Dual Pocket Drawstring Backpack BagThis product is great for my walking commute to work every day. Holds all kinds of stuff. Would like the straps to adjust, but for the price this works.

Was not worth the $10 I paid for it. The bottom of the bag broke within a week. Do not buy.

Insulated Drawstring Backpack Cooler Bag, Black

Insulated Drawstring Backpack Cooler Bag, BlackBought this bag for taking a trip to Florida for Spring Break. It kept all my drinks cold the entire time. Loved it.

The insulation is minimal and the extra pocket outside isn't very beneficial, the bag is durable but probably won't keeps things cold for too long.

I like this bag better than MUCH more expensive backpacks I have. It stays on your shoulders and it's lightweight. The insulation is a plus. Recommended.

I haven't had the opportunity to utilize it other than taking cold items to work but I have found it to be easy to use, put things into, carry. Am very glad I purchased it. It will be interesting to see how well it holds the cold come warmer weather

This bag is huge and can be used for anything. I wanted to use it for baby bottles, but it was too big and bulky for the diaper bag. It's perfect for keeping other foods insulated though for picnics, or lunches. It is what it is. It's not pretty, but it's practical and durable.

Safe Passage Sling Pack / Only Pack Only

Safe Passage Sling Pack / Only Pack Only, Digital CamoI have been purchasing Orvis Gear since 1981. This sling pack caught me off guard in how amazingly usable it is. It holds what a small vest might hold but easily moves front or back as needed. I love the idea of having a small pack on your back not hanging heavy as a vest does after hours. I supplemented this Sling Pack (although I also store this in my Sling Pack) with a Loon Lanyard to hold tippet, and a few tools and find that all but the most complicated fishing trips that I can pack all I need in this Sling Pack. This is not a pack for someone who wants to pack 20 pounds of gear, but for someone willing to carry two fly boxes, some tools, and other essentials, this Sling is for you. The material is very high quality and the zippers and straps are excellent. I would give this a 10+ and it even suprised my critical nature. Worth the money!

Bought as a gift for an avid fly fisher and he uses it for fishing as well as multiple other small bag needs. The bag holds a ton of stuff and it quite convenient. Works great as a camera bag.

Manhattan Portage Small DJ Bag

Manhattan Portage DJ Bag, Purple, SmallI owned this bag when I lived in New York and used it every day for about 3 years until one side of the shoulder strap began separating from the bag. It was the perfect size and dimension for commuting to work with a book, magazine, small dig. camera, water bottle and extra sweater or scarf. It fit very well against my back, looked great with everything I wore (I had the olive green color) and the strap was pretty comfortable if not weighed down with overly heavy stuff. One downside--beside the strap eventually coming detached--is that there are very few pockets. I tend to prefer a clean, simple, minimal look and this bag certainly delivers on that front. But if you want to access your keys, wallet, phone, ipod, chapstick, mints, loose change, etc. quickly and easily without rummaging around in the one large zipper pocket, look elsewhere.

I recently bought this bag again (this time in black) almost 8 years after my first one to use as a bike-commuting bag here in L.A. The new version seems exactly the same except the plastic closure system has been changed. I definitely liked the old clasp much better as it was easier to quickly open and close w/ one hand without looking at it. The new one is very picky--it just feels weird and counter-intuitive--and I have to use both hands to snap it shut (I guess I just need practice.)

Overall, it's a very sturdy, minimal-looking, quality bag that is not so big that it makes you look like an over-loaded bike messenger or so small that it makes you look like you're wearing a purse or a tourist's passport satchel. I don't recommend using it to cart around a laptop (a netbook or ipad, maybe) but it will definitely fit all your daily urban essentials and look good doing it.

I found this bag in my wifes closet while looking for a bag for my laptop. This bag turned out to be perfect! It fits my alienware m11x (11 inch laptop), full sized mouse, power supply, 500gb external HDD, and my full sized headphones (break into 3 parts)

I can keep a small notebook or magazine in the back pouch behind the laptop.

