I love this bag. Only wish it as just a little bit bigger to fit my flash but the size was what I was looking for for a run around bag.

This product was purchased for day-carry of a D90 with kit lens (18-105mm). The camera is a snug fit after adjustment of the internal partitions. It seems to be designed to wear over the left shoulder. Worn this way, the bag hangs "level" on the wearer's back and the wider, padded portion of the strap falls on the shoulder as it should. However, when the bag is brought around to the front for opening, it hangs at an angle which is not optimum for accessing the contents. Moving it to the right shoulder lets it hang level when swung to the front (for easy gear access) but puts the narrow portion of the strap on the shoulder when swung to the back.
The nylon "hook" attachment straps on the internal partitions are cut "square" across the ends and cause "sharp" points at the corners which feel as if they might have a tendency to scratch soft materials. This can be corrected by removing the partitions, rounding off all the right-angle corners with scissors, and re-installing. (Tamrac should do this).
Finally, the weight of the D90 tended to pull on the upper velcro attachment point. I relieved the weight resting on the top of the partitions by placing a 1" thick sponge rubber pad at the bottom of the lens compartment to allow the lens to support part of the weight.
