Great bag but small

This is a great SLR camera bag however it is a bit on the small side. I have a Nikon D40 and a 70-300 zoom lens and a 18-55 kit lens as well as an external flash and the battery charger. With all these items in the bag it is quite cramped and items fit very snugly. This is good in that your camera wont fall out accidentally if you open the zipper however, you must open the entire bag to get each component out. There is only one removable Velcro strap to hold the camera down. I find odd since the rest of the lenses can pop out if you are wearing the backpack on your back. Just go to walmart and pick up some Velcro straps ($3-$5) in the crafts department and use those to hold down the other lenses and flash.

excellent choice

Loved, loved this case. It's just the right size for my needs. Holds my Nikon body and 3 lenses as well as flash. I'm not a professional photographer, but enjoy quality products...it's not a mongo, flashy, here I am and I've got expensive gear kind of look. Would buy again.

Great bag, a couple flaws

The bag works well overall and has many compartments and configuration options.

My two problems were the straps killed my shoulders after a few hours. Mainly because they sewed leather strips onto the straps. This would drag my t-shirt, causing irritation. I had to cut off the leather strips. That wasn't too optimal.

Second was the big lip covering the zipper makes it a bit tough to zipper quickly. It gets stuck several times in the opening and closing process.

Even with those flaws, I still like the bag for its compactness, sturdiness, and style.
