Today's professional digital SLR bodies are larger than ever. Twist on a state-of-the-art zoom lens, and you've got a formidable piece of equipment that can challenge any compact camera bag.

Includes an adjustable non-slip Gripper Strap, removable hand carrying strap, YKK zipper, and steel snap hook. This is the perfect solution for carrying 1 Pro SLR with zoom lens mounted, 1-2 lenses, flash, and accessories. Like your favorite pair of jeans, Domke bags get better with age and with the new Domke RuggedWear collection you don’t have to wait. The fabric produces a unique distressed and weathered look right from the start. The RuggedWear classic bags feature high-quality, weather-tough, durable cotton canvas that is treated with special non-solvent waxes to afford the fabric a lifelong resistance to inclement weather.

By using the included refinishing wax, bags can be restored to its original finish quickly and easily.

This bag is the equivalent of a German car or Swiss watch: no prize winner in the price/value category (it's expensive!) but oh so beautifully engineered and built. There's not a single frill or useless feature. The gear is very well protected but very easy to get at on the fly without having to struggle with straps or buckles. And the thing looks cool--like something a grizzled photojournalist would carry. The tough construction makes it look like it will last through multiple wars (or at least lots of family vacations). My only concern is how long the velcro closures will last, but the flaps themselves should stay down even with less than perfect velcro, and can always be snapped.After buying based on a web page describption, I was a bit surprised at the smallness of the internal space. It's absolutely perfect for my Nikon D70, a couple of lenses, and the odds and ends that go with it, but if I throw in my backup film Nikon body things get very, very crowded. No way of adding my video camera without taking out the padded insert.
Overall, I love it and believe I made the best possible choice from the plethora of bags available.
