I usually do not like the bags from camera manufacturers, but this 1G Pro is an exception: light, well made, very flexible. I like the wide interior, that thanks to the re-adjustable pads, allow to better configure the bag. As you can see in the picture, I have moved the pads to host the tall 1D with a tele-zoom fitted, and a 5D MkII (without battery grip) with a large 85/1.2. And there is space for another lens like the 24-105 or a 100 macro. And there are 4 pockets to hold accessories, batteries, cleaning tissue, cable, etc. The top cover has 2 everlasting metal hooks and a zip to protect the content from dust and rain. The handle on the top is very useful to move the bag. This bag is after-all compact in size, but this shape flat & wide allows an excellent use of the space. Thanks to Batman for review

What we have here is my Canon 1EG Gadget Bag. Like a lot of bags, it's advertised capacity is overrated. It seems pretty well made though. All the pockets still have some room left in them. Even with the 70-200 f/4L IS USM upright in the bag, I can still zip it shut with no problem. It came with a lot more dividers/partitions (and a shoulder strap) than you see here. My next task will be to redo those dividers so I can store the camera with a lens on it.

In the bag

A - Large Rocket Blower & a magnifying glass (lots of room left) B - Two Lenspens (lots of room left) C - Canon A710 IS camera & 6AA battery holder that goes w/ the 40D's grip (a little room left) D - Canon EOS 40D body + Canon Grip + Transporter strap E - Canon EF 70-200mm f/4 L IS USM + lens caps + hood (reversed) F - Canon EF 24-105mm f/4L IS USM + lens caps + hood (reversed) G - Canon 580EX Speedlite II H - Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II "nifty fifty" I - Canon charger + 3 extra BP-511A batteries + Energizer 4AA NiMH/NiCd charger & AC plug (some room left) J - Roxsen knock-off tripod collar for the EF 70-200 f/4L IS USM + USB camera cable (lots of room left) K - L - 12 AA batteries + 2 extra SanDisk CF cards + Dorcy 2AA LED flashlight (some room left) canon 40d
