This is the first camera bag I've purchased in 20 years. My Lowepro was looking shabby and had one broken zipper after two decades of use so I decided to replace it. The current Lowepro line up didn't offer what I was looking for but this Tamrac looked workable.
It appears to be well made. I underestimated the size of this bag. A Canon 60D with a 28-105 lens takes up 2/3 of the interior. The two front pockets are designed so that if you open the zippers completely the entire contents will spill out. A short zipper just across the top of each pocket would have been better. The bag is well padded and provides a fair degree of protection from jarring and bumping.
The main compartment has a zipper and also is secured by four plastic snap buckles. With the bag completely closed the contents are well protected from rain. The lid has a removable plastic pocket that snaps in place. I can snap out the pocket and bring filters and such with me if I'm moving but don't want to bring the entire bag.
I can't really fault this bag in any area but I can't bring myself to really love it either. I don't believe it is as durable as my last bag. Maybe after 6 months it will grow on me.
