There's a D50, 18-135, 75-300,SB-400, spare batteries, Canon DV, Garmin Nüvi, rocket blower and some other small stuff in it. For long walks I use the waistbelt so my shoulder doesn't get "overloaded". It works just fine with me. Regards, Bart (Belgium) Hi Scott,

Just read your book "The Digital Photograhy Book". Easiest read and best presented information (on the subject) I have come across. Regards, Des. Scott,

My standard content items are: Nikkors 70-180mm & 17-35mm f/2.8 & 35-70mm f/2.8, with the D3 attached to one of these lenses. A spare battery, a USB card reader and a Filter fit in the front pocket. There is still room left for a flash etc., but the bag would be too heavy for me to carry around. The bag works really fine, everything can be reached without having to put the bag off my shoulder. Even lens changes are easy with this bag. What I like best: Big enough for the "small everyday"gear - not bigger so I am not tempted to fit more inside. Convenient to carry around for up to an hour; for longer walks or hikes I'd prefer a backpack. Thank you for your tip ! Hi Scott, after reading this review I got the bag from B&H.

You mention a closeup filter in your bag, and I was wondering what vendor and magnification you use? I am in the market for one and would welcome your advice. Thanks in advance, Kevin Scott,

I've settled with a Lowepro Commercial AW after a costly mistake when I took a Lowepro 2 to a Wedding I was photographing. Basically I lifted bag to go from one position to another when the zip fasten door (I hadn't zipped shut) swung open and the only item to fall out was my f/2.8 17-55mm lens. A repair bill of £526 ($1070) I well and truly learned my lesson! Needless to say, the Commercial AW is serving me very well. Regards, Glyn Hi Scott,

It's amazing how important every piece of equipment in out bag is, not to mention the bag itself. I love it when a photographer geeks out over a new piece of equipment.
