Hi all,

After see reviews of many other bags, I went to my local photo store and that's whan I cam upon this one. Very few reviews of this anywhere, so I thought I would offer my impressions.

This will be used for travel to Europe. I'm keeping my 70-200 and 480ex at home for that, so the requirement is to fit
Canon 7D with 24-105 attached.
Tokina 12-24
Canon 50mm f1.8
A few filters, cards, etc.

"Nice to have" was to fit my iPad which this does, but crammed a bit so I will only use that for the plane and train rides to-from.

Tamrac also calls this by model number 5723. I paid about $80 for it.

In general this appears to be what I'm looking for.

First a pic of the bag itself - fairly slim and deep, seems to be built well.

...page 2. I removed one of the dividers, will put the camera on the left side with a lens attached, and the other two lenses on the right. Not sure if I will use this as my final config but the lens w/hood seems to come out fairly easily

The ipad fits in a small pocket in the back. Here is a pic of the equipment (sans accessories) which will fit inside.

On a related note, I discovered that the lens hood which fits on my 24-105 also fits the Tokina 12-24! That makes for slimmer packing as I only need the hood for my "on the camera" lens at any one time.

Let me know if you have any questions.
