Snappers

Hi all,
After quite a bit of looking, I finally took the plunge and purchased my new Photo bag/rucksack.
My old camera bag was not big enough to carry all I wanted to carry and therefore I went for the Rucksack version.
I thought I would give a little description of it here as I know a few other people are looking for a new bag to hold their kit in.
The bag itself is made from Duratex-nylon. It feels very sturdy and has two rubber feet on the base of the rucksack. The zips are all covered by material to avoid water getting in. The bag does not say it is waterproof but I will spray it with some fabsil (waterproofer) just to be on the safe side.
On the outside of the bag, at the front there are two large pockets for storing perhaps a notebook or somthing like that.

In the top half of the bag you have three compartments which are divided by an ajustable strap in the middle.

The base of the bag has 5 compartments again all ajustable so you can have the compartments the size you want them. You also have a pocket with a mess lining at the top like you have in normal camera bags.

As you can see from the following photo, the base of the upper part of the bag can be zipped open from the bottom part if you understand what I mean so you can assess the top part of the bag from either the top or the bottom.

Finally, on the side of the bag you have two straps for holding a tripod or other device you may wish to place there.

I am very happy with this bag, It seems very functional with all it's pockets etc but at the same time seem to be very well made too. It only cost me £13.74 in total, so I feel I have had a bargin there.:)
Hope you like my little review on this rucksack.
