About this bag
A premium backpack for the serious adventure bound photographer or sports photojournalist, the Vertex series is made for the outdoors. Rugged, construction with water-resistant zippers and a seam-sealed AW cover protects gear while providing photographers with a bag that conforms to a variety of body types with an adjustable harness system. Combine that with pockets and features that are made for today's digital photographer and the Vertex series delivers adjustable comfort with serious camera protection.
What fits inside
1-2 Pro digital SLRs, large 35mm or medium format system, 6-8 lenses (up to a 400mm f/2.8), tripod o
The Notebook-Compartment is - unlike many other bags - not between the back and the heavy cameras but on-top of the cameras. This is even more useful if the bag is stored on its back in a car trunk, so you can access the stuff by just opening it, where otherwise all the weight would be on the notebook during driving around.
What works
lots of space
Room for improvement

Lowepro Vertex 300AW and my travel gear for an upcoming trip to Alaska.
17-40mm f/4L this will be the normal lens for the D60 - however I may just leave this home in the interest of saving weight and bag space since the 12-24mm f/4 Tokina works just fine on the D60 and the 24mm side equals 38mm which is close enough to a normal angle to live with. This load is really getting heavy! I am planning to sell the 17-40L anyway.
My notebook will also be in this case along with memory cards, batteries for cameras and flash, a few filters and card reader, 2 chargers and cord for notebook.
As I said, this is my travel bag. I will carry an empty Think Tank holster case and a small Tamrac shoulder bag in my suitcase and will use these for shooting.
Thanks to RPCrowe for review.
