I love this backpack. It's a great protection for our camera. It has many straps to fix tripod and additional accessories. I accidentally dropped the backpack while I was unloading the car but camera and lenses were absolutely ok. During our last trip we got drench in rain but internal part of backpack stayed dry.

I would highly recommend this product for anybody how owns one camera body and three lenses.

For those who are worried if the backpack it too small:

I own Canon 50D which is quite large body, then telephoto lens 200-500 mm and other two smaller lenses. If I add two hoods and battery charger the backpack is pretty much full. There is a front pocket for keys and wallet and some other small bits but that's all.

This is Tamrac's model 5374 "Adventure 74" pack. They also have a whole Adventure series of various sizes this is not one of them. This backpack is simply great. It's well made and very versatile, with lots of moveable velcro dividers so you can customize it. Mine holds a Sony a300 with 28-300 lens attached, 70 Macro, 10-20 zoom, large flash unit, ringlight, extra battery with charger, 4 extra memory cards, filter wallet with 6 filters, bounce card, remote release, lens cleaning supplies, lens hoods, "Magic Lantern" guide, and several other small cords and gadgets. Used on a recent snowshoe outing, it was secure and comfortable to carry. The flip side is that it doesn't simply slip off when you need to get into it, but I'm OK with that. I haven't tried carrying a tripod with it yet but a friend who has a bigger version of this pack reports that it works well for him.

Best Deals for Tamrac 5374 Rust/Black Adventure 74 Photo Backpack (Rust/Black)

I had seen the larger version of this backpack (the 75) and it seemed to be very flexible and well made, so I sought out the 74. Of course, I think they are discontinuing this line and calling it the Explorer or something, but this is a great pack. The way the digital SLR fits in there is great and the soft velcro dividers are easily customizable. The zippers are great and the fact that it works with Tamrac's accessory system is a bonus. Perfect side for the beginning DSLR photographer to grow into.

Honest reviews on Tamrac 5374 Rust/Black Adventure 74 Photo Backpack (Rust/Black)

I bought this backpack based on another recommendation herein that it would hold my DSLR body (Nikon D80), regular lens, 75-300mm zoom lens, and especially a 200-500mm lens (I have the Tamrac). This is exactly what I have and wanted to carry.

Well, my stuff barely fits VERY snug to the point I'm a little wary. And it does not hold the 200-500mm hood at all.

The 5375 might have given me more room, but it looked like the 5374 would work OK and it was ~$30 less.

Anyway, be aware that if you have 200-500mm Zoom, it may not fit to your liking.
