I find that getting a bag one laptop size larger than the laptop you own is the way to go. Because once you start filling the bag, stresses cause the laptop section to pull around for a less comfortable fit.

Bag gets really bulky; makes me want to leave the grip behind. Dave

tigerotor77w Goldmember More info | Mar 26, 2010 11:10 | #67 chadci wrote in post #9873911 I feel pretty confident that my SX20, Laptop, P&S, Flip video, SansaView, batteries ( in a wallet), charger ( both camera AND laptop), card wallet and a few other goodies should fit comfortably. I'm sure it's been posted, but, I assume the strap is long enough to go around my neck and over my shoulders? My current messenger bag has to be carried like that. If I just carry it on my shoulder it slides right off... You'll have a TON of space if you want to carry a laptop and three small cameras (even with their chargers). This bag --- even the small --- is larger than it looks. You can check out my review of the small on my "Gear" link; there are more pics in my flickr as well.

And yeah, the strap is long enough to be "slung" over the shoulder. Great! It'll be used on vacation in May so it'll be nice to have the extra room to throw in a clean shirt and things like that... I'm a heavy sweater so I go through a lot of shirts in the summer... especially since we'll be in the caribbean

tigerotor77w Goldmember More info | Feb 13, 2011 11:04 | #72 You won't be able to stand any body with any of the 70-200s mounted upright (i.e. parallel to your torso when you are standing) -- however, if your only two lenses are going to be the 70-200 and 16-35, they will be able to fit if the 16-35 is mounted.

Of course, with Notebook & APS-C DSLR (my 50D body measures 12cm / 4.7" from tripod mount to flash shoe) it starts to bulk up from bottom to top. But at this point, it's not better or worse than any other camera bag designed to hold that amount of gear... . Overall, a great bag, particularly at that price point! The insert itself leaves a lot to be desired, but anyone handy with a hotglue gun etc. would be able to add some velcro where it's really needed. I will use dividers from other bags and attach them higher up in the insert. A couple of shots to go with the above text. I didn't feel the need to write up my own review seeing as tiger & DEMO have already done a couple of excellent reviews on a now "classic" bag... : - D *** Click on any photo for higher-res images *** The top-access idea is great *and* actually works!  Fully packed. Yes, it's a book - same size as my Notebook - which was in use...  An "approximation" of the variation in thickness (see figures for accurate comparison)  There's a 70-200 f/4 under the 50D...  That's the stuff in the insert. Smaller gear is stowed in other areas of the bag.  The silly application of velcro and all but useless dividers... The yellow one is from my Kata and is representative of std dividers  An attempt to capture the terracotta-rusty-like "Burnt Orange"...  Plan B - when it has to be black...  Traveller
