I brought this bag to replace another one that I had for 3 years. I love that bag because it was my first one and it held everything I needed to carry. I looked for about 6 months for a replacement and brought a large camera bag that worked well but was way to big and heavy to carry around. I came across this one by accident while just browsing amazon. I read the specs and the one review and thought I give it a try because I could remove my camera from the top of the bag if I wanted to grab a quick shot. I now love this bag. It carries everything I need to carry, stronger than my last bag, the stitching is way better than my last bag and it feels stronger overall. I havent taken it out in the rain to test the water resistance yet but that time will come. It also has a rain cover. There are 2 zipper pockets on the front of the bag that you can barley carry anything in so I put small items in there like the bag rain cover, lens cleaning cloths etc. I think this is a great bag ,but ony time will tell. I highly recommend this bag.K&F you guys are 2 for 2 with me. I brought one of your tripods and will write a review on that after I use it for a few more times,but so far I like it.
