Crumpler Full Photo Backpacks are designed to offer photographers speed, agility and a convenient place to put their lunch. They have security zipping and back frame and come in a range of colours because, you know, some people just can't wear red. features 1000d Chicken Tex Supreme hyper performance accessory fabric with waterproof Ripstop Lining; fully removable protective photo pouch with super mesh including adjustable photo dividers and an accessory pouch; padded removable laptop sleeve with Weasel Proof opening; Shirt Lifter front organiser; two easy access padded wing pocktes for compact camera, MP3 player, etc. Lined with super soft Slippertex microfibre for extra protection; super comfy Dr. Bondenschatz back hugger which makes light work of heavy lads; super strong shoulder straps with two loops for pouch attachment and an adjustable and removable sliding chest strap.

Decent bag, but one if it's strenghts (the fact that the zip to the main compartment is behind the straps for security), is also it's main weakness as it's not easy to get to gear. Also, space inside is smaller than it appears from the outside. I also have a 350D, Sigma 10-20, and Canon 17-85, and none of these will fit in comfortably.

What works

Solid build, removable inside compartment (very handy if the person at an airport check in desk tells you your bag is too big!), mesh covering to stop your gear falling out, and laptop space. Space in front to hold a small tripod or monopod across the face, but don't try taking anything too big

Room for improvement

Not easy to access gear at all, and the space is deceptively small.
