I already had a Jimmy Bo 700 Crumpler bag but found that I had to put it in a rucksack to accomodate the other things necessary for going on a photo expedition. Although the bag is quite large I would have liked to get a slightly larger one. Although the camera compartment is fairly large and adequately padded, I have a camera with grip, so the fit is perhaps a little too snug. I also have 2 small lenses that fit ok in the bottom and room for a larger lens in the upper compartment. In reality, the Jimmy Bo offers more space for the camera body and is easier to get the camera out for taking photos, but I really appreciate the extra space of the ruck sack.One problem I had with the sack was, although it is well constructed, the zip for the trap door panel through to the camera section was extremely difficult to zip back up once it had been opened. It took me over 10 minutes to work out how to zip it up! Part design issue and part having to find the correct method, it was extremely frustrating until I worked out that you need to hold the end of the zip material from below in order to close the zip. Anyone with larger hands may find this even more difficult than me.I really like the attention to detail in the pockets and layout of the bag, the laptop pouch and the rain cover. The quality is great and I have not been disappointed with Crumpler so far. One minor issue is that you would hope on a good expensive camera bag that there would be somewhere logical to place a tripod, either loops or clips or something to keep one on the outside of the bag. The Easy Weasy does not have anything obvious but you could possibly attach one somehow! However, it would have been nicer if they had designed the bag with a tripod in mind.Nevertheless, I know this will be able to accommodate my growing camera gear and keep it all safe while cycling or taking a flight.

The Easy Weasy is a great all-round backpack taking in my Macbook Air (fits perfectly in the designed sleeve) and almost anything else.It feels great on the back, way better than my previous Booq Boa, and although smaller is better organised and accessible.For the camera compartment (which can be completely removed to create a huge space) bear in mind that it fits either a DSLR with a lens attached or a DSLR + 2 separate lenses (none attached!), which is a bit of a pain for me. Anyway - the camera space is a bit more squeezed that in seems at first hand.

After using a Crumpler Messenger Boy 4000 for the last few years, I was starting to need more space due to switching from a micro four-thirds camera to a DSLR. As I'd loved the messenger boy bag so much I decided to go for a Crumpler bag once again. They're such good quality, look really sleek and stylish compared to most other photography brands, and when you can pick them up for this price (£50 at time of purchase) then they're well worth it! Being female, I also wanted a bag that didn't look too masculine and boringly black, like many on the market are. It seems like the photography companies are really missing a market there!I found that although my DSLR equipment (Canon 600D, Sigma 10-20mm, Nifty Fifty, Kit lens, Filters, etc.) still fit in my previous bag, there wasn't much space for anything else and after upgrading from 85mm filters to 100mm filters I really needed extra space for them, plus personal items such as money, gloves, phone, etc. This bag quite happily fits all of that, plus more, with the cleverly hidden compartment at the back providing space for a laptop, books or tablet. With my current kit I can fit my DSLR with Sigma 10-20mm lens fitted in one half of the camera compartment, then the other two lenses in the other half. They're safely separated using the supplied dividers. I'm using the top compartment to fit everything else in, such as personal items and camera accessories (filters, etc.). I've been out with it on a couple of trips already and it's great for a day out - very comfortable to wear and easy to access on the go.I'm so happy with it that I thought I'd add some extra photos to the product description, because the current image didn't show anything about the insides of the bag! The photos show what the compartments are like and suggestions for what they can hold. Hope that they help others make the right decision :-)
