Comments about Lowepro Lowepro Toploader 75 AW, All Weather Holster Style SLR Camera Case, Black.:

I use this bag when I'm working with 1 or 2 cameras that have longer lenses on at least 1 of them (e.g. 24-70mm or 70-200mm).

I keep 1 of the cameras parked in the bag with the other slung around my neck and ready to go. It's pretty effective because I can just swap the cameras, making the bag like a temporary parking spot that delivers great protection.

The only thing I don't like is that other than the camera and then lens, you can't fit much else in the bag such as a flash.

Since the bag is already a bit bulky for a toploader (Lowepro's largest toploader), Lowepro should have gone "all the way" and widened & lengthened the bag by approximately 2 inches in each direction.

Other than that, this bag is the best toploader I have used.

 
Zipper failures makes for a poor value

Comments about Lowepro Lowepro Toploader 75 AW, All Weather Holster Style SLR Camera Case, Black.:

Zipper on the accessory pocket inside the top lid quit working properly after only a few months. Then, at about 1 year, the top lid itself would no longer zip closed. The sharp corners of the top lid cause undue stress/resistance as the pulls pass over them. A better design would round-off the corners far more. No matter the other attributes of the bag, when you can't keep the main compartment sealed shut -- after regular but gentle use over a year's time -- a bag with a [$] price tag is a poor value.

Comments about Lowepro Lowepro Toploader 75 AW, All Weather Holster Style SLR Camera Case, Black.:

I bought this case to house my new Nikon D3. I find that it is a bit too small, not that you can't get the camera and a 70-200mm lens in, but it is a very tight fit. Otherwise it is a wonderfull case and I am very pleased with it.

Comments about Lowepro Lowepro Toploader 75 AW, All Weather Holster Style SLR Camera Case, Black.:

A good pack for toteing your camera around and being able to keep your hands free and have quick easy access to your camera at moments notice. I especially like that it hangs on the front of your body rather than as a backpack style, this makes it very easy to quickly pull your camera out and shoot on moments notice.