This is my second Manhattan Portage bag. I wanted to downsize from my gigantic 17" laptop bag, so I ordered this small DJ bag. My old bag was of exceptional quality, I've used it on my commute everyday for the last 4 years and it still looks new. My new bag appears to be just as well made. The small DJ bag is only about 1/3 the size of my old bag, so I have to limit what I'm carrying, of course that was the point of buying a smaller bag. It is still large enough for a lunch, a book, my 10" tablet, and an umbrella, and I still have some room left over. Due to the high quality of the materials and construction, I expect this bag will last at least as long as my old one.

I bought this bag for my husband to use for carrying comic books. It's the perfect size for 25-30 bagged and boarded comics or a few "Essentials" collections. He used at at NYCC with great success as he carried his sketchbook, some comics to be signed, some swag, plus his wallet & phone. It is sturdy and doesn't have excess pockets to cause lumps or bending.

Want Manhattan Portage Small DJ Bag Discount?

I looked a long time to find this. I don't like most current bags which have sometimes ten and more padded pockets that I'll never use. The pockets add material, and that means weight. All I need is a large main compartment for lunch and a thin compartment for papers. This bag has one main, one thin zippered, and one thin unzippered compartment. The bag is light, practical, and it looks stylish too.

For people who like and use many little zippered and velcroed pockets this bag will be on the minimalist side, but that's exactly what I enjoy about it.

Stephen Joseph Girls 2-6x Quilted Backpack Girl Monkey

Stephen Joseph Girls 2-6x Quilted Backpack Girl Monkey,Hot Pink/Cloud Blue,One SizeI bought this for my daughters first day of school. It is very well made and is just the right size for a kindergartener. I took it and had her name stitched into it so now it's perfect!

I like the products because the material is quilted and seems pretty durable. It was a gift so I will not know much more about the quality of it, but it seemed like a great little bag when we received it.

This was a gift for my granddaughter. It was a little bit bigger than I expected but she will grow into it. Seems to be good quality.

Read Best Reviews of Stephen Joseph Girls 2-6x Quilted Backpack Girl Monkey Here

Gift for my twin toddlers. They LOVE wearing their backpacks.

The outside is cotton quilted material but the inside does have some type of plastic (almost like a water resistant) coating and it's not cotton. Not a big deal for me but if you're looking for 100% cotton, this is not it.

I also find that the strings to close the backpack are too long. If I cut them and tie it I'm afraid it might fray. The quality is good but I can already see some of the thread coming apart so the quality really could be better. These could be used for preschool for simple items like clothes, diapers, change of shoes but I would not use this for a Kindergarten backpack. Great for kids who just like to wear backpacks out and about or for short trips.

Cuteness factor is over the top and my girls love them.

Want Stephen Joseph Girls 2-6x Quilted Backpack Girl Monkey Discount?

I was looking for a small bag for my 14 month old daughter that I could leave with her when I dropped her off at church childcare or whenever she was in someone else's care. This bag is SUPER cute and the colors are very vibrant. It seems to have plenty of room inside for what I wanted it for (a couple diapers, wipes, change of clothes, food/drink, etc.). The reviews I read of other designs before I bought this one did mention the poor quality of the bags but I took my chances anyway. Unfortunately, this particular one I received had a small area on the top stitching where the filling underneath was showing and the thread was frayed and unraveling. I'm returning it and taking my chances on the replacement because I really do want this bag to work! Hoping the next one is in good shape so I can get her name embroidered on it. I'll update my review when I get the new bag.

The dakine section is perfect for day trip or a week long surf trip when you travel light to Bali or Fiji. 40 L is the right volume you need.

BUILT 13 Inch Apple MacBook Air Neoprene Sleeve, Rain Drop

BUILT 13 Inch Apple MacBook Air Neoprene Sleeve, Rain DropThis is a slim cover that fits the 13" MacBook Air very well, maintaining its small size. Be advised, there is no closure mechanism. However, there is enough friction that it's never been a problem and I usually have it in a bag, so there's no room for it to slide out unexpectedly. Overall, I'm very happy with this product.

