@WilllCuk Ummm i use to, don't quote me on this but have a feeling that the AW plus is a much larger bag while the computrekker AW is a lot smaller. both have an rain cover, great idea in theory but the practicality and usability is something quite finikey.
@aaronc608 that is true, and ther is no what that i would be lugging this thing around on an all day shoot, it either live in car of if im on remote location break it down into esestials or give it to the assistant to lug. This video is just to show what you can fit in the bag, this is a large bag that most people buy to have all/most of there gear in on place but, being a big bag practicality in confined or long duration shoots is lowered.
@ciothioh1 The tripod holder has various stages. the stages are for the different size of tripods. my tripod in this video is a medium sized one so to maintain a bit of a better balance i use the higher pocket, also i have found if you use the lowest pocket, the tripod stick out below the bottom of the bag and if you were you place the bag down it would become uneven and topple over on the backrest/ shoulder straps.
This bag is nice,it's quite big,it can load a lot of lenses/dslr bodies/flashes and stuff like that.I'm thinking of changing my Caselogic SLRC4 with this big.
hi. I was wondering if this bag would fit all my stuff. now i know, thanks! :) on a sidenote, what do you use for holding the rosco strobist gel kit? i currently just have them in the box they arrived in. not good in the long run hehe
@Urbanthor Sticky tape, not the most elegant of solutions but it works, if i end up using the omni-bounce, then i place the gels ontop of the flash head and fit the omni-bouce on, that way the difuser hold the gel in place.

Sorry bout that, Both cameras are gripped with a battery grip, with something like the K20D it's around about a 14x14cm sqare and 7.5cm deep (bout the same size as a 30/40/50D but a bit smaller than a 1D)
Oh yeh cool, thanks, I ended buying onbe from ebay anyway, Ive got a gripped 50D just bought a 150mm2.8sigma and a MT-24EX Twinlight flash so it needs to fit them in their bags and a 17-40, and a few diffusers and stuff, great vid too btw, I wanted to see how the laptop cord fitted, and it fits easily, thanks.
1: I guess this is a mixed question of comfort and weight. as far as comfort is concerned, this comformtable, verry comfortable, but you do not want to buy this bag and use it for a hike straight away, bags like these are kinda like hiking shoes, you need to slowly wear them in and adjust it accordingly. I've hiked through bush while it's been around 12kg with no problem, just set it up right and you'll be right.
2: yes this is carry-on legal. that is as far as size is concerned, but just don't let on that it weighs a ton. I have carried it on with no problem on large commerical planes but for smaller planes ie. regional plans you may have an issue. Best bet check with your airline first as each will have slightly different rules and check the TSA or equivilant for your country. any other questions feel free to shoot me a question.
I wish these bags were better made. Sturdier, made to last. The foam and nylon used is very lightweight. Listening Lowepro? Do you care?

Will this bag feel uncomfortable with a 14" laptop, since the laptop is smaller than the back sice? I saw a 15.6" fitted perfect.

Looks like a great bag, just wondering if you knew the difference between the AW and the AW Plus?

I have the same bag and must say you somewhat misused the tripod holder. Lower part flips down one more time before you put a tripod legs in.

when you mention at the start, its 'gripped' do you mean the camera has a battery grip attached?
