Q: 2. Can this bag be used for carry-on on airplanes?

A: You may carry this on as long as the dimensions are within the size limits of your airline. they are sometimes slightly different. I will tell you that many fliers have items that are larger than the limit and they don't seem to care as long as it is not too large. This case is not very big. Nice case i like it. How do you like your C-100? I really like mine.

Q: 4. How much more than camera can it hold? What does inside look like?

A: The inside of the bag is burnt orange with a tight black document pocket on one side. It comes with a velcro divider. With the HM170 in the bag there's about 3-4 inches of clearance in front of the camera, assuming you push the camera all the way to one side. There's probably 1-2 inches of clearance on the sides of the camera. These measurements were taken with the lens hood and microphone mounted. I would say there's enough room for the camera, power supply, a few batteries, and some small items but not much else.
