Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)First of all, this bag is pretty darn big. I plan on using it as a day bag for trips, but only because I'm the type of guy that travels with several lenses. It holds my Canon 7D body with five lenses, including the huge 70-200 2.8 IS. I'm also able to squeeze in an extra body in there if I need it. Of course, this will make the bag weigh a TON, but that's why you bought a big bag, right? I haven't even tried to stuff my laptop in there, for fear my shoulder will fall off.
The saving grace of the bag weight is the handle on top. It's such a nice feature that more bags should adopt. It's really nice to be able to grab the top of the bag by the handle when I need to shift positions for any reason (like getting in and out of seats or cars). It also helps for when I just want to pick the bag up off the floor and quickly move it somewhere. An A+ feature that more bags should have.
The other huge feature of this bag is the easy access top zipper. To many bags require me to open the whole flap to one side just to get at my equipment. The easy access top zipper makes lens swapping a breeze.
The only gripe (the reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5) I will give is the shoulder strap padding. I wish it was the type of pad that I could slide back and forth. Instead, the padding is in a fixed position. For a guy like me who is constantly shifting bags around to make them more comfortable, this is kind of annoying. That being said, the strap is perfectly usable, and I do use it.
All in all it's by far the most versatile bag I've found. I didn't even get to mention the fact that you can buy additional add-on accessories that will clip onto the sides of the bag (for stuff like filter and bottle holders). I actually plan on rigging one of the side-loops as a tripod holder (the only feature missing from this bag).
So, the bottom line--if your shoulder can handle it, you won't regret it.