I seriously love the convenience of this case and the top-loading entry for my MacBook Air, but the design is something I'm not a huge fan of... it's a bit "funky" for my taste. Plain black, or something more subdued, would have been preferable. 1 star was knocked off for the my opinion on the design. Functionality: 5 out of 5 stars!

Liberty Bags Shoulder Strap Barrel Duffel Bag. 8805

Liberty Bags Shoulder Strap Barrel Duffel, Light Tan, One Size. 8805the perfect size bag i was looking for. not too big or too small. i often go on 3-4 day trips out of town and i like to pack really light with just about everything i need in the bag, mainly change of clothes and cosmetics. i don't like to pack heavily or over pack like many girls do. a back pack, purse, and this duffel bag is all that i need for a few days of traveling. this bag measures 18"x10"x10".

Decided on buying this bag, because my other gym bag was just TOO big. This bag is perfect to carry a set of clothes and a water bottle to the gym; I was sweetly surprised to find that it's well made and sturdy, because of the price I wasn't sure. I bought the pink bag, and it looks just like the picture.

Buy Liberty Bags Shoulder Strap Barrel Duffel Bag. 8805 Now

I received the bag a couple of days ago and am mostly pleased with it--it's nice and sturdy, seems to be well made and doesn't look cheap (though at its price, it's a bargain!) It's larger than I imagined which can be a good thing for extra storage. A slight complaint I have is with the color of the bag: I ordered it in red, which looks different from the picture. All in all, a handy bag to have, just prepare to be surprised by color!

The light blue pictured is really a bright blue, I guess I should have read the description that it was called turquoise.

Holds a lot, but is still small. enough room for my sneakers a change of clothes, towel and water bottle.

It is cylinder in shape so the sides are circular with a diameter of 10 inches ( roughly the size of a basketball)

The length is 18 inches.

There is also this small little pocket on the side great for your wallet.

The long strap is removable and adjustable.

Great for the price, but one must be accomodating for the color.

I needed a gym bag in any color other than black! (laughing) This bag is definitely one for the budget. It is rather thinly constructed, but it suits me perfectly. I only wanted something to hold clothes ripe with sweat & dirt from working out.

Altego Coated Canvas Cyan 17-Inch Laptop Backpack - Black (36300)

Altego Coated Canvas Cyan 17-Inch Laptop Backpack - BlackI just received this bag today and was instantly pleased. Please forgive any redundant information with regard to previous reviews but I'm sure anything I duplicate bears repeating.

Out of the box I noticed that one of my concerns was quelled: the color. Photo flashes make this bag look much lighter and shiny than it actually is. The coated canvas has more of a slick, dark matte texture than is evident in pictures. That said the cyan is just as vibrant as in the images.

The stitching on this bag is clean and looks as though it's very tough. There are no evident thread pulls.

The material itself has a very strong feel. It alone gives the impression of lasting durability as do the reinforcements along the bottom, without being bulky.

Something that's been a disappointment in other bags that I've bought and subsequently returned are zippers. Not a concern with this bag. They're solid and have a smooth but sturdy pull. The dual-zip function for space expansion is pretty brilliant and doesn't make the bag look messy at all.

The pocket and handle on the front of the bag are very functional. It can easily hold your average sized smartphone, keys or whatever else you might want to have immediately on-hand. There's also a neat little pocket for the zipper pull on the front pouch so that it doesn't dangle -a nice little accent.

The straps are sufficiently padded and the width makes them very comfortable with a full load. The blue strap accents and clip are visually pleasing and don't feel like an afterthought. The plastic they are made of is thick and durable. At the top of the straps, where they meet with the unit itself is a handle cut-out which again feels durable and functional and not like a visual afterthought.

The top flap is latched with a cool little twist buckle that closes itself. So many of these have broken off of other bags but I don't think this one will go any time soon. The flap expands by unsnapping it from the top of the bag. Over all the flap seems like a good bit of extra protection.

