Strength:

Durability and layout are what attracted me to this model. I have no doubt that it will last me indefinitely. It allows for fast and easy access to any equipment in the main body and the compartments are laid out to really simplify any task. There seems to be a compartment for every item and then some. It will easily hold 2 slrs and about 8 lenses plus a flash in the main compartment. It has a convenient holder for your film as to keep them seperated and sorted. I can see why it's been the number one LowePro bag. To top it all off, it only weighs 5 lbs, 1.5 oz., nothing for a bag with so much.

Weakness:

None as it stands and I can't foresee any in the future to be honest.

I had to make a decision on which bag to upgrade to. I almost went with the Compact version of the same bag but after a good conversation with the sales lady she easily convinced me this bag would suit my needs more efficiently. She was bang on!! The durability as fore-mentioned, the layout... it has everything going for it! Everything is adjustable and I have it set so my extra lenses are snuggled tightly with no room for play. You can easily carry two SLRs, 1-2 flash/es, 8 lenses, and a large number of filters, a light meter, and all kinds of gadgets. I hadn't realized how convenient the film compartment "bag" was either until now, it makes everything so much more accessable and easy to sort. If you are considering a bag of this size don't hesitate on going with this Magnum AW. You will definitely not regret it. Great bag Lowepro!!!

Customer Service

None needed and am confident none will be either.

Padded shoulder-strap
Film bag included

Weakness:

I think it's just a little too small......naaahhhh !

You can fit almost anything inside. I put an Eos 3 with Power-drive, 28-70mm L, 70-200mm L, 20mm, 90mm macro, a flash bracket, 550ex flash, 5 filters, a dozen films and other tit-bits inside and i still have a little bit of room left. Too bad it can't house my Quantum X2 flash :( Well, can't have all huh ?

Strength:

Big, lots of room, lots of pockets, waterproof, durability and layout. I hop this bag will last me for a long time to come...

Weakness:

None, but fully loaded, it may kill your back.

It’s a good bag, worth every penny, and I would buy another, or may be take it one step up, for the person who must carry every thing, It’s excellent !!!
