Pretty Good Bag...Almost Great.
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
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.

A good serviceabble case
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.

Almost flawless in design.
Use it on snowmobiles, ATV's and hiking. It is a great design.

very good pack
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.

Fine product and well made
This product is very useful when hiking in the back country or at an event when you need your hands free.
