I was looking for a shoulder bag which could I could easily access my camera and mounted lens swiftly and that was high enough to be able to contain my D300 with my 70-300mm (or future 50-150mm f/2.8) lens mounted and had spare room for 2-3 lenses and a flash. The Stealth Reporter D200AW fit my requirements exactly. I'm not a big fan of the Lowepro shoulder straps so I have substituted it with a ThinkTank photo shoulder strap you can see in this photo. It's a well built bag, very sturdy with well thought out compartments and dividers - I like the fact that the side dividers sit low in the bag - keeps them separate but easy to reach in and pull out for quick lens changes. For me, the D200AW is the perfect size shoulder bag for a 4-6 hour day. To carry more equipment for longer days I would likely use a backpack instead as the amount of equipment you can put in there can increase weight and shoulder strain

What works

Great compartments and divider size. Easy access. Room for growth with Sidelock system. Well built.

Room for improvement

Top zipper (in the middle of the top cover) really is only big enough for a small SLR and lens to pull through. Even then, the gap is fairly narrow and it's just faster to unbuckle the top flap to get fast access to shoot.