Moving inside the bag; there's a surprising amount of room. The bag unzips to about 3/4 the height of the bag so you won't have to really fish around in it for anything that might be at the bottom. You wouldn't really need to have loose things kicking around in there anyway with 2 pen pockets, a single pocket the width of the 2 pen pockets, 4 mesh pockets (large enough to hold a standard sized wireless mouse snugly but not restrictively or your adapter and power cords) and also a padded pocket that will fit a tablet comfortably. There's also a large pocket on the front side that runs the width of the bag. Being an artist I tend to carry a lot of little things and being a neat freak I'm not worried that I'll be trying to keep everything organized in separate containers. There's ample room in here to organize whatever you might be carrying.

Lastly there's the Laptop enclosure. I am more than pleased with this. I have a 15.6'' laptop that fits with room to spare however it's not loose by any means. The padding is thick and fabric plush creating a secure hold. The most brilliant part is something laptop bag makers tend to overlook. My laptop has gotten dinged more than once simply by setting my bag down because there's no padding on the part of the bag that tends to take the most abuse: the bottom. Altego, smartly, padded the bottom of the bag and added an extra, removable strip of padding attached by velcro. That feature just shows the thought put in to this product.

So in the end it's the little things that count with this bag in addition to the solid stature overall. Extra padding in the laptop area, expansion without visual bulk, zipper pull hideaway, strap handle and secure but spacious pockets make this bag worth the lengthy review. Altego went out of their way to bring form and function together.

All of that said, this backpack just looks the part. Slick hipster stepping out of a trendy coffee shop or sci-fi geek stepping out of a giant mech, this bag's going to carry what you need, protect your tech and look badass at the same time.

If your 17" doesn't fit:

I bought this for my HP Pavilion g7 which is a 17.3 inch screen. I tried to place the laptop in the compartment but it did not fit. I was distraught and started looking around for a different backpack that looked this good at this price. Finding nothing I started examining the backpack to see if I could alter it to somehow fit my laptop. I found a 1/2" thick foam pad on the bottom which was velcroed on. After removing it my laptop fit perfectly.

Material Quality:

It has a coated (almost painted) canvas exterior with a nice standard nylon-like interior. It resembles the picture accurately and looks very cool by both standards of myself and the spouse. The twisting lock is quite nifty and is made of metal. What it does not demonstrate in the picture is you need to press down on the lock with the hole in order to push the spring lever down. In other words to open you need to turn the latch 90 degrees. To close it you push the top flap into place firmly and the spring locks it for you. It handled the light snow/rain that fell on it getting from the house to the car which shows promising water resistance.

In comparison:

I have used a messenger bag, a larger Oakley bag and countless jansports and other brands. This backpack is thin enough to be more messenger bag style but could fit a few (2-3 at around 300 pages each) textbooks alongside the laptop. The quality of materials (seams and sewing included) is worthy if not exceeding the price. I don't see anything that I don't like about this backpack. If I do I will update my review and take some stars off.

UPDATE: This backpack was stolen about a week later from a church I was in. So looks like the only downside of the backpack is it is tempting enough to steal.

This backpack, you guys. This backpack.

It is the greatest backpack that I have ever owned.

And that's why this is a tragic review, people. I bought this backpack to try with my Asus G75VW, and it's important to note that while the case will hold a 17" Macbook, it cannot contain the beast that is the G75VW. That computer's got a badunkadunk.

So I returned it, and I may have actually cried a little bit. The colors are great -the laptop compartment has padding to adjust it -it feels really sturdy -the front flap clip will lock itself when you close the flap -the thing's waterproof -it has thoughtful pockets, and the chest-strap (going between the two shoulder straps) slide-adjusts to the proper place. I have a small frame (small enough that carrying around my laptop looks a bit like Bilbo Baggins trying to wield a claymore), so little details like this aren't just "hey, that's nice" things, but big differences.

And the thing just *looks* cool.

This is a good-sized, well-thought-out backpack. It'll work if you're really small, it'll work if you're not small, and it'll work with pretty much any laptop smaller than a G75VW. I'll be keeping an eye on it for if I get another laptop someday, far in the future.

And until then, I will dream.

Quite happy when I got the bag and the color looks really awesome. A little disappointed with the mould found on some parts of the bag though it was packed in a plastic wrap. They were quite easily cleaned off with a damp cloth but who knows if it'll grow again when left in a cool and moist place.....

