Excellent pack. I highly recommend.
I have been a pro photographer for over 30+ years. I am also an avid motorcyclist. I like this camera pack because it hold all the essentials I need when on my bike. I also like the fact I can take the internal unit and place it in my motorcycle trunk and have access to camera gear from there. It is well made and sturdier than I expected. I have my DSLR wil dual battery pack in it. A 27-80 and 80-300 zoom in it. A flash unit with bounce unit with spare batteries, extra memory cards and all my little gadgets like lens wipes etc.... And room to spare. I can also put my MP3 and cell in it. It's a real good pack and I use it even without the camera insert. I will recommend. As with ANY pack... It is made for a specific purpose, don't overload it.

Just what I was looking for!
Excellent for hiking and outdoors use!I just got back from two weeks in Israel. The only time I wasn't wearing this bag was when I slept because I had my camera and passport in it.I am really happy with the anti-theft design of this bag. Some of the Muslim areas around Jerusalem are known for their pick pockets. (which I witnessed first hand) but I didn't have to worry about it.The rain proof ability of this bag is pretty awesome! The rain hood is sown to the bag so it cant get lost. you just pull it out of the pocket and pull it over the bag. It worked really well.One of the cons that a lot of people take issue with is the inconvenience of accessing the bag. I didn't find this to be a problem. I just clipped the bottom strap and pivoted the bag around like a fanny pack when I need to take something out.When I got the bag it was kinda smashed, but it straitened out over time.Some people said the straps broke. I went two weeks averaging about 10 miles per day including some running with no problems. Maybe I just got lucky that the straps lasted? I had no trouble at all.I do wish there was more pockets to put stuff in. there is one zipper pocket on the outside and one on the inside. I carried a compact tripod inside the bag. I never strapped it into the actual tripod holder. I think it would just fall out.Besides what I mentioned everything else about this bag was awesome! I have no regrets

Not a well thought out pack...
I've carried around a Lowepro AWS pack for my Nikon gear for a long time but I was looking for a small camera pack for my Fuji X-T1 setup that would be compact and lightweight. I thought this pack would do the trick but I'm not too crazy about the dimensions. I'm 5'10", medium build. The pack fit feels like a kid's size pack. The shoulder straps seem short if you loosen them to let the pack ride lower on your back for a comfortable fit. That part is okay but the dimension/design that bugs me is the depth of the pack (front to back). There is 8" of depth when 4" or 5" would suffice. (A Fuji body is only 4" tall and even my D800 with a battery grip is only 6 1/2" tall.) That makes too much room for things to flop around It would have been nice to see a narrower pack or a partition added with a zippered back to stuff non camera gear in. The side tripod holder straps and flaps I can only describe as stupid. This looks like they asked some design students to come up with something different but forgot to tell them it also had to be functional.The materials and construction appear to be good. (To test concerns encountered in other reviews, I tugged hard on the straps and the stitching held and was tight.) Compared to other camera packs, it's very affordable and a good value but I wish they had put more thought/experience into it. I'm not sure that I will hang on to it.Update 3/21. I'm raising my review to 4 stars to take into account that BESTEK stands behind their products. Based on my initial 3 star review, I was contacted by a customer service representative an offered a full refund or replacement for the pack. I thought that was good follow through on their part and I would not hesitate to purchase one of their products in the future that fit my needs.

Could have been great.
Picked this up for a couple weeks abroad. Imotially a great bag. It held our Cannon Rebel, 18-55mm,75-300, spare battery and a handful of cards. Easy to organize and plenty of space. The exterior nylon is strong and the rain fly works great. Two full days of Norse rain no problem. Unfortunately it let me down from there. Day one chest strap breaks. Well it doesn't break, but even with our small load the side grooves that hold onto the straps were too weak to hold so it was constantly popping off. My first thought was; it was inexpensive for a reason. Day 2-8 great. Took the weather and the miles. Day 9 on the backside of a 5 hour hike the right shoulder strap snaps. Luckily I was able to Jerry rig it and hike out. I know the price is right but not for a weeks worth of gear carry. Such potential yet low cost materials in crucial areas makes this a dead end.

It's cool if stays together
I absolutely loved this bag. I lied the color, construction, padding, entry, and straps. I soon realized that the construction is not all it was cracked up to be. The zippers all quickly started failing on me mid way thru an adventure to Utah's Zion National Park. Even when this started happening I was settling with it to stick with the awesome color, good feeling straps, and cool design while still having enough space inside.Its sad to say that the zippers broke within about 3-4months of me having it and another con of the strap on the side making it super weird to carry a tripod or anything due to making it very lopsided.This was a cool product when it worked. It could use some better designs and better construction but the concept is alright.
