Gear easily accessible with the reverse open lid and relatively shallow depth. I had originally intended to use it as a waistpack but have ended up using it mostly as a shoulder bag (after attaching a stronger shoulder strap). Good size as a pillow.

The shoulder strap that comes with the 2000 model is puny. Can bounce a bit on your waist (even with a larger shoulder strap) if you carry heavy equipment. I have found it to be not very comfortable for hikes over 3 hours duration. The rings that the straps clip to are puny on the 2000 model. Not suitable for long lenses (15cm length max).

A great little waistpack that can carry a small (3-4) assortment of short lenses, flash + one 35mm body. The webbing in front of the bag is handy for lens caps + there''s a little front pocket for pens, brushes, tape etc. On the inside of the lid is a compartment for putting in relatively flat items, but it can take a bit of rummaging to find things placed there.

Optex Shoulder Bag (similar to Lowepro Nova, but cheap padding)

This bag is very easy to carry, especially when doing active things, like biking, climbing, etc. It holds my fairly large 35mm camera (with external batt pack), 2 lenses, and a flash and keeps everything handy.

It is also built to withstand just about everything and last forever.

None I can think of.

For a small bag, buy this bag.
