Nice bag; would have liked it if had stationary compartments for lenses so cannot roll out by accident.

It is the best. I wouldn't leave home without it.

I have owned several backpacks and until this one they have all been unsatisfactory. They were all to small, too flimsy or uncomfortable to carry. I carried my Pentax K-1, 5 lenses (my nifty fifty and 35mm prime fit in one compartment), extra batteries, filters, switches, remotes and speed flash. My daughter was with me on my first outing and when I opened it she said "Dad, you forgot the kitchen sink!"It is very good, and is probably the last one that I will own. I would recommend it to anyone.

Feels like a good upgrade from a shoulder bag

I have gotten some good use out of this bag and it's pretty comfortable even loaded with my lenses and camera. I like that I can re-configure the dividers with their velcro, though I wish that the sides were closed in and that there were an adjustable strap that buckles and pulls across the bag straps. That would have earned it one more star in this review.

Perplexing

This could certainly be five starts except for a few very poorly designed features. The good— easy to wear ,terrific capacity,good looking The bad—zippers are not well made and do not easily close the bottom compartment—the lower camera compartment for the camera is certainly ample but one would expect a Velcro strip to better secure the camera body as it can easily slide out when inadvertently opened quickly I would have returned it but I found these flaws out on a ten day trip and felt it would have been irresponsible to to return this

Fine product

This product is compact and well made, very suitable for occasional use but I would say not suited to the abuse a full-time professional photographer would suject it to. For the price it is a no-brain purchase.

Just right for the traveling, amatuer photographer

I fitted in my D800 with a Tamron 24-70 lens attached, a Tamron 70-200 lens and a Nikon 50mm 1.4 lens plus an extra battery and battery charger and still have room left over for miscellaneous travel items in the top compartment. I haven't taken it on a trip yet but have two long vacation trips coming up. It looks well made and plenty comfortable to be touting through airports.

Does job

I bought it because it met airline limits for a "personal item" carry on. Given that limitation, it works well.

Very versatile

Plenty of room for gear. Comfortable, even when full and tripod strapped to back. Very versatile.

Manfrotto Pro Light was not for me - not comfortable, difficult to configure

When I upgraded from a Nikon DX system to full-frame FX, with the resulting increase in bulk and weight, I found that the bags I already owned were too small. It was challenging to find a new bag that could would let me comfortably carry a body, three lenses, a flash, and accessories, particularly when walking around all day during travel. I first tried a Manfrotto Pro Light Camera Backpack, but was disappointed with the poorly padded shoulder straps, bag design with insufficient support, and despite what looks like tons of space for gear, I could never manage to configure the dividers to fit my gear. I returned the Manfrotto bag, and then tried a LowePro Fastpack BP 250 AW II, which I've been very happy with.

I use it all the time but I'm mixed on it.

Solid backpack, good construction, you can fit a huge amount of stuff in it. I can easily get everything I need in there. The bad part: you must be super vigilant about keeping everything zipped up. Twice, I've had the zipper a little bit open after pulling something out, then forgot and picked up the bag and dropped $3000 worth of lenses on the ground. They still work, but are pretty dinged up.

Nice BAG

The lower compartment holds: 2 DSLR cameras,Nikkor 18-300mm lens,Nikkor 50mm 1.8 lens, Canon EF-S 70-300mm lens, EF-S 18-135mm lens, Sigma 10-20mm lens for cannon. The top compartment holds: Ipad,battery chargers and extra batteries for Nikkon and Canon DSLR,Filters,Wireless and wired remote controllers for each camera and a photography book. Since I have a Nikkon and Canon DSLR cameras, I carry identical lenses and accessories for both brands, yet the bag takes them all.

Good on the road

I like this ack pack because it is medium size. it fits between my single camera carry around bag and big back pack for everything. I carried 2 camera bodies and filters plus battery grip and extra batteries and had room to spare. im glad i got this back pack at the deal and its very functional. the only thing i dont like is the opening on different sides that you have to dlip over. but all in all . really fit the sweet spot.

Bag offers good protection

It was on sale for 40. Thought Manfrotto is a good brand so might be worth to give it a try. My last case logic one was around 25.. Its shoulder strap started to show signs of wear in less than 15 trips. With the additional flash that I purchased, i need something bigger. I now carry my t3i with 18-250mm lens, 50mm prime, flash, extra battery, charger.. and still has a lot of room left. It might get too heavy if you really pack it full though. Can't really comment much on the durability at this point.. but it seems pretty solid.

A great backpack from Manfrotto

Having used a Canon Deluxe Photo Backpack 200EG prior to this, I received this bag at first it looked odd shapped bag, but once I put all my glass and my gear, I realized this is perfect for me. Lot's of space and compartment and dividers help protect your gear.

Well Made

Very well made. I like the size and appearance of the bag. I'm a bit disappointed by the storage layout. The backpack will not accommodate my newer Macbook Pro, but it will accomodate a Mac Air. Assuming you are going to use it for only camera gear, no big deal. The lens compartment is accesed by zippered flaps in the back and the opening is awkward for looking at all of your stuff at the same time (the flap won't stay open). Lots of good nooks and crannies for filters and the like. Good lightweight bag.

the item looks solid and can fit 5d with grip +70-200 mm lens

Arrived on time. The item looks solid and can fit 5d with grip +70-200 mm lens. But items only came with two year warranty not like the Crumpler millions dollar series. Maybe it reflects the quality a little bit. Again, no issue so far till it was field tested.

The Manfrotto Advanced Tri-Backpack (Small) provide 3 ways to store, carry and use your gear. You may use it in the backpack, sling bag or "x" position. Suitable for your DSLR with standard lens attached, 1-2 additional lenses, flash and accessories plus media card storage. The unique design of this pack allows you to access your gear even with the traditional backpack shape. In the backpack or "x" position with the straps across your chest you can easily and quickly swing the pack to your left or right side by simply releasing the quick release buckles. This means you don't have to remove the entire pack to retrieve gear.

The pack is essentially divided in half with the bottom half for your photo gear and the top half for other items. It is slim and efficient in design. The main camera compartment comes with modular padded dividers that give you the freedom to arrange the pack to suit your gear needs. The top compartment can also be used to store less frequently needed gear. There are two external zippered pockets that allow you to retrieve accessories without having to open the main compartments. The front of the pack contains tripod straps that can accommodate a small size tripod.
