Excellent bag for travel with your SLR
I purchased this bag for my Canon Digital Rebel SLR and I am extremely pleased. It is not the largest gadget bag that I own, but it is the best by far. The bag itself is 10" high, 9" wide and 6" deep so it is ideally sized for travel with your camera. It is well sized and balanced for carrying over one shoulder using the comfortable strap which is included. The bag is made of nylon, but it has a very study frame to it so the bag keeps its shape. Lowepro was generous with distributing the padding and I feel that the bag keeps my equipment quite safe.
The bag includes padded dividers which can be configured using Velcro. I have the bag configured so that I put my camera body with my 28-135mm lens attached into the bag lens first so that I can take it out again quickly. The dividers have rigidity to them so I am comfortable that they will support the camera body without risking the lens will hit the bottom of the bag. There is also enough room for my 300mm lens and accessories such as my spare batteries or lens covers.
Pockets include one on each side of the bag. There is a great zippered pocket on the back of the bag that is really useful for quickly stowing papers or books. There is also a zippered pocket inside the top flap where I keep my memory cards. The pocket on the front is also zippered and subdivided to store memory cards, filters, etc.
The bag includes a limited lifetime warranty. The bag is very well built and much better than any of the similar bags that I was looking at such as those by Targus which I did not think were as sturdy as this one.
In summary, I think that this is a great bag for a SLR camera. I use it extensively for my travels and I am very happy with it.

Perfect getaway/travel bag...
This is my second Lowepro bag (the other being a Slingshot 100 AW), but it's my most preferred. This is especially true for those days when I want to carry just the camera and one zoom lens (in my case, an Olympus E-500 with a 14-54mm/f2.8-3.5 lens) for family outings and visits, parties, etc. This should not imply the bag doesn't hold all I need, quite the contrary. This bag easily accommodates a FL-36 flash, an Olympus EC-14 teleconverter, Stofen Omnibounce, a spare BLM-1 battery, extra batteries for my flash, extra CF cards, a Lenspen, a tabletop tripod, a CP filter, and RM-1 remote switch, and other small accessories. It can even accept my E-500/14-54 with the EC-14 mounted as well, with no loss of room -- all this in a compact size and it's relatively lightweight too. What more can I ask?
