<p>I have a CompuTrekker Plus AW. There is tons of space in it. I am glad it has never been weighed! I have a D300 without the MB-D10 and it fits fine. Worst case you might have to take the grip off. I usually carry with me:<br /> <br /> - Nikon 50 mm<br /> - Nikon VR 18-200mm<br /> - Nikon 18-70mm<br /> - Charger plus power cord<br /> - extra batteries<br /> - 6 CF cards<br /> - SB-600 with pocket bounce<br /> - Manuals for camera and flash<br /> - 15" Laptop<br /> - Monopod strapped to the side (only been asked once what it was going though security in Vienna and they had no problem with it)<br /> - Lens cleaner, batteries for flash, odds and ends<br /> <br /> That is just my camera stuff... I also keep have a couple pens, highlighter, business cards, small pen light, etc. I find the laptop pocket is great to stuff a magazine into too.<br /> <br /> The inside pockets in the large compartment are great. I use the top one for my plane tickets and passport. I never have to unzip the bag fully to get at them. The two compression straps make sure the bag never fully opens unless I want it to.<br /> <br /> I have traveled for up to a week at a time only with this bag too. Yes... I also stuff my clothes and travel toiletries into it. I never check luggage unless I have to. I would rather be weighted down a bit with a backpack rather than have lost stuff.<br /> <br /> I did remove the waist strap. I only put it on if I am really going to be doing a lot of hiking. I found it getting in the way when I didn’t need it. I lost a buckle off the waist strap on the way to Ukraine but Lowepro sent me a replacement at no charge. It is nice to have a company out there do that for free. Customer service rates high on my list!<br>
I have found it fits under all seats in planes but you loose all your foot room. It will not fit into all smaller planes overhead compartments though.<br>
The only disadvantage to this bag (and most backpacks) is you have to take it off and set it down to get any gear you want out. I have to think ahead of what I want on me so I don’t have to go digging. You can stuff way more than 10kg so be careful you don’t get weighed at the airport – or put so much stuff in you break your back!</p>
Camera bag?
