Summary:

A great bag for the outdoors if you intend on carrying a lot of equipment. Padded enough for you to forget you are carrying a lot of gear.

Strengths:

Fits a medium woman's frame, holds 2 bodies + 7 lenses, well balanced & padded, very supportive. Being a backpack, you can carry your gear and use it at the same time.

Weaknesses:

None.

Model 777 Summit Photo Backpack

Summary:

Good design, attractive appearence, compartments are adjustable to my equipment. Price was fair. I would recommend this product to my friends. Use "Quick-Release" style buckles.

Strengths:

Size is just right for my equiptment, with room to grow. Balance when worn is easly adjusted. Because of my impairment, I must be careful what I strap on my back...this unit works for me.

Weaknesses:

I could not find anything I would consider a "weakness"...it is what its' supposed to be. If anything, the snaps or buckles could be "Quick-Release" type...easier for arthritic hands.

Similar Products Used:

Lowpro and another odd brand, felt bulky and heavy, too large for me

Customer Service:

I am physically impaired due to osteoarthritis & I can wear this longer without severe discomfort.

Model 777 Summit Photo Backpack

Summary:

Great bag, especially if you want to carry your bag on airplane flights.

Strengths:

strong zippers keep things together, even when you over-stuff it ; I have the spectra-grid version which is tear-resistant; also small enough to carry-on an aircraft

Weaknesses:

It's deep enough to layer my lens., but if layered, it's hard to reach for it. Expensive!!!!

Similar Products Used:

Lowepro packs, and seal-tight cases

Customer Service:

noever tried it.
