The backpack is well-made, but doesn't have enough room to suit my professional needs. In a couple of areas, it actually has less than my existing backpack. I was expecting more capacity. The interior is about the same, the exterior pockets will not hold all my extras (flash bracket, jacket, Black Rapid double harness, extra flash, extra batteries, facemask, scarf) that my existing backpack holds. I was given the impression that it would have more space than what I have. The only advantages would be if I carry a laptop, which is rare, or if I get caught in a steady rain (also rare). I have requested a return for a refund and have had no reply as of the time a review was requested.
