Comments about Domke DOMKE F-5XC Large Shoulder / Belt Canvas Camera Bag, Olive:
I love this bag for a number of reasons. First, it does not look like a camera bag, so I don't feel like I'm advertising my equipment while traveling. Second, I have put the bag through a lot, and it stands up to the challenge. I've only had the bag for a year, but I have traveled to at least 4 continents with it, putting it through flights, hikes, train rides, and rolling down sand dunes. None of the stitches have come apart, and the zipper is strong and well made. Third, I like the design of the bag with the durable canvas material, but that's a very personal choice of the look.
This is not a very large bag. I normally carry my 40D with a 17-40mm, and a 70-200mm, plus my 430EXII flash. That packs the bag pretty full with the zipper bulging a little.
A few minor complaints: The velcro closure is very loud, and I wish there are at least 1 zippered pocket for small things like memory cards and cleaning cloth. These things are minor, so I still gave the bag a 5-star.

This bag works perfect with my Canon 50D, one extra lens and Flash, which is all I want to carry sometimes---in a bag that doesn't look like a camera bag. Small, light and the non-slip strap is SECOND TO NONE