Well, the laptop compartment is quite nicely padded but it seems that the bag does not come with too many compartments to sort out my stuff from the previous Targus bag that I was using. I had read some of the reviews saying the same thing but I thought those were just words from people who used to have a larger bag. Although all my stuff can be put inside the bag, there're just all lumped into the middle compartment.

This bag is good for travelling and perhaps people who carry simple stuff to work. Overall feel of the bag is quite nicely made although the shoulder straps could have been thicker.

Mountain Hardwear Direttissima 46

Mountain Hardwear Direttissima 46 Backpack Black MediumLove this bag. Very durable, super supportive, love all the gear loops, and the hidden straps come in handy for securing overloads (or to compress smaller loads). If you have the right packable gear, this bag can easily be used for a three or four day treck. Also stays dry inside, when snow hiking if I can't get to a tree to hang it from I've just plopped it down in the snow for a short break with no worries. Only 4* because the removable top piece likes to slip loose if there is any weight in it, but this is an easy fix by just changing out the sliders on the webbing. Also there is a place for a bladder but there is no exit for the hose so you must keep the pouch partially unzipped in the corner which is not a problem but just a visual thing. Also I wish there was a mesh pocket for a water bottle or a small pocket on the waist strap... Wishes not necessities though. Great bag lots of space (when you need it) and very comfy. I've used this bag for day hikes to weekend trips and plan to use it for some more extended trips soon!

KF Baby Diaper Bag Insert Organizer -12 x 6.4 x 8 inch, Khaki

KF Baby Diaper Bag Insert Organizer -12 x 6.4 x 8 inch, KhakiI had to return this because it was simply too large to fit in a medium sized, hobo style purse. Probably works fine for a LARGE tote bag. Be aware that the dividers do not connect to the bottom, so items may sneak between compartments.

This item had a VERY strong plastic smell which made it not useful in a baby's diaper bag! It should be labeled as something useful in a tool bag. I couldnt even use it! I tried washing it three times and airing it out and nothing even made the smell lessen. I threw it away because I knew I couldnt return it because I washed it. After writing a bad review the seller notified me through email and said it was labeled as cleaning and they would refund my money for the purchase. I haven't received any refund and Amazon has it clearly labeled as a baby Diaper bag organizer. No way would I let anything that had a chemical smell like this anywhere near my baby's things!!

Buy KF Baby Diaper Bag Insert Organizer -12 x 6.4 x 8 inch, Khaki Now

This is a really useful insert but I can't use it because it smells horrible! I washed it with Downy Unstopables and let it air out for over a month and it still smells like chemicals! I stuck my nursing cover-up, nursing pads, diapers and burp cloth in it and now they have the same smell... Don't know how else to make the smell go away.

Read Best Reviews of KF Baby Diaper Bag Insert Organizer -12 x 6.4 x 8 inch, Khaki Here

So, I bought this because I get a small duffel bag (it about 16" x 10") every Cigarfest show I attend, and after I empty it of cigars, it is handy for traveling with gadgets and smaller items. The problem is that the center main section of this little bag has no compartments or organization, and the interior is black, so its hard to see on the road and at night what is inside.

Firstly, the manufacturing/petroleum/who knows smell goes away in about a day. I put it outside and 24 hours later it smelled like any other new luggage piece.

So I got this in khaki to contrast with the black in this small duffel (it about 16" x 10") so that I could see

things like GPS cables, mounts, cameras, phones, etc. It really works for this purpose. It could even be a range or target bag, as this material is designed to repel most stains, and the compartments are high enough to organize, but not so deep that its like going for a prize in a cereal box.

So, like other reviewers pointed out, the weak point is the lack of seams at the bottom of the compartments. Items tend to shift during travel, and they can sometimes creep into other compartments, especially coins or smaller items. But for the most part, this bag performed very well on my last 2000 mile road trip. GPS in a pocket, power in another, flashlight, bottle of water, and still room for maps and whatever along the sides. You could use it to make any bag into a small travel/tactical/flight/medic bag.

