Sweet ... with reservations

Rating:****
Let me first say ... I love this bag. I do wish there was a size between the 200 and the 100. But the 100 will work just fine as a one camera grab and go bag. The included waterproof cover is great and practically stored. It's a bit limited in flexibility in my opinion due to one issue. I'd like to be able to grab it and sling over one arm sometimes instead of across the chest. I've not discovered a comfortable what to accomplish that. As designed ... across the chest .. it works perfectly ... rotating to the front for access. It's a very nice addition to my collection of packs and camera bags. Well made and has held up without being babied. Highly reccmd this product.
I can carry a Nikon D40 or D90 with a 18-200 zoom attached (with hood reversed), extra batteries, binoculars, speed light, strap, charger, extra memory cards, adaptors, extra 18-55 len, Pharos GPS for geo-tagging and a bunch of other things including a snack or two. Not my hiking set up unless just out in the park with the dogs. Glad I bought this pack.

Love this bag

Rating:*****
Used and abused this bag in Europe for a month and it performed (almost) flawlessly. My Nikon D200 was a little big for the Slingshot 100, but the bag rose to the occasion. I traveled with a 70-300mm on the side, photobank, extra cards and batteries, and still had room in the slim design for a journal, guidebook, snacks and a compact waterbottle. Love this bag, it's not too bulky and wonderfully set up.

My only grip is one of the zipper pulls ripped off the last week of the trip.

Excellent Combo pack

Rating:*****
Very handy pack which easily fits a digital SLR with attached lens (I use a Nikon D70s with 21-300mm), 2 additional lenses or other accessories, as well as a small digital camcorder in the end pocket. Comfortable wear with quick access to both compartments. The sling anchors snugly to the body if you're on a bike or on the run from a bear. I highly recommend this well-designed compact camera bag.
