Summary This bag has been a super purchase, especially for the price. Since buying it, I've upgraded most of my equipment. It's now carrying a Canon 1d, 75-300, 20-35, 28-135, 50mm lenses, extra battery, 550ex flash, plus filters, extra cf cards, remote, and manuals. It's a tight fit but works. I've had it all over the US, usually to airshows or museums. It's heavy and the shoulder straps are marginal but I can't complain for what I gave for the bag. The side pouches are very useful but you can't have everything. It's a great starter/intermediate bag. I'm planning on upgrading, would buy another Canon if they made a larger size.
Strengths For the price it can't be beat. Carrys a ton of gear. Sturdy material.
Weaknesses Pockets on side aren't very useful. Straps aren't comfortable with a lot of gear in bag.
Summary It's a great bag. Worths every penny if you have lots of camera equipments to carry. Right now, I'm carrying my Elan 7e, 300D, 70-200mm f/4L, 17-40 f/4L, 28-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS, 50mm f/1.8, 420EX flash, 3 hood rings, some filters, films, lens cleaning kit, notebook, compact flash reader and extra batteries. All these make for one heavy bag, but it handles it just fine!
Strengths Lots of room!
Nice looking
Comfortable
Very reasonably price
Weaknesses The handle seems a bit fragile to me. I have seen backpack handles like this breaking before.
Summary Bought this bag for Canon Digital Rebel and 3 lens + accessories. Fits all of them plus some extra room for additional future lens purchase. Highly recommend it after trying a LowePro MicroTrekker 100/200 w/c was too small for my purposes. The LP MiniTrekker AW or Classic is about this size but this is only 50 bucks with almos the same features.
Strengths *Price
*Good size, not too small or big.
*Quality is fairly decent. Not at LowePro level though.
*Looks good although Canon name may be a thief magnet.
*Lots of storage pockets plus waterproof material.
Weaknesses *Can be higher quality or the same as LowePro bags but that will drive the price up.