So it isn't perfect, but it is as close as I'll come without spending 4 8 times more on a specialized bag. And it reuses a duffel bag I have in great amounts.

Back Pack Sailor Soilders Starry Background Sailor Moon GE Animation

Back Pack Sailor Soilders Starry Background Sailor Moon GE AnimationMy eight year old daughter is absolutely in love with Sailor Moon. I was hoping to find a backpack for her that not everyone else would have that was purchased locally. I chose this one because it had the various Sailor Scouts and she loved it. The zipper gets caught on the surrounding material if it is not zipped carefully, but it seems to be holding up well and is a good size.

I bought this for my niece who loves sailor moon . It was a birthday gift and she loved it so much she couldnt wait to show it off at school the next day. It looks like a good durable backpack.

About 4 months into owning this with light use (laptop and notebook at most) 3-4 days a week the shoulder straps pulled away from the material. The blue material of the bag itself seems to be the cause as the shoulder bags/messenger bags of the same material have had the same problem for me. The seams fray and pull apart. Such a shame but I LOVE the design of these products. Would just like to see them made more durable.

I absolutely love this back pack and it was absolutely my favorite until it broke this morning. The right strap just snapped (and I literally mean SNAPPED) right off at the bottom of the backpack, leaving a tremendous hole. Not only did it ruin the rest of my day, but I'm so sad now. I'm going to try to figure out if I can maybe sew it back together, but I'm afraid it will just break again.

I wish this backpack was made a little more sturdy. I've had it for less than a month!

Case Logic 17" Laptop and Projector Roller

Case Logic ZLRP-117 Rolling Projector Case with 17-Inch Laptop StorageMy projector would not fit!!!

From the Case Logic Site "holds portable projectors up to 11.5 x 10 x 4.5 inches".

My projector is a bit under 4.5 inches high and it was impossible to zip the case.

Fits everything, but more importantly fits a 17" laptop with no problem. Also allows me to carry a second laptop and my iPad. Or enough clothing for a night or two.

Had a damaged zipper when I received the case. I contacted Amazon, They told me to contact the manufacturer. I was very surprised when they contacted the manufacturer for me. I received all the instructions and forms, took some pictures, emailed them in with my form, and within week I had a replacement case.

This speaks highly of Amazon and Case Logic.

If you are wanting a large, heavy monster to take with you... by all means get this. But seriously, there is absolutely NO extra room for anything. I searched everywhere looking for something that I can pack my 17" laptop and cords in and still have a little room for a few small toys for my toddler to take with me on my flight. I was excited to see the fedex truck pull up and give me my package. As soon as I opened it, I realized that this is NOT what I was expecting. I even watched the video again just too see if maybe I was mistaking. But sadly, no. The video is misleading. You do not have the removable case and there is hardly any room for the extras. I can guarantee that after you get your laptop, cords, and what little bit you can fit in, the weight of this thing will be too much of a hassle to deal with for a simple carry on. There is not a whole lot of padding. So don't waste your money. This is going to be returned asap.

This is a great product but not the one in the video and pics. I am enjoying it but do wish it had the pullout inserts.

I bought this case for my new business. I will be traveling around to different locations using this case a mobile office. I wanted something to be able to put my larger laptop, files , projector when needed, and my mobile HP printer. You would need the smallest projector in the world(maybe the one you hook onto an iphone) to fit in this bag. You need something less than 3.5 inches in height. I have my laptop and files in bag and barely have room for my mobile printer. The pull handle is basically in the projector compartment with thin fabric cover over the handle taking up a lot of space where your projector should go. Once everything is loaded, it really stretches our the zippers. I am afraid that after a few months the zippers will fail.

I would also not look at this bag for a overnight trip. There is just not enough room unless you are only packing small grooming bag and some flip flops, but they would only fit if you were not taking a projector or printer. There is just not enough room for everything I need in mobile office.

I wish I had purchased on Amazon....... but I did not..... when will I learn.

