The photos on Amazon don't really give you an idea just how big a bag this is. I've got all my camera gear in there, five lenses, one Canon Digital Rebel, flash, and, in addition to my laptop, I also lug around a 300 GB external hard drive. As you might imagine, this thing gets a bit heafty to carry (not something you'd want on your back while hiking), and despite all the space to accommodate so much equipment, I still had to purchase some attachments for the one thing I think they didn't plan for when designing this bag -- power cords for your laptop. The laptop compartment is just big enough to squeeze in your laptop -- and that's it. As for protection, the bag is well padded and my camera, lenses, laptop, etc. all seem very secure. This is my second Tamrac bag, replacing a 20-year-old over-the-shoulder pro model, so I know Tamrac bags are durable, hold up to snow and rain, and keep your expensive equipment safe. Finally, I definitely like the backpack design.
