Good bag - tight fit

By mahadragon2198592 Ranked #805 - Luggage May 2, 2008

I have a Nikon D40 and it barely fits with the kit lens and SB-400 external flash in the main compartment. If you have a zoom lens, like the 18-200mm VR, I guess you could squeeze it in next to the camera, but you won't be able to carry an external flash then. The pack fits well enough around my waist and bobs a bit when hiking or walking due to the fact that the attachment point of the waist strap is closer to the mid-section of the bag rather than the very top of the bag like it should be (see my review on Youtube for further explanation). I can also fit in my lens pen, UV filter, extra battery, and have space for a few more small accessories. This bag was no cheapie, but considering the dearth of hip pack camera bag selection I had to take the plunge. I have the small version of this bag, there is a larger size. If I had a Nikon D80 or D50 I would definitely get the medium size version of this bag which has slightly larger dimensions.
