 Good starter bag for my Canon T2i. September 6, 2010
James P. Wong (Downey, CA USA)
Soon after I bought my Canon T2i I picked this up. The bag flap in the stock picture is a little deceiving. The "flap" actually covers a front-zipper pocket that now holds my battery charger and AC cable (a snug fit, and not too tight with the items stuffed in there). The main compartment, where the camera is actually stored, is opened via zipper at the very top.
For a Canon T2i and kit lens, this fits just fine with room to fold the neck strap (if attached to the camera) on top as well as one additional lens (but it can't be a very long lens).
I moved the velcro-detachable compartments. Looking down into the bag, my T2i goes on the right side, separated by the velcro divider, with a small Canon 50mm (i.e. "fantastic plastic") lens on the left. There is a mesh compartment on the side, inside, where I store two backup batteries and a USB cable that came with the camera.
I traveled with this to Japan and also had a smaller pouch for more on-the-go travel. I used the attached all-weather cover once to protect the bag from light drizzle while I was out there - keep in mind, it's probably good for basic protection, but not a massive storm or snowfall :)
This is a decent bag for me, and I've not yet bought or rented other lenses. I'd say it's a good bag for the DSLR enthusiast who isn't going to bring more than one additional lens with them.
Great bag June 2, 2010

Overall, good bag that will hold 1 body, 2 lens, and some accessories.
I bought this bag to hold my gear for a trip down to Costa Rica. I was going during the rainy season, and I wanted something that offered some kind of water protection. This bag delivered. I carried my Nikon D80 with an 18-200mm zoom lens attached. Had room for a 60mm micro lens, plus extra room for a pair of mini binoculars in the main compartment. There was room to spare too, to hold a headlamp, and some energy snacks. I kept a spare battery, IR remote, extra cards, and a tabletop tripod in the pocket in front. On the side is a pocket, big enough to put another candy bar, or a map. On the other side is an attachment point where I put on a spare lens carrier I had from a Lowepro fannypack camera bag. I used that to hold a water bottle. It includes two dividers that attaches via velcro to create spaces for your stuff.
Like I said earlier, it was rainy season, and I used the rain cover in very heavy rain, and it protected everything perfectly. It also covers the bottom, so you can put it down on the wet ground too, and water won't soak in. It doesn't stretch too far up the back, so it won't keep things dry if you submerge the bag.
Downsides:
The flap in front is marginally useful. It didn't really seem to have a good use. It covers up the front pocket, so to access it you have to unclip, pull the flap back, then unzip the pocket. But at times, I did use it to hold a jacket. But since the rain cover goes over the flap, it can't both strap something down, and be covered. Also with a jacket, it kind of strains the pack, so it's a bit harder to access the main compartment.
It would have been better if there were some built in bungee cords to hold a tripod or jacket.
The straps are wide, but they aren't padded. I carried the full kit over several hours, and it wasn't too bad. But some padding would have been nice.
 Good, but ultimately too small even for amatuers- which makes it bad. April 2, 2010

I'm a beginner/amateur, and I have been using this bag since January. The pluses are the nylon water shield, and the reverse opening. The innards however are not friendly to anything more than a body w/ lens attached, one spare lens, and MAYBE a (small) flash...but anything more than that will be cumbersome because of the limited flexibility of the velcro panels.
I have the xsi with the kit lens/hood(attached), the 55-250 w/lens hood(reversed), and just purchased the 50mmm 1.8(no hood). The 50mm is what broke the camels back, as there is unfortunately no real mechanism to keep that small lens in place. I actually just wrote this review because i spent the last 2 hours trying to fit these 3 things in the bag- annoying, to say the least. Anything small and round like the 50mm will be an absolute pain to fit (or will be loose on top- no good), so i would suggest an external lens holder- which of course defeats the purpose of the bag. Forget about folded cables, its not happening. Another problem that comes up - if you end up needing a lens or so that is stuffed under another one, you will be taking out everything just to get to it, which can be hazardous if you are by yourself and there's limited flat space to put things down. This is with me having 2 extra dividers from another lowepro bag that a sales guy pulled from a model that was damaged, so mine is actually better set up than one that any of you will buy. Even right now, with compromise, the inner pocket pulls against my revered hood- extending the barrel if i take it out without using my other hand to force the bag wider. These is no zoom lock on this lens, so that's not something i want to keep happening. Be mindful.
So basically with only one extra lens and a small flash/charger, you will be fine. Anything more than that, honestly, get another bag that is wider by about 2 inches, with the same height. Smaller accessories like the batteries and such will fit in the side pockets just fine.
Oh, one last thing- if you have the battery grip, you wont be able to use this at all unless you like trying your luck. It will NOT stretch tall enough to fit, as you will not be able to close the bag. Thing is, that's next on my purchase list...sigh.
Best SLR bag out there January 5, 2010

I looked high and low for a bag for my Nikon D90. I wanted something that would protect my camera but I didn't want anything too big/bulky. This bag is the perfect match. It has pockets for memory cards and accessories. I even managed to fit my battery charger and cord in the stretchy neoprene accessory pocket on the right side. It fits my D90 with a 50mm prime lens and my 18-105 kit lens. I like to attach a battery grip to my D90 for long photo shoots but it barely fits in the bag with grip attached. Over all I am very happy with the bag.
 I used this with my Nikon D80 March 30, 2009

I bought the smaller 160AW, but it can't fit all my gear. So I bought the 170AW as well.
It is about 2" taller, otherwise it's exactly the same bag as the 160AW. I was able to fit the following items in the 170 AW.
- D80 Body with 18-55mm lens attached (I can also fit it with my 55-200 lens attached, but it's real snug)
- 55-200mm lens with hood removed and slide on the lens body reversed.
- SB 600 speedflah fully extended
- battery charger with electrical cord
- AV cable and remote
With that said, I still have enough room for another battery and a few more accesories.
With the 160AW bag, i could only fit the body with either lens attached and the speed flash.
To sum it up, I wanted a bag that wasn't too wide like the Nikon Bag, but rather, tall and thin so I could use the shoulder strap around my body. I can easily walk around with this attached to my body and it's out of my way as i can push it towards my back. It work's great and pulling out the camera with the reveresd flap makes it a breeze. the bag itself has more features, but you can read about that from the other reviews : )
PS, the Nikon D40, D70 and D90 are all simular in size, so I would think you would find the same results.
