the only problem I have is accessibility, It's hard to get the thing you put on the bottom of the bag.
But that is the problem every bag will have.

I diagree with the last statement. You either need to pack better or get a different bag.

I love mine but it's a killer on my shoulder and back. Maybe it's because I over load it I'm thinking of switching to a slig bag.

I guage a bags useability by how it works in the field. It needs to be able to do more than just hold the equipment. I need to be able to have direct access to everything so I can switch lenses, safely and quickly, without having to put the bag down.

This is why i am getting this bag -with my lowepro backpack I am always putting my backpack down to switch lenses ... annoying.

I feel when I am walking around casually that wearing the 7MDH is a little less awkward for me to carry than my Fastpack.

I won't be putting nearly that much in there!
Thanks for the picture!

I had a Lowepro Fastpack before and replaced it with the MagPro2 for just that reason. I don't always need a bag that large or that rugged/well padded so I also bought the 6 MDH when 3 lenses is all I need on a given day. With the MG2 I can pack 5 lenses and a flash, except for the 300 which won't fit unless I rearange the dividers inside which sounds like work, to me

I haven't used the MG2, since I've received the 6MDH. 3 lenses on a specific shoot is usually all I need.

I've decide to keep using the 7 Mil. I love it! Getting in and out of it is so easy and quick! I wish mine has the "Velcro Silencer" feature

Going to carry less gear when I need it. If I need everything I'll use my Mini Trekker.
