Small - Day Pack Size September 20, 2008
Tamrac 5273 Expedition 3 SLR Photo Backpack (Black)This is a great little backpack. It works well for what I need for some trips. Yes, it is SMALL. Although the picture of the backback may be a bit deceiving, the product description described it perfectly. The dimensions were 9.5x8x14.5. The size of the backpack allows me to place the backpack under the seat in front of me when I fly and still have room for my feet. I don't like to put my backpack in the overhead as on some flights the flight attendents have re-arranged and re-located my backpack to other overhead compartments. I can fit my Nikon D80 with lens attached, one additional lens and flash. In addition, I store my Cannon Elf, chargers for both the Canon, Nikon and cell phone, extra battery, manuals and other small camera related items and some personal stuff. I even store a paperback book in the outside pocket. Yup, tight fit! Much easier for me when I'm dealing with luggage as well. I usually leave non-Nikon related stuff in the hotel room while I'm at my destination which lightens the pack. On trips where I have more time for taking pictures I usually take my larger backpack that stores my laptop as well and any other lens that I might want to take. As others have mentioned, getting into the packback because of the rain guard is a little tricky. Havent' had the zipper stick, but it's a two hand operation. On the other hand, I doubt that anyone could get into the backpack in crowded areas and you not know it. The shoulder straps are stiff and not the most comfortable, but tolerable for me. The backpack is very well constructed. I would recommend this backback, but, do your homework. Read the product description and not rely on the picture. The backpack is small....great little daypack!
 way too small September 18, 2008
The picture tends to make the product look larger than it is. When I recieved the product I had to decide if I would keep it or not. I kept it and use it for short trips but it doesn't hold much.
 excellent choice August 15, 2008
Loved, loved this case. It's just the right size for my needs. Holds my Nikon body and 3 lenses as well as flash. I'm not a professional photographer, but enjoy quality products...it's not a mongo, flashy, here I am and I've got expensive gear kind of look. Would buy again.
Great bag, a couple flaws August 10, 2008
The bag works well overall and has many compartments and configuration options.
My two problems were the straps killed my shoulders after a few hours. Mainly because they sewed leather strips onto the straps. This would drag my t-shirt, causing irritation. I had to cut off the leather strips. That wasn't too optimal.
Second was the big lip covering the zipper makes it a bit tough to zipper quickly. It gets stuck several times in the opening and closing process.
Even with those flaws, I still like the bag for its compactness, sturdiness, and style.
 Tiny August 4, 2008
I knew I was buying a small camera backpack but I had no idea that it was that tiny! The photo makes us think it is bigger but it is really tiny! It fits just a small camera such us Canon XTi (no batery grip), one extra small lens such as Tamron 17-50mm, and some memories or bateries - THAT IS ALL - The thing that really bothered me most is that it is too narrow, shallow, and tight. It is really impossible to fit all that gear showed in the photo they use for the commercial. DO NOT BUY IT! IT DOES NOT WORTH!
