Just what is needed if you have two cameras and need storage for other items for a compact storage bag. Room for the cameras, extra lenses, flashes and more. Ideal if you really need compact storage for your gear.

Comments about Tamrac Tamrac 5608, Pro 8, Large Sized, Professional Camera Bag for 35mm or Digital SLRs, Black.:

This is a very well-designed bag with well-thought out features such as the movable dividers, all the little pockets, and the secure closures. I carried a Nikon D90 and D40, four lenses, filters, batteries, lens hoods, SB-600 flash, a memory card case, cleaning supplies, and more for a week on vacation and shooting a wedding/rehearsal. My equipment was well protected and easy to access. Rugged construction and multiple secure closures meant that I could move and transport with confidence. Overall, this is just a great bag if you need to take it all with you.

great, but can really weigh you down

Comments about Tamrac Tamrac 5608, Pro 8, Large Sized, Professional Camera Bag for 35mm or Digital SLRs, Black.:

This is a great bag that can fit a ton of equipment. I can fit two medium-sized bodies, with lenses (with lens hoods), a smaller film body with a 50mm prime, a normal zoom, a couple small primes, and 2 more larger lenses in the space underneath the cameras, or you can put smaller backup bodies in that space, just in case. There is tons of space in the other pockets for filters, cleaning cloths, lens pens, batteries, memory cards, and film. however, if you're going to be carrying this around fully loaded, look into getting a better strap, as the one that comes with the bag feels inadequately padded under a full load. other than that, there really isn't anything wrong with this bag. it's great for carrying around enough stuff to last you through a full day of shooting.

Great bag, may not be suitable for 2 cameras, but easily holds a D300 with battery grip and a 80-200mm lens attached, 2 more lenses and a flash unit, leaving some room to spare for cables, chargers and nicknacks. Has great pockets on sides, and interior is easily adapted to any need. Memory compartment is easily reachable, and very useful.

Excellent camera bag with all sorts of nooks and crannies to stow equipment in.

Long adjustable strap will adjust to any size person and makes carrying it cushy. 4 outside compartments with room for everything from papers.
