 Topload Bag Review August 29, 2010
William Biondini
An excellent bag when you're just carrying a camera with no additional lenses. It's very light weight when empty, yet held my D700 with a 28-105 zoom, lens hood, lens tissue, etc. Construction seems fairly rugged, so it should last. I also have the Lowepro belt for use with the case and recommend this combination.
 Simple and Solid August 21, 2010
B. Wilcox (Ohio)
I have yet to be disappointed by a Lowepro product. I recently purchased the Olympus 50-200mm f/2.8-3.5 SWD lens and this holds the lens attached to my E-30 body with battery grip. I wanted something simple to hold it and my 25mm f/2.8 Pancake lens and this works nearly flawlessly. I do a lot of sports shooting and don't need a huge bag to take a lot of gear with me (and if I do, I have the Computrekker AW for that).
Main pocket takes the E-30 body + battery grip + Opteka Grip Strap + 50-200mm f/2.8-3.5mm SWD with the hood on backwards. It is very well padded. I'm not sure if I would have liked the zipper to run the opposite way or not. As it is, it's not the quickest to open, but it does provide easier access to anything in the pouch inside the top of the lid. I'd call it a draw.
The front pocket will hold my 25mm f/2.8 pancake, FL-36R flash, a rainsleeve, and spare batteries with no problem. I found it can actually hold my old E-410 body with the pancake attached, so it is much larger than it first appears. I would prefer some padding on the pouch but for the money I paid, I can't entirely complain.
I would have liked a flap over the zipper to help with water resistance but I can't see this being a major problem. it holds up fine to mists and light showers, and in anything heavier than that, I'll be leaving anyways. The strap leaves something to be desired by not having a rotating clasp (to prevent twisting), nor a sliding shoulder pad, but this isn't meant for carrying heavy gear so it's not too much of a problem. I would have liked the AW cover but again, for the cost, I can live without it, or just have a garbage bag ready to rig up if worse comes to worst.
All in all I'm quite happy and would recommend it to anyone.
Fits D90 with 70-300mm zoom attached. July 31, 2010
Mark Vanderpool (SC)
Quality bag. A little more attention to detail would have made it great instead of just good. The front pocket is big enough for lenses, but not padded. The zippers are on top, with no covering flaps; I wouldn't trust it in the rain. The nylon strap is not terribly comfortable and has rough edges that can be hard on your shirt, especially "quick dry" synthetics. Finally, a lighter color, like a gray, would have made it less of a solar collector. It heats up fast in the sun.
Great, albeit conspicuous, camera bag July 18, 2010
Deborah Kirby (Washington, DC)
This bag fits my Nikon D90 with and attached zoom lense and room at the bottom for one other smaller lense. Plenty of room in the outside pocket for my flash or extra battery and a couple of filters.
Great bag for my larger DSLR camera June 14, 2010
HMMWV (santa clara, CA USA)
As with all Lowepro camera gear the quality is exceptional. I was first given the smaller version of this (the -1) on the amazon vine program - I used it for my dad's olympus E300 camera but it did not fit my olympus E3 with the battery extender underneath. I bought the -2 larger version for twenty bucks and was very impressed by the value. Underneath the pouch there is a velcro compartment with a rain poncho in case you get into wet weather. There is also a belt loop, handle on top, and a shoulder strap to carry the camera. It's fast to get into by loading from the top and can accommodate longer lenses than the -1 version of the bag.
As an example of the bag's quality design, there is a zipper inside that seals the inside pouch for media. Even the zipper is covered by a leather flap to protect the camera from scratches caused by the zipper. Ordinary cases would just use velcro or omit the leather flap to protect the camera resulting in scratched camera equipment.
Basically I was so pleased with the construction of the -1 that I tried that I bought the -2 for myself. The quality of the -2 size is the same as the size 1 version, and the -2 version has a larger pocket on the outside and inside to store accessories. Plus I can put my E3 with the dual battery attachment into the -2 size bag as well as a longer lens.
I've already found the bag handy to have on hand with my camera to catch an event quickly. Without it I would not have brought my camera with me. It's a very well built with padding all over and economical at this price, prefect for my olympus e3.
