Overall Product Rating:

Great product. Would recommend.

Very soft, flexible, does not look like a camera bag.

Great Bag. Doesn't look like a camera bag. Holds a ton. great for travelers who take their camera out at the beginning of the day and leave it out all day.

I agree with everyone here - looks great and VERY lightweight. Especially like how it compresses so would carry this along with a hard case for my equipment, then load this up for the day. There is one particular quirk though that may bug you if you like to swap things out quickly -- it is darn near impossible to pull out the lower Full size DSLR (1DIII size) without first removing the top DSLR from it's handy pouch. The lenses are a bit easier, but this would be best for carrying things somewhere then pulling both bodies out, lenses up, and ready to shoot. For that this is IDEAL! Mine has 1DIII, 1DsIII, 70-200 f/2.8 IS, 24-105 f/4 IS, and 16-35 f/2.8 Plus 2 extra batteries, 2 580 lites and a pile of CF cards and other misc. things. Absolut

Love this bag ! It solved how to get my gear on the plane, to a shoot, and then onto my speed belt. I put all my gear in individual modular components. I have the following: Canon 5D Mark II and Pansonic Lumix Point and Shoot in the Chimp Cage Canon 70-200/2.8 in the Lens Changer 75 Canon 24-70/2.8 in the Lens Changer 35 Canon Speedlite 580 EX II on the Lightning Fast Wallet, GeoTec GPS datalogger, keys, etc. in All the Other Stuff I put in all in the Airport International after taking out the dividers. Then when I get to the site, I put all the gear in the modular components in the Shape Shifter along with my 17 inch MacBook Pro and Pro Speed belt. When I get to the site, I put all the modular components on the b

Great. Have tonnes of bags. Looked at simple Rucksack as solution but after lots of sole searching was bought this one. It is great. Better than dropping in to non custom rucksack. Bit expensive but discount to £175 made it just justifiable. Now selling all the rest. Crazy to ever use Urban 50 over shoulder way to heavy.

I use this in tandem with the Airport Airstream. I roll the Airstream through airports. I use the Shape Shifter as a backpack to carry my 17" MacBook Pro and other stuff. When I get to my destination I switch to the Shape Shifter. Best bag I own.

I've got many photo shoulder bags, rollers, backpacks, and this is the best one yet. Use it as a regular laptop bag when not shooting, but its very comfortable while shooting destination weddings, traveling, and even while hiking. I really like that its carry-on size and my TT skin belt does double duty on to it for hip support. Very light and low-key. I can't stand unnecessary padding and boxy look of typical photo packs. WAY better than any competitor backpacks.
