[20 mm] I got this on a Daily Deal, but feel it would be worth the frontline price, honestly. It's well-made, a well thought out and high quality. I used the main compartment to hold my EOS-R w/100-400 attached and a 35mm, 24-105, 10-18 EF with adapter, and a couple spare batteries. I stuck a couple of medium format film cameras in the top compartment along with a few other doo-dads and still haven't used all the space and compartments this thing has. It's truly a great fit for me.

[20 mm] I almost didn't buy it because cheesy cobranding usually results in an inferior product with an expensive name. But it met the specs I needed, it's actually made by Monfrotto, and the DealZone price was worth taking a chance.


Man, am I glad I bought this bag.


It's a great size--holds everything I need it to: a caged EOS RP with zoom attached, another body, 2-3 more lenses, a tablet or small laptop, lots of accessories, batteries, a tripod on the exterior... (Nothing personal against Lawrence, but he was clearly reviewing a different bag).


Build quality is great, I love that the main pouch is accessed from the reverse side and note the usual exposed exterior or side zippers--keeps things much more secure.



Well constructed with a an unusually (for this product category) tasteful color scheme.


I'd say this bag is worth it's usual price, but if it shows up in a DealZone again, grab it!

[2.235 lb] Great bag that holds most of my camera gear! I can fit my body with a telephoto lens and a few other lenses. I would make the side holders larger for bottles and tripods. Other than that! It's superb

[Center] very well made, a little bigger than my lowepro tahoe which it replaces. and especially with much more storage space, I can put my Z6 + 24-70 / f4 + 40mm + 28mm and a 105mm and my Nisi filters and acc. it is very comfortable to carry, really the best travel camera bag I have bought.