Clik Elite Klettern Backpack for Photographers CE735GR

Clik Elite Klettern Backpack for Photographers CE735GRI wanted a camera bag that I could have on the go to carry around my Nikon D3200 and hold other things I had with me. Laptop, extra lenses, cables, a jacket and some snacks. Stumbling upon this camera bag from Clik Elite far surpassed my expectations! From being one of the most stylish camera bags out there, this bag really turns heads. The price is in the median range towards bags that suits most peoples needs. One of the extra great features it has is the rain fly that's tucked away from the bottom back and the tripod flap that is tucked away from the bottom front. I really recommend this camera bag to anyone looking to have their camera with them on the daily and that's on the move a lot and need that extra space for their laptop and gear!

Tenba Discovery 637-322 Mini Photo Daypack - Sage/Khaki

Tenba Discovery 637-322 Mini Photo Daypack - Sage/KhakiI purchased this bag to replace my Lowepro fastpack 100, because I wanted the ability to carry my iPad (1st gen) and Canon 60D at Disney World. I didn't want a big bag, as I am going for 8 days in summer.

The quality of the bag is excellent. Zippers and pockets are in good places. Side pockets are huge, and won't have any problems holding large water bottles. The shoulder straps are just right, and the sternum strap helps prevent shoulder strap creep. This bag feels light on the back, but like any bag, will get heavy when loaded up with water and lenses.

Ok, so what is the downside? I can't get my iPad in the "tablet" pocket with my very slim Yoobao cover. It's not even close. With the iPad cover removed, the iPad slides in nice. It is so snug that it becomes difficult to take it back out for quick use. Hopefully it will loosen up.

So what am I packing? I usually have a battery grip on the 60D, but unlike the Lowepro fastpack, it didn't fit well with the provided repositionable Velcro dividers. I took off the grip and it fits great while still providing room for 2 more lenses, or in my case, a 35mm Rokinin f1.4 and a speedlite flash. The 60D has a Tamron 18-270 vc lense attached.

The top area has a fair amount of room for extras, but just slightly less than the fastpack. This area does contain the included rain cover, which they claim is washable. What is really cool, is the camera padding is removable. Then the divider that seperates the camera area to the top area can be repositioned/removed making a normal (but expensive) backpack.

Final thoughts....I really like it and would highly reccomend the bag IF you really need the smallest and lightest backpack around. If you will want to access your iPad a lot, or need to keep the battery grip + 2 lenses, I would recommend the bigger model.

Edit (7/6/2012)

The bag performed flawlessly during my 8 day trip to Disney World. We got hit by tropical storm Debby, and the included rain cover was excellent! The iPad is still difficult to get in/out, but I would rather have it this way and not add to the thickness of the bag. The bag had plenty of room, and it was very comfortable to carry around when loaded up. I highly recommend this bag.

After looking at seemingly hundreds of camera daypacks, I discovered Tenba @ Amazon. But which one to select? Remember Goldilocks & the three bears?

The Tenba Mini Photo Daypack is TOO SMALL, especially the iPad slot.

The Tenba Large Photo Daypack is way TOO BIG;

The Tenba Medium is JUST RIGHT, yet the least available:

good size camera/lens section;

good size, separate section for lunch, rain jackets, etc.

built-in section for a hydration bladder!

chest & waist belts for optimal weight distribution.

I was looking for a backpack that would hold my gear with room to put other stuff of use with travel and on airplane as carryon. Bag is perfect. Fits 2 small or medium SLR's and 2 lenses or 1 camera and 2-3 lenses. Plus room for other stuff up top. C for table to wear and looks great too. Doesn't even look like a camera bag.

I bought this back pack on the recommendation of a full time working photographer and I must say he was spot on. This is a very good daypack for medium and small sized gear (4/3rds). You can really cram in a large amount of gear in what looks like a small bag.

I've ben photographing in the Southwest for the past 3 weeks and it's been excellent. It's quite light weight and the construction is first class. It also has a rain cover that takes up very little space. I had to use it once in New Mexico and it worked excellently. If you are in a very hot environment, having the color a tan/green is much better than black. Items in the bag won't get boiled and your back will feel better.

My only gripe about the bag is that it could use one or two more accessory pockets or the means by which you could add them. Not a deal breaker but it would be nice.
