I liked it so much I am planning to buy the bigger Tamrac (adventure 10?) for longer hiking trips.

The only negative that I’d say about this was that it didn’t come with any tie-down straps. I had to purchase these (bought 2 from REI for $5)…this one oversight is the only thing I can see wrong with this bag.
Customer Review: A great, almost perfect, “in between” backpack
It’s In between a large and small pack. That’s what I wanted. I sought long and hard for this kind of camera bag. Most backpacks look like Lego Space Men rocket packs, and others were too small, and still others were too big. I wanted a comfortable size, and this is certainly it. It fits all my lenses, my 20D with battery grip, memory cards, cleaning accessories, batteries, chargers, and safely too. AND still has room for a big lunch, some water bottles, and diapers and wipes for my kid. It’s very efficient with space. It’s not as big as the Adventure 10, and not as small as the Adventure 8… go figure. It looks, and fits like a REAL backpack and not a box with straps. It’s versatile and has a nice profile. The compartments work well to keep things safe. My only complaint is some of my lenses feel a little too snug in their compartments… may just be me needing to rearrange things, but it’s still keeps them cushioned and safe. A good backpack for a day hike and light traveling.
