Good build, but not practical.
I loved this bag. But I found some really annoying things that might concern others too.1) So I have a Nikon D90. A mid-range camera that is bigger than the newer mirrorless cameras. The lenses I usually carry along are. 50mm f1.4 , a 70-300 kit lens and a 16-24 wide angle lens. The camera compartment cannot fit more than 1 lens along with the camera itself. It forms 3 compartments with the velcro dividers, but one will be much smaller after fitting a lens and a camera.2) The top compartment can fit in another one or two lenses but they might bob around because it has no velcro dividers or even a way to attach it. I wish they had at least provided that option. I can choose not to attach it and use it to store other items.3) The sling is quite awkward. The camera compartment zipper opens only from the left. Since I am a right handed person, I would have liked it if the camera compartment opened all the way around like a clamshell. Sure, I can get use to putting my camera and taking it out from the left side, but I would prefer it to be on the right side instead.4) The straps on this bag are not very comfortable. The bag will keep sliding below due to the weight of the camera. The only way to keep it in place is by a thinner strap that comes in from another side. I found it very weird.The fit and finish of this bag is outstanding. The way its been made is awesome, I am a big fan of lowepro bags. I would instantly pick this bag up if the above mentioned problems are addressed. I picked it up, but reluctantly I had to let go of it. Returned it. I will be picking up the backpacks AW 350 or 450 from Lowepro.

Compact bag
Holds one dslr (Canon 7d), with 24-105mm L lens attached.

Cumbersome
It is really a cumbersome kind of a bag and not very user friendly.

Great for urban camera walks
PROsI love it for short walks. I has initially afraid about how comfortable the sling hanging would be, but it is really good. It has enough space for a camera and a lense plus two spare lenses or one big lense.The upper part has enough soace for cables, flashes, filters or additional lenses.There is a side net pocket for a bottle of water; very usefu lto keep it safely separate to my gear.CONsYou cannot fit a laptop, therefore it is not useful for longer trips (airplanes, trains, etc). Hence I use it only for urban walks or as a second travel backpack

Better Than I Expected
Bought this to replace several other hip bags that I’ve been using for city breaks and holidays and I was pleasantly surprised at how easy the sling system was to use.Plenty of space for a Nikon D7100 and 2 lenses and bags of space in the top for a flash and everything else you’d want to take with you on a day trip.Build quality was better than I had expected and the only reason I haven’t given it the full 5 star rating is that I didn’t find it as comfortable over the shoulder as I would have liked. Saying that it’s far more comfortable than all my other bags!

Camera compartment dividers not adjustable
I returned this as 'unfit for purpose'. I am baffled as to why the velcro strips on the walls of the main camera case are only half-an-inch wide. This dictates that the position of the two primary dividers cannot be moved laterally and the case cannot be used for a mounted lens that is fatter than the space between the velcro strips. Every other one of the four Lowepro cases I own has 'clingy' material lining the camera compartment which means that I can position the dividers wherever I need to. Is this a case of penny-pinching causing designers to lose sight of their objectives?

Good bag
First of all - I did not have Idea how large this item is. Honestly I expected it to be larger, but it does the job. It's comfortable and very useful when it comes to photos on the go. It has three compartments:- Top compartment -I use it for carrying accessories like iPad Air 2 (internal socket dedicated for tablet), batteries, cleaning stuff, filters case and remotes.- Front compartment -Long and tight - good for cables, phone, pens, credit cards etc.- Main compartment -Camera compartment with dividers, useful enough. I've managed to fit there my Canon 750d with grip and ef-s 10-18 lens + spare lenses:canon ef-s18 - 135, samyang 8mm, and nifty fifty. I managed to find extra little space for hoods too.Side pocket - good for bottle or little tripod.Fron tripod mount - Don't expect much, it works, but I wouldn't fix anything large with it.Good item for price.

Great design and easy to use
Bought this to downsize my kit for a recent holiday. The sling set up was initially difficult to get used to but was extremely easy to let you access gear and was compact for everyday use. The compromise was the available space, but that was part of the drive to downsize and reduce the equipment carried!
