Great bag, but heavy! January 29, 2008
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
This is a great photo bag, with a couple of caveats.
The bag is larger than I expected, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. There is plenty of adjustable room for my Canon 40D SLR with attached 17-85 lens, and my Sony TRV-240 camcorder. I also have the video light for the camcorder, lens hood for the 40D and all the cables, batteries, tapes, manuals, etc., with room to spare.
The biggest downsides to this bag, in my opinion, are its weight (12 lbs. empty) and the fact that you can't totally remove the harness system and just make it into a "suitcase". I don't plan on going hiking with the bag -- I just wanted a sturdy and safe bag to store all my gear in, and I found that in this bag.
Other than those two points, this is a great bag which I would purchase again.

This is a spacious photo backpack, easily carrying a couple of long telephotos, SLR bodies, with three or four shorter lenes as well and smaller accessories. Additional lenes, accessories can be attached to the sides and front with Lowepro accessory pouches, though, by adding these, you might end up with more weight than you would want to carry very far. For comfort, I recommend limiting the tripod to be packed to under 26' length and 5-6 lbs. maximum.
Even loaded, the pack carries well with a wide firm waist strap transferring much of the load to you hips.
This is a serious backpack and may be larger than you first imagine.
An excellent option October 12, 2007

I searched for camera backpacks to pack up both my D70 and T2 Rebel EOS, and I finnaly settled on this pack. At first, I was somehow doubtfull because of the price. Wel, I received the pack and it is simply awesome!!!
It's a big pack, it is actually filled with both of my SLR's, a Nikkor 18-200mm, a nikkor 35mm, a canon 50mm, my nikon flash (SB-800), about 10 filters in its boxes, cleaning supplies, cables and it still has room to spare (It will accept about three more lenses!!)
The backpack is really sturdy and very well bult. I've seen people complaining about it's weight, but the weight is just a consequence of it's toughness; it really comes down to being a personal choice: a light pack that won't hold up in the long run, or a beeffy pack that WILL protect your camera gear! And that's the whole point of buying the pack isn't it?
Highly recomended!! worth every dollar I paid for!!
As a previous reviewer said, this pack IS bigger than you think it is!!
PS: I forgot to mention that this backpack has a great ergonomics design. Even though the pack is heavy, and when it is loaded with camera stuff, even more so, thing is that it actually distributes the load over your shoulders through waist like no other backpack! However, it is not easy to find the correct adjustments, so you must play with all the different adjustments (shoulder harness is movable, shoulder straps and load stabilizer straps) in order to find your own ergonomic sweetspot...

Carries 3 Canon SLR's 4 lens including 300 mm f4 and 70- 200 2.8. small bag carries chargers... biggest issue is getting airline to let you carry this bag on due to weight it will hold... great product...
