The variety alone of this system is worth the investment, but the quality and ease of use is also very high which is a big plus. You can get a case for any lens, camera body, or accessory you have. I even have cases for my cell phone and water bottle. One word of caution, be sure to measure your lens with the lens hood on backwards if you use them to make sure that the entire thing will fit into the pouch, because sometimes the lens will fit, but then the lens with the lens hood will not. I often carry 5-6 lenses, extension tubes, teleconverters, extra memory cards and batteries, and a bunch of cleaning supplies and other gadgets, which weights a ton. But when they are evenly distributed on this vest/belt Lowepro system it is actually very manageable.
The only down side is that everyone will be staring at you because you have thousands of dollars of camera equipment strapped to your body. But if you can overlook that, this is the way to go. I have used this system at many zoos without ever having problems, in fact just unzipping a single lens and switching seems safer to me than opening an entire bag of equipment every time you want to switch lenses. Many of the cases also come with a built in rain/snow cover so if the weather changes all of your equipment is not destroyed. You can also put just a few pouches on a normal belt when you are just going to take photos in the back yard or don't need to take all of your equipment, which is nice. I really can't say enough about how much easier this makes traveling with a lot of equipment, if you have been hopelessly searching for a better solution, consider this, you won't regret it.

I bought Rokinon 500mm mirror telephoto lens. It's 4.5" in diameter, too wide for a lot of lens cases. The lens, with the T-Mount attached fits fine. And the lid pouch had a place for filters in the cases. Yeah it's big, but unlike other Lowpro pouches I have, this one comes with a shoulder stap too. A lot better than the bulky lens rolling around.Best Deals for Lowepro Lens Case 4S
When I carry my ultra wide angle lens, I need a case to accommodate the lens with the hood. The hood is quite wide, and this case fits the whole thing perfectly. It has a long strap, so you can carry it on your shoulder comfortably. It also comes with built-in waist belt straps. The design of this case is very well thought off and it offers good protection for your lens. I highly recommend it.Honest reviews on Lowepro Lens Case 4S
I got this case for my 16-35 f2.8 LII USM lens ... i fits really nice in it ... with place for the hood too.if you go with the smaller bag for the same lens ... it wont fit.
for the bag it self, the quality of the construction is really good. i am not sure if it is weather sealed or not ... but will it defiantly stop the normal drops of water.
size was an issue ... cuz i thought it will be relatively small ... but for me it is really big ...
apart from the size ... i would have given it 5 stars ...
