from on-line from Billing Summary: Purchased (£115) to carry a combination of formats, Bronica ETRSi and Canon EF systems. Easily able to accomodate both.
Bag is very deep, able to stack lenses in included padded case then sit camera body on top. Front pockets swallow everything from 550 flash to stacks of P series filters, can even fit an additional SLR body (EOS50 with grip).
Main compartment large enough to hold EOS5 with vertical grip lens down with easy access, Bronica without grip fits easily in padded compartment.
Great benefit is the fully removable padding. Makes for good travel / documents bag.
Top zipper makes access to edges slightly awkward but is hugely weather resistant and combined with the top flap nothing gets in. Good security as a result.
Very flexible design, moulds well to a variety of objects, although does tend to sit away from the body somewhat.
Padded should strap a bit of a let down, and the additional shoulder harness could do with more padding (but does make carrying for long periods much easier.
Documents pocket on rear great for manuals, book etc.
Softens up with age, getting even more comfortable and indescreet. Initially the Khaki can look overpoweringly orange but it fades to a more subtle hue with time. Strengths: Adaptability, from a small outfit with travel / business material to a semi pro set up, will swallow it all. Excelent protection and security. Weaknesses: Shoulder strap, remains stiff and cuts in under heavy loads even with padded section, light colour can show marks easily. Tends to sit away from body rather than "moulding" around hips.
