Jack A : I am looking for a bag that will fit all my equipment, easy to get into, and not difficult to carry as necessary. I have the following items to place into the bag: Nikon D700 body; 14-24mm f2.8 lens; 28-70mm f2.8 lens; 70-200mm f2.8 lens; 300mm f2.8 lens; 2 tele-converters; Nikon flash; compact flash disks, batteries, charger?Stephen B : You will have way more room than you need in this case. In mine, I have (2) 5D III, (1) 7D, 17-40, 24-70, 70-200, 85 1.2, 50 1.2, 35 1.4, a flash, 3 Canon chargers, 8 batts, 2 CF card cases, filters, 15" Macbook Pro w charger, etc. It is well made and looks like luggage. However, it will NOT fit in some overhead compartments on airplanes. And those that it does, it will not fit "wheels in" like they want it to. I have been told many times it will have to be checked. But I tell them it contains lithium ion batteries (which are prohibited from going under the plane), show them my media credentials, and they leave me alone.JEREMY A : No problem. I carry a gripped 5DMKII with 70-200,gripped 5DMKII with 16-35mm, 100 macro, 50mm, 4 600EX flashes, transmitter, light meter, etc, etc.
BERTRAM S : I have a similar bag, but stopped using it outdoors because the ground clearance between the wheels, when being pulled, was so small that the slightest unevenness of any pathway caused the bottom of the bag to drag, when passing over high spots between the wheels. How much ground clearance does the bag base have between the wheels, when canted to the pulling angle? Are the wheels sturdy enough for light use over, say, a gravel or earth path? Many thanks for any help.ERIC T : The bag I just commented on was a different design it appears you have the integrated wheels now. Those wheels should be bigger to avoid abrasions to the outer skin. ERIC T : I have found that the wheel design was poorly conceived. The wheels do not give me a sense of quality and security if rolling on a surface other than a concrete floor during my travels. The wheels make a fair amount of noise probably due to their cheaply made design. I really like that you can extend the wheels outwards for a more stable footing when in tow. The one problem I found when extending the wheels is if you pull too hard the wheel with axel attached will fully separate from the main assembly. Replace the wheels with something more substantial like those used on luggage or rollerblades. Other than that the bag suits my needs but is over priced. TIMOTHY B : It's a fantastic bag. They are extremely well built. I've been a Lightware fan since the early eighties. I've switched over. Honestly, everything is subjective . Including the equipment we photographers like to use. To me it travels fine, clears everything in it's path. Plus it looks good when I'm entering a clients space. Contact the company, get the true spec's on it. Research the product like you were getting info on a client you wanted to work for. Do the homework, I did . Hope it helps.

Shopper : Is this case strong enough to sit on when it is vertical (wheels down)?DALE T : I haven't sat on it yet, but it shows it in the addANDREW R : While relatively rigid, I don't believe that sitting on this case would be advised.
