It fits!

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I bought this bag to take on vacation--easier to carry than the bag I had. I wanted the smallest bag that would work. My Nikon D80 and zoom lens just fit, but they fit and that's what matters. My small camcorder also fits, along with 1 extra lens. That's all I need on a trip. Love the bag. It was the right choice for me!

I've now owned this bag for 6 months. I took it with me while touring Italy and I use it at every shoot I go on. It fits great, is comfortable, holds enough gear to stay mobile but useful and doesn't make me look like a tourist pack mule. In it I carried a Canon 30D, 300mm lens, 50mm lens and a 105mm L lens. All that along with extra batteries, mem cards and a lens hood. I could get to my camera quickly and even change lenses without having to take much time.

This bag is great for limited shoots, short trips, advanced point and shoot equipment, and especially now, as airlines are cracking down on weight and carry on size!!

I can put my whole Canon G-9 System in this bag, including the extra lenses, adapter, filters, SD Cards, flash, Canon TX-1 and Leica C-Lux backup cameras and have room for a notebook and manuals!!!

Good, Quick access, for light use
By True_Strike from Stevens Point, WI on 7/20/2007
Pros:
Easily Accessible Equipment, Lightweight, Strong Construction
Cons:
Uncomfortable Fit
Best Uses:
Transporting Gear
Describe Yourself:
Casual user, Getting started
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

This is a quality product. The construction is good, and it seems like it would be quite durable; and last. This bag seems to have a specific use: Quick access to your camera, and transporting for light use. The quick access would be great for wild life photography, or photos of other subjects of a spontaneous nature. The one strap design allows for this quick access, but does not allow for comfort with extended use.
I tend to go for day hikes, where I will have my pack on the entire day. With this bag, your one shoulder takes all the fatigue, and will eventually get sore. I found that as I was hiking, it wasn't worth it to put my camera back in my pack, as I am always looking for photo opportunities. My camera always ends up staying in my hand for most of the hike. I have returned the product and ordered more of a hiking pack, from Lowepro; as I was impressed with the quality of the product. This one just wasn't for me, but if are looking for a pack that can do what I listed above, this one may be just what you need.

Great Camera Backpack
By ktobleskyVerified Purchaser from Yorba Linda, CA on 2/13/2007
Pros:
Adjustable Harness, Comfortable, Easily Accessible Equipment, Lightweight, Strong Construction
Best Uses:
Protecting Gear, Storing Gear, Transporting Gear
Describe Yourself:
Hobbyist/Enthusiast
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I bought the smaller version. It works if you only have a camera, an extra lens and a flash. If you have more than that, then go with the bigger one.

I like wearing it like a backpack and then beig able to access the camera bag without having to take the pack off.
