I have a few smaller bags, each serving a purpose.
The past year or so I have been carrying three bags on a small ladder kart to haul my gear around at weddings, baptisms, etc.
I felt like I would either forget which pouch had items in it or that it looked unprofessional to carry a mishmosh of bags.
I was thinking of going with Pelican hard cases, or even Tamrac as I prefer their bags over Lowepro.
I wish this bag had larger wheels because it seems as though the bag would wear down if dragged at the wrong angle.
Apparently, Lowepro thought of this too because the bottom has hard plastic to prevent any material from ripping.
The wheels are removable which is a big improvement over bags they made in the past.. There aren't an abundance of pockets which I was shocked with, but in thinking about it it's less stuff to lose (I cannot tell you how many lens pens I have).
These companies always supply tons of dividers which I always end up ripping out. I am sure that many of us can make our own bags with extra dividers we have laying around!
The zippers on the bag are rugged and I have no doubt they will stand the test of time.
A lot of thought went into this bag from the kickstand and tripod mounts I will hardly utilize to the handles on three sides of the bag for easy lifting (if you discount the weight).
Make no mistake about it, this bag is HEAVY and is NOT an everyday bag. However, for weddings, etc. I highly recommend it.

If you need space and protection, this is for you. This is not the everyday little camera bag. It's a "get serious now 'cause we're going to shoot a wedding" (BV, Commercial Shoot, Family Reunion, or whatever event finds you needing all of your stuff) camera case.Very well made, does all the neat things the ad says it will do although I have not tried to unzip the center and use it as a back pack. I sort of doubt that I would want to carry this much weight around, but getting on a plane with it might not be so bad.
Wonderful product.
Best Deals for Lowepro Pro Roller x300 Camera Bag (Black)
I love the fact that I now can put my energy into the shoot as opposed to just getting there. This bag has a lot of great options... the handle tripod attachment being one of my favorites but I the only reason I give it 4 stars instead of five is I wish it had bungee straps on the outside to hold reflectors and a few more small exterior pockets for quick access. The quality is fantastic. It rolls well and so far it's the best bag on the market... I'm just obsessive about organization & that is why I feel those other options would be nice.Honest reviews on Lowepro Pro Roller x300 Camera Bag (Black)
This bag is great! It holds pretty much everything my husband needs for a shoot. It has lighted our load and makes it much easier to transport. Little pricey but would buy again.Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Lowepro Pro Roller x300 Camera Bag (Black)
This is one of the larger roller camera bags I have seen, which is what I wanted. I use this for airline travel as well as local transport of my gear for on-location shoots, like wedding and portrait work. Good solid construction. Good ability to remodel the inside to fit lenses, cameras, flashes, etc. This carries all my flash gear, three camera bodies, 5 lenses (15mm fisheye up to a 70-200mm lens), and all my other paraphernalia (wireless triggers, batteries, various charging equipment, CF cards, etc). I am extremely happy with the construction and setup of the bag.Other thoughts: About 50% of the time TSA rifles through it and leaves their little notes. Slightly more expensive than the ThinkTank option but also a bit larger for more equipment.
Very happy with my purchase.
