cargo backpack (camping, travelling etc). I am able to comfortable fit the following gear into it: -Nikon D3 -Nikkor prime lenses (20mm, 35mm, 50mm x 2, 85mm, 135mm) with one of the smaller primes attaches the body. -4 pocket wizards plus caddies. -2 small grids and my set of gels in the side pockets. -Cleaning equipment, memory card wallet & various cables. And still have a little bit of room for any other bits and pieces. The construction is the best I have seen on any of my bags and it has stood up to constant abuse, dirt and poor weather. It's also incredibly comfortable to wear for extended periods of time fully loaded. Best camera bag I have seen and used yet. Perfect size for a med/large main pack to fit most to all of your gear in.

Bought this two years ago - fantastic bag, VERY comfortable and rugged. Build quality is excellent, mine's been dragged through sand, mud, across concrete and thrown into cars without missing a beat. Only niggle is that it's sometimes hard to get stuff out right at the bottom.. took me a few goes at arranging the dividers to get around this. I can fit the following in it: 20D+grip+24-70L+hood reversed 135L+hood reversed 50mm 1.4+hood reversed 17-40L+hood separately 580EX in case Accessories pouch Very comfortable bag to wear all day. The back-opening is peace of mind and useful when you're putting the bag down in dirty places. Highly recommended.

I love this bag! Fits all my photo gear and laptop in a slick protective shell that's built like a tank. The bag is quite comfortable to carry around, even loaded up.
