Also need room for about 2 more lenses and some filters etc. any ideas ?? I dont want anything too huge as it will be a walk-around/carry type bag ,maybe something taller than wider. I'm using a case logic bag right now with their hammock system, love the bag but its a little too small to hold all my misc stuff. I also have a large Lowepro bag which holds all my gear but its way to cumbersome to walk around with. Any Ideas ??

Here's what Im using right now....

I really like that bag. Had I not just bought at City Walker 20 in February, I'd be all over this.

Ive been a Lowepro User with the 17L AW and a Black Rapid user (Like yourself) BUT when I saw this on Kickstarter I had to have it !!

I went all out with it, when it arrives in December I will be getting there capture clip system for the outside of the bag and also the Slide strap to replace my Rapid.

I waited until it was the last few days and did a lot of research on the bag (Video and Q&A Watching) and I really cant wait to receive it !!

Nice. I keep an eye on that capture system as well. I really like it and a friend is a dealer. Just haven't pulled the trigger :)

I was at a 10k Commando Challenge the other week and someone who was stood right next to me had the same lens as I had that day (70-200 2.8) but on a Canon and she had the capture clip on her back pack and I asked her how she found using it and she couldn't sing the praises enough !!

Get it ordered ;)

Yes, it is a nice bag, but I don't have anything to wear with it. Accessorising would be a nightmare.:nightmare:

Their products look very nice!

Has anyone used any of the straps? I was looking at the Pro Strap Pack that came with the slide strap and hand strap.

The person I was talking to at the Commando Challenge had the hand strap, it looked solid but I didnt quiz her on it as i have had a generic hand strap before and I really dont like them, your hand is "stuck" to the camera, I like to have it on a Slide strap to have my hand free for changing lenses etc

One reason why I love my Black Rapid wrist strap.

I don't think it was the generic ones problem. It felt nice and secure, it just didn't give me the freedom I wanted whilst using the camera, I think I would have the same problem with the Peak Design or the Rapid one, its just not my preference :)

The last week when I have been shooting I haven't used my Black Rapid at all, I have just used it hand held. Since moving to the D600 the extra weight makes it feel much more secure in my hands

Understood. What I meant was the BR strap fits loose on my wrist. You can adjust it so it fit's tight or loose to your personal preference :)

I picked up a Case Logic DSS-103. I had a Tamrac velocity 7x for my old camera D5000 and liked the fact that you could get a the camera fast. I picked up the D7100 with a battery grip and wanted the same feature. This bag has lots of room for what you listed and more (small laptop slot & exterior tripod straps).

I just ordered a Think Tank retrospective 20 & 40...I need to see both in person to see what works for me, you can only tell so much from you tube videos etc. Both bags seem to have great reviews.
