Do I want this new buckle system or stick with a conventional style?

You ordered from them, I ordered from adorama... I wonder which is newer. I gotta assume the funky buckle is newer. But maybe people complained about it? It looks like the buckle you have is lower profile. I'm over it... it's such a fantastic bag, I don't care what the buckle is. It fits everything I need VERY well. That is a 7D with RRS L Plate with E1 handgrip, 15-85 (almost always on the 7D), 70-300 f4-5.6 IS, 10-22, 28 f1.8, a bunch of cards and cords and remotes, and a speedlight in the outer pocket. Perfect size, this is the bag I have been waiting for. I'm not a Crumpler fan, they look too Walt Disney to me.

I have a UD60 that I bought in Feb 2008 and it has a regular buckle, but the UD's that I have purchased since then all have the style like Ben posted. connecticut wedding photographer

That is a 7D with RRS L Plate with E1 handgrip. you might want to add a picture of that (and I need to with my gripped D700 as well) so more people can see that these DO work with gripped bodies.

I don't have a grip, I have an L plate from RRS and an E1 handgrip, but even if I did have a battery grip it would fit beauty.

DO NOT BUY THIS BAG IF YOU WANT TO SKI WITH IT!!!! It works, but not as well as a newer option I found. Google the mountainsmith descent. REI has it here in the states. I just got one with my dividend and annual 20% off coupon and it's just slightly smaller (but still fits the same load as I've shown here) and has DEDICATED straps.  it cost me $30 after my discounts, it's $80 new. It's ONLY a chest bag, but it's a better one. Thanks very much! I'll go take a look. Dave
