I bought this pack to shoot a wedding in which I'd have to travel by plane. Great compact size, that didn't take up a lot of room on the plane or during the wedding. It's small enough as well that it won't slow you down during a shoot. You are limited to the gear you can take, but that's part of the trade-off.

This bag was purchased as replacement for another Tamrac that we had outgrown. The bag held all of our current equipment and still had additional room for other items. Durability seems to be a hallmark. The backpack feature is very handy, especially when hiking, etc. with a two year old.

I use a modular Think-Tank belt system (fully loaded) and I needed additional storage for my camera gear and the Tamrac Adventure fit the bill just fine and at a very reasonable price.
Honest reviews on Tamrac Adventure 74 Digital Photo Backpack (Black)
I used the next smaller version of this bag for years until I got another lens. The smaller (Adventure 71) bag held a Prosumer sized SLR body with attached 18-200 lens, a full sized external flash, a 70-300 lens and several many accessories. I got a new 10-22mm lens and it just wouldn't fit no matter what, so I took a chance and knowing Amazon has a terrific return policy, went with the next size bigger. This bag is awesome! It holds everything mentioned before AND three of my most used lenses. To give a better idea of those before mentioned accessories... Several filters, memory cards, batteries, two remote shutter releases. (one wired, one wireless) a micro-fiber towel, lens cloth, lens tissue, lens brush, magnifying glass, voice recorder/tape, pen/paper, compass, flash diffusers and my hat. Although not made to, it also holds a monopod in one of the external straps (not sure how long the material will last but it has been over a year with no problems. This bag has been virtually everywhere with absolutely no issues. I did use a LowPro 202AW for a while and it's just too big and clumsy, although it does hold more. Never could get used to the single strap, not comfortable at all unless using the waist belt which only makes it tolerable, but then what's the point of having a sling bag. When using the Adventure 74, I wrap the waist belt up and around the two external side straps (one of which also supports the monopod) then take the shoulder straps and tuck them into the very comfortable grab handle on top. That gets rid of any of the loose straps when carrying like luggage and also keeps them off of dirty floors. On short distance walks like going from car and across a parking lot I might use one shoulder strap. Otherwise when walking longer distances it's just a back pack and surprisingly, it's not all that much bigger then the Adventure 71. The bag does have a place for a SMALL monopod or a VERY SMALL tripod on the very outer most part of the pack but it makes it impossible to get into the outside pouch. In my case I carry bigger so what's provided doesn't work. All in all for it's size and build quality, this bag is AWESOME!

I use this to carry my DSLR camera, two extra lenses, my camcorder plus cords and my supplies like batteries, extra SD cards, etc. I really like the chest strap. This bag is good and not too large. you can also strap a tripod to the outside quickly.
