comp trek
not bad i use it when going to a location but if i am moving around it's a pain then i go to a bag or the belt. I hate taking the pack off and looking for the lens and then putting it back on the belt or bag i can grap a camera or lens and ready to go. i normally like to go with just two cameras hanging on me and nothing else.

I've got one and it is big enough to hold almost more than I can carry. It is a great pack.

I have a tamrac 5259, and it is all that I can do to carry the thing when I get it loaded. I like it though, because if I need to, I can carry just about everything that I own in that bag ( to include a change of socks and underwear if I pack right)

I have been very very happy with it, but I also like the Lowepro gear that I have had in the past as well.

Make sure that your laptop will actually fit in the pack if you want to carry it as well. I have a 17" screen and I tried a couple of different ones and my laptop didn't fit. It was bigger than the Mac GBook that it seems like the bagmakers are using as a reference. I've given up for now and gone to a separate bag for my laptop, but one that is on rollers so that when going through the airport and I can stick my camera bag on top and just roll everything.

I have the model that preceeded this, Super Trekker AW, and it is excellent. Meets carry-on requirements, at least it did for me. Carried two bodies, 500mmf/4, several other lenses, SB800, batteries, remote releases, etc to Alaska two years ago. I'm assuming that this newer model is basically the same size with some refinements. Although I have not seem this particular bag, I would recommend it based on my past experience with Lowe Pro.
