I found this bag to have many positive features. There is significant room for a laptop, lots of pockets and numerous straps for attaching items. I also liked the tripod carrying system. However, I have decided to return the items because the camera and equipment carrying section is inadequate to accommodate a dSLR of any size. After shoe horning in the camera, there is little room for lenses or other equipment. This poor design is the reason for the return. The bag is also much heavier than expected.
