Ta
A few more pics / mini review :
The "AW" bit is All Weather - you'll see why in a tad and the "Flipside" is due to the rear entry (phnar phnar) / security measures to protect your kit
Went for Black as opposed to Olive
You can see the small buckle at the back for tripod / monopod, but again more on that in a tad
Both sides are pretty similar with a "pouch" and strap / buckle for bottles of water, gin, etc.
The buckle / strap i mentioned on the back (poor quality pic alert)
Can be used to lash a small(ish) mono or tripod onto along with a fold out pouch / holder, hidden like so (but identified by the camera / tripod icon)
Pulls out as so
There is a small back pack for sarnies, books, kindle. ipad or a hip-flask :
But the main compartment is opened from the side which would normally be nice and safe against your back
No way an opportunist thief is swiping your gear from that
The waist straps can be done up, unhook the main should straps and "swivel" it round infront of you to fold down like a large codpiece to access your kit and also act as a "rest" for changing lenses etc.
On the underside is another icon
And again with a little lift of a velcro strap you can pull out and apply the built in rain cover
Opening the flap up reveals a flat storage compartment and a few spare SD Card storage compartments
The main storage compartment is a really good size and has a full compliment of fully adjustagbale and configurable sections to accomodate a whole range of options for your kit
And to give you a feel for size (excuse the ipotato pic) :
That's a D7100 with 35mm prime and an 18-55 kit lens along with a 70-210 lens and as you can see plenty of more room for more stuff as well.
You will easily get a few more lenses, spare battery / batteries and filters / charger etc in there, even a few cans of stella.
Its comfy to wear and my only real niggle (given the price and where it came from) is that it could well be a fake. Having said that it is, for the price, still a great bag im sure I will be using on most trips out
. We already run a video production and photography agency so it'll compliment everything we're doing already and we'll be promoting more specialist work (from sole aerial work to non-media related applications like surveying and other data acquisition).
