The Ape Case AC540 Envoy Standard Messenger Camera Case looks exactly like the picture. It is very comfortable to carry as the rip-stop nylon is soft and easily form fits alongside your side. It is not bulky like other stiff camera bags. It is intended to sling across your body from the opposite shoulder. I'm right handed so I find it easier to put the strap on the right shoulder and have the bag hang on your left side. Bag easily swivels to your front for access to grip the camera with your right hand. The soft internal organizer can be customized by relocating the 2 vertical dividers to suit your equipment needs. The low profile outside pocket helps carry filters and other slim items. Great camera bag and roomy for a SLR and DSLR. Bag is not bulky and a better size than the 520 model for larger cameras.

Awesome..easy to carry bag that doesn’t look like a camera bag. Use it almost every week.

I bought this for a Panasonic FZ200 kit I put together. I holds the camera, charger, spare batteries, and manuals easily. I added a 1.7X tele-converter and mounting adapter, a .08 WA converter, an FL-36 flash along with a couple of filter sets. It's about as full as it can possibly be, but it's holding up well and the gear has been well protected.

The Ape Case AC540 Envoy Standard Messenger Camera Case is a bit larger than the AC520 version that holds a compact DSLR. This version holds a larger DSLR along with the same amount of gear and accessories. It's still a very affordable way to carry a minimum of gear - your DSLR with two lenses, flash and some accessories. Made from tough, water-repellent rip-stop nylon, the bag has a unique removable padded interior insert that, when not needed, can be set aside to increase its overall interior storage space.
Another benefit of the case is that it doesn't resemble your traditional camera shoulder bag - yet - it holds its share of equipment. There's plenty of extra space for accessories in the two zippered front storage pockets (one on top of the other) as well as two additional interior zippered pockets. All these pockets can be used for memory cards, batteries, cleaning cloths, filters or other small items.
Access to the contents is easy via the center zipper that exposes the interior that uses Ape's exclusive Hi-Vis yellow coloring that will make locating your gear easier when you're shooting in marginal light. The shoulder strap is fully adjustable and contains a cushioned contoured pad with non-slip grip.
