Customer Reviews
Eval of Canon "Professional gadget bag !EG
On the positive side, this is a generally well built bag. It protects its' contents. It carries well. It is priced lower than competitive bags. I did removed the tripod straps, because my tripods are too large to be safely attached.
In the end, only time will tell how well this bag is constructed.
Initially and on the negative side, while it advertises the ability to carry 2 bodies and 10-12 lenses, It is nearly full with one body attached to one of three zoom lenses with attached lens shades, one flash unit, one light meter and one Gary Fong light sphere and attachments (plus a few other odds and ends).
Personally, I prefer not to advertise that I'm carrying cameras and lenses, so I wish the Canon symbol were much more subdued or even removed.
I wish a large pocket in the bag could expand (unzip) as necessary like unto my last bag (Targus international Traveler, bought in 1991). I would still be using this bag, but Canon "L" series zoom lenses and sunshades are much more bulky than ATX lenses. I hope that helps.
nice bag, but doesn't hold anywhere near what it says
Its a nice bag if you don't have larger lenses. Its rated to hold 1-2 bodies and 7-10 lenses. I currently have a 40D/grip, 580EX II, 70-200 f/2.8L, 28-135IS, and then tamrons 28-70 2.8 and 17-35 lenses. thats full to the max. I contacted Canon to find out what lenses it was rated for, they considered the 17-35 lens even to be larger than what it was designed for. They designed it and rated it for two bodies, no grips, no external flashes, and the lenses are all small prime lenses like the 28, 24, and 50mm's. They couldnt list 10 different focal length lenses that would fit in the bag...so why do they say that? I had to special order this bag from my shop, so there are no returns, and Canon is sticking to their word that it holds what they say so they are doing anything about it either.
If you can live with the camera/grip, flash and 4 lenses, then its a great bag, but if you are getting it to hold anywhere near the gear its rated for, go with something else. If anyone wants mine, just email me...im selling it on here for cheap now.
What I expected
Lots of compartments. Big enough for a 40D and seveal lenses plus manuals and other trinkets. Quality constructon. Rugged. Was a toss-up between a backpack and this bag... Still thinking about the backpack.
