Customer Review: A perfect bag for carrying 1 DSLR camera + 2-3 total lenses and flash
This is a perfect bag for carrying: - 1 DSLR camera with 70-200mm f/2.8 (i.e. big) zoom lens attached (mine is Nikon 80-200mm f/2.8 which is comparable in size and weight with Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8) - 1-2 additional lenses and/or flash (I put 17-80mm and 50mm f/1.8 lenses and the SB-400 flash - a couple memory cards and extra battery It's pretty sturdy and tight (with the stabilizing strap), but that's good because the camera and lens won't move much inside the bag. Here are the pros and cons: Pros: 1. Can fit SLR attached with the big 70-200mm f/2.8 lens (or equivalent) 2. Enough room for extra lenses and flash 3. Topload feature for easy access 4. Sturdy and good padding to protect the expensive equipment inside 5. Slim profile and more discreet design (vs some other pro camera bag) 6. Stabilizing strap to minimize movement 7. Lots of compartment for memory cards, batteries, lens cap, etc 8. Less than 3 lbs, and compact size 9. All weather cover is nice to have (and essential for professional) 10. Expandable (i.e. you can manage the divider/padding to create different size of space) Cons: 1. Only take 1 full size SLR (I tried 2 D40s + 18-55mm and it works) 2. A bit pricey (for my amateur standard) 3. Close to 3 lbs (depend on how you see it) 4. Not a backpack model (if you prefer carrying backpack type bag when photographing) 5. Can't put your regular 15 inch laptop in this bag (however you can squeeze in the 8.9 inch netbook). If you want to add your regular notebook, you will need to get the Lowepro Classified 250 AW series 6. Might be a bit too much bag/space for a quick short trip where you don't need to bring your 70-200mm f/2.8 lens (use the Lowepro Topload Zoom series bag instead) 7. Not as easy (as I thought it would be) to pull out the camera in and out of the bag but it's reasonable (maybe it's because of the design and position of the zipper and the fact the bag is still stiff since it is new. I'm expecting it will get better as the bag will get softer/break-in with use) In conclusion, this is a very good (and very stylish) bag if you want to carry a camera attached with the 70-200mm f/2.8 lens (or smaller lens), with 1-2 extra lens (smaller lenses than the 70-200mm f/2.8) and/or flash.
