  Mediocre bag for the price October 31, 2008 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
There is nothing much to distinguish this bag from other mediocre bags. It is canvas, with little protection for your camera from even small bumps. Its just a bag, like any other cloth bag in which you might want to dump in stuff that needs carrying around but not protected from the minor bumps that happen in daily life. The lid does not cover the entire top unless you take care to spread it out, the two catches are really hard and need two hands to open. A dusty breeze will get dust inside, a bit of rain soaks the canvas (unless you spend time and effort to waterproof it first), and if your bag bumps a door jamb on your way out the door, that shock goes straight to your camera with no shock being absorbed by any padding.
TO get it up to grade as a camera bag that protects as well as carries, you need to upgrade it with:
>water-repelling spray >inside padding for the camera >easier to open catches
Or you can just get a camera bag that already takes care of these basic requirements.
One of the big things that people mention is that the inner and outer dimensions are nearly the same. That is true. That is also true for a paper or plastic grocery bag.
  I'm amazed what I can fit in this thing... July 10, 2008 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
I love this bag. It really is the bridge between the bag that treats your equipment a little too preciously and the thrift store army satchel you can pick up for cheap. It doesn't scream "Hey, I'm a photographer," but it works incredibly well and looks good enough to carry darned near everywhere.
So what's in it? You have a good sized main compartment that comes with a velcro four compartment insert that you can move back and forth wherever you like. There's a zippered compartment under the lid flap (this is the least convenient to get to... I keep my emergency batteries and extra LCD screen protectors there). There's another zip pocket in the front (I keep film, extra memory cards, etc. there). There's also an open pocket in the back (for quick access... snack bars, magazines, a notepad, etc). This past weekend, I used it to lug along a medium format Twin Lens Reflex, a handheld meter, my dSLR, the kit lens, a 50mm lens, a 28mm lens, a teleextender, and five rolls of 120 film easily. The bag was a little heavy, but it was surprisingly comfortable.
Comfort really is the best selling point. The shoulder strap is embedded with veins of rubber, so it grips to your clothes. This takes a bit of getting used to, but the bag won't swing around on your shoulders while walking or biking. It just stays put. And it sits well on your hip... it will bend around you a little, since it isn't stiff. And the canvas feels well worn already. It feels like it's been used for years and just barely broken in.
All in all, this is the best camera bag I've had pretty much ever.
  Great, durable bag May 31, 2007 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
I bought the F-6 because it appeared to be a durable, functional camera bag, and it surpassed my expectations. Its tough shell has survived airports, car rides, snow, and daily wear and tear with not even a hint of stress and strain.
With a Canon 30D with battery pack, three lenses (two stacked), charger, filters, and a few other small tools, it's pretty well full inside. It's still able to carry a compact tripod tucked into the top, though.
The inside compartments are removable for flexibility, and other styles can be inserted. The size works well as a carry-on, as well.
The only negative is the brand name rather blatantly displayed on the outside. I'm not big on oversized branding, and it stands out a bit for my tastes. Small issue, though, on such a great product, which happens to be made in America (a definite rarity these days).
