Great shoulder bag. I carry my Olympus E-M1 MARK II and the 12-40 MM & the 40-150 MM. Along w/ an extra battery & the charger. A couple extra memory cards & the flash. Yes I would recommend this messenger bag!!!!

Was going to use the bag for storage but liked the looks and made it my main toter.

Very pleased I purchased this bag. I was able to carry my Canon 7d and Canon R, each with a lens attached along with batteries, lunch, and other items. Used it in different environments from desert to mountains to ocean without a problem. Kept everything dry in light rain, kept dust out. The only thing I would ask for is for it to have 2 handles, just one handle made it slight awkward to carry in hand, which I did most of the time, but just a small thing. Even survived a fall w/o damage to bag or gear inside. Fit in all 4 flights overhead storage.

I purchased two sizes of the camera bad as I love it. Plenty of room and easy access. The rain cover is a wonderful bonus. Highly recommend.

This camera bag is perfect and it’s what I’ve been looking for ! I appreciate that the bag zips open easily and has no extra flap to deal with. There is room for some personal items as well so I don’t need to carry anything extra. Love it

Very happy with this bag! Plenty of room for my D750 and extra lenses. Not heavily padded but I just add a little padding around the lens.

This is a well thought out bag that allows room for a lot of stuff and is comfortable to carry.

A very useful bag. Most camera bags fall into 2 categories. 1. the everything I own and 2 .one camera and not mch else. This one is a pleasant in between you can carry a camera ,lenses and a flash. It is well designed for ease of access with enough pockets for extra items like batteries and cards. The only downside is that the zipper tags are leather and I've already had one come off but some pliers fixed that.

Good size for my MacBook Pro and extra two lenses and an external flash unit, and still have enough room for few items as chargers, extra battery, etc. If the inner bag has straps would be perfect if don't need to carry all the gears.

Highly recommended, especially for sports photography. This bag does not carry a lot, and is ideal for individual assignments. You can leave a spot open in the bag, and when you want to change lenses simply remove the lens from your camera and place it down into the bag. Then take out the other lens you want to use. When shooting sports it's not always easy to find a place to set down the lens you just removed from the camera while you change lenses, especially on a sports field. Because the bag opens in the middle, (a really great feature for me) when the bag is open it doesn't feel as though it's going to tip and spill the contents. The bag stays close to your side, upright and keeps your equipment very secure. This bag will hold the Nikon 70-200 2.8 zoom lens (just) on end, which makes changing lenses easier and more secure. The strap is well designed and the shoulder pad stays in place as you move the bag around towards your back. Quality seems good, and you can move the insert inside the bag around as you please, which makes it very easy to quickly arrange your equipment for a quick shoot.

I wanted a bag that opened in the middle. With other bags I was often fighting with the top of the bag and they never felt secure when open while hanging on my shoulder. I often shoot sports and when I change lenses there isn't always someone to hold the lens I take off the camera. I'm on my feet a lot and there is no place to set the lens down that just came off the camera. I wanted a bag I could simply slip a lens into without it feeling like the lens was going to fall out. This bag works ideal. It is also large enough to hold a 70-200 2.8 Nikon Zoom lens in an upright position. It's not a bag to haul all your gear, just enough for a days shooting which is all I need.

A few weeks ago, I purchased a Lowepro Scout SH120. At 10.00 I figured it was worth a flyer. Unfortunately it was a tight fit for my LX100,flash, filters and an I-pod. This Havana 21 is much better for my needs. It's larger, but with a slimmer profile. The side pockets are perfect for my I-pod and the front and back pockets allow me to have nothing on the inside except my camera, flash and filter. Just what I was looking for!

I searched for hours for a cute bag to carry my camera in that didn’t shout to everyone around “hello I’m a tourist here is my camera” this one was not only cute but also affordable and practical. It fits my camera 2 lens and charging connections with room for my wallet as well making me not have to carry a secondary purse. 100% recommend.

I was looking for a camera bag which allowed easier/quicker access to my camera. I had been using a backpack design which was accessed from the rear of the pack. Very secure, but akward to access at times. This bag is large enough for me to carry my two prime lenses, a 35mm and a 50mm, plus my Nikon D7000 with a 18-300mm mounted. There is still room to spare and the bag itself appears well made. I'm happy with this bag and looking forward to using it more once the weather improves.

A quality bag in construction and design. Just a little smaller inside than I thought. The sectioned and padded insert included is much smaller than the interior of the bag. So to fully utilize all the available space, some items placed inside the bag will have to be placed outside of any padded sections. The adds seemed to show more capacity. Don't get me wrong, I like the bag and will keep and use it. Just will need a larger one from another company like think tank.

I thought I had made a mistake when this bag arrived. It looked so small. After using it I find that the bag fits the gear that I want to carry most of the time. Presently this bag is holding a Canon 60D, a 50mm 1.8 stm and hood (reversed), a 18-200 canon lens, and a 24mm pancake lens. I could still hold a another pancake lens . In the front pocket I have 2 spare batteries,a microfiber cleaning cloth and a lens brush. There's still room in the two side pockets and back pocket for more items.
