Gotta love Domke products. I've owned a Domke over ten years (the smaller satchel model) and it looks as good as new. Needed something that could accomodate my new k10-d and attachments so I got the F-3x.

As the other reviewer said, I'm not giving this one five stars simply because the 'floor padding' could be just a tiny bit bigger. Not so much in thickness, but in coverage (it could be bigger).

This bag will accomodate a large slr with a medium/large zoom, two more lenses and there is still space for a few more gizmos like flashes, user manual, etc...

I wish I owned one of these ten or even twenty years ago. This bag is as close to perfect as I've encountered. Construction is solid, the canvas is reasonably durable. I waterproofed it with a spray-on product from a local camping/outdoorsman's shop.

The best thing about this bag, though, is the size. Not too big, not too small. It is perfect for my Nikon D1x (F5-size) with lens, an additional lens or two, both spare batteries, SB-28DX flash, my Linux subnotebook, several compact flash cards, and lens cleaning kit.

With some cramming, I have been able to squeeze an F100 camera body in as a film backup, but this is not a comfortable fit for the bag. I have a larger bag for when I need more gear, though.

This bag is perfect for light-to-medium travel. In other words, most of the time.

Cheers!

I really like this bag. It doesn't scream "I'm a camera bag with expensive stuff in me!" It has a really subdued look and, from what I have experienced so far, it's also quite durable. I would have possibly added some padding to the bottom of the bag for a bit of cushion, otherwise I would have given it 5 stars.

Honest reviews on Domke 700-30D F-3X Super Compact Bag -Olive Drab

I have several camera bodies and lenses, but when I go out to shoot, I often like to travel light and take only one body and two lenses I expect to use. I got this bag because I like the easy access and the material (waxed canvas) and durable construction. It is easily accessable, has roomy side pockets for extra cards, cables, lens cleaning items, etc., and is made with quality materials and excellent construction. The only improvement I would like to see is more rigidity. When I have my camera with lens attached and an extra telephoto in the main compartment, the bag sags more than I like. I did add some corrugated panels of plastic in the bottom of the bag and in the back pocket to give more rigidity.

This is a wonderful bag for an SLR body, 2 or 3 lenses and accessories. Canvas has a great look and feel. Construction is top-notch and it handles great. The famous Gripper strap is nice. The only minor complaint is that velcro is used for the pocket enclosures, which can be too noise in certain situations.
