Very solid and well padded bag that can pack a decent amount of gear (clocks in at about 12 kilos as shown). Even fully loaded, the fit is comfortable as the shoulder straps are thickly padded. The waist belt while not padded is still usable to reduce strain to the spine while carrying the bag for longer distances. Crumpler paid lots of attention to detail (as usual), such as the easily removable waist belt, the flexible Velcro dividers and the removable shell holding the camera equipment (turning the backpack into a regular day pack). My only gripe are the two outer pockets. When the bag is well loaded, they are all but useless as I cannot get my hand inside anymore. This is not a bag that I would choose to shoot out of while on the street - I would prefer a smaller shoulder bag for that. But it works very well to transport gear and a mid sized Laptop from A to B and allows you to shoot out of the bag from a set location.
