Maybe. Like I said I don't know what would do but if the the stupid companies did better reviews.

Plenty of people on here have bought, tried, and resold or returned. I'm no different as I stated I wouldn't know if I'd keep them or not. I have a bag that is better for me than the 6MDH but at the same time yesterday I wouldn't have minded a bag to hold my gear without a 70-200 attached thus a proven use for the 6MDH. Or I could have used the extra space for other stuff. Same goes with the 8MDH. Since I have the money it may replace the 7MDH if the height is that big of deal but if not, why would I keep it?

Yes, the initial idea is to do reviews but at the same time, if I like it I'm not going to get rid of it thus, why I made those statements that I don't what the future holds. Come on Don, reading is fundamental.

Well, awesome, got my 7MDH today.

Some initial comments, I'm glad I got this, over the 5, because the 7 seems smaller than I thought it would be, and what it looked like in pictures. It is thick, which is probably what will bug me the most.

Right now, it's just loaded with a 24-105L, 580EXII, couple filters, and some cleaning accessories, and that is it. It is already starting to get heavy. The 50D comes in tomorrow...

I imagine this thing will be pretty heavy with a 70-200F4 or F2.8, that is for sure. The nice thing is, I think I'd be able to leave the lens hood on correctly for the 24-105, so it is ready to use, probably not so with the 70-200 though.

My overall impressions of the bag are good. It is very high quality, and I like the colors. The padding seems good, if not a little over kill, but when you are talking about hundreds of dollars, do you really want less padding? I also got the Industry Disgrace, and it looks awesome, can't wait to attach it to the camera.

How funny...finding the perfect Crumpler is like Goldilocks and the three bears, one is too small, one is too big, one is just right...but it depends on what you want to carry at any given time. We started with a 5MHD, picked up a 7MDH, and then picked up a 6MHD. We love them all, though.

Hahaha!! Same here.... First a LowePro TopLoader 75, then Crumpler 4 mil, then an UD35, then a Crumpler Cashmere Blazer.

Love them all, and use them from time to time. Depending on situation.

Jeez Don, get it together. We are only trying to be like everyone else here. Why take us to task because you have issues with our issues.
