Review text:
 I was looking for a bag that can hold my dSLR gear and my video camera and the SlingShot 200AW is that bag. 
 It holds all of my photo gear and video gear with room to spare for more lenses or chargers.  Access to equipment is quick and easy, taking about 3 seconds to slide the back down to your left side, open the pocket, and pull out whatever you need.  I re-configured the dividers so everything can be accessed from the side-sling position and there is no reason to ever have to set the back down to fully open the main pocket. 
LowePro should have shipped the bag in this configuration in the first place.  I've worn the bag fully loaded as described for about 5 hours at Seaworld and it was pretty comfortable.  It would slightly tilt at an angle on my back at times so I would have to re-adjust it.

Likes about the bag:
Good weight distribution across the back, durable, holds a lot of gear, extremely quick access, include rain cover which stows hidden between main compartment and back of bag

Dislikes about the bag:
Shoulder strap is not padded further down.  This cannot be done in order to accommodate taller people, so I will add my own padding.  Wish rain cover would be detached

(Added 3rd Sept 2008)

Equipment list in bag :

Nikon D80 + Nikon 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6G ED-IF AF-S VR w/hood
Nikon AF-S 55-200mm f/4.0-5.6G IF-ED DX VR  w/hood
Nikon 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G AF-S VR DX
Nikon 50mm f/1.8D
Filters, wide angle lens



Looking for a compact on-the-go bag that fits the D80 and mounted 70-300mm lens? Here's your boy! Lots of space, easy to customize for lots of applications. Top pocket (left in picture) big enough to store another body or flashes.

The pull out microfiber cover for the lcd screen is a nice addition.
 

Likes about the bag:
Easy to carry, quick access, plenty of room

Dislikes about the bag:
Bottom 2 dividers (right in picture) are partially obscured by bag
