Pros:	Everything!
Cons:	Not a single one

The best every day use backpack I've ever tried. The construction is flawless and the design really, really clever once you get to terms with it. It holds a lot of gear and the front pocket is also quite spacious, allowing you to bring all sorts of extra bits and bobs with you. To work out of the bag is very simple, just turn it around and open it up and you can change lenses, housings etc on the fly. Very nice bag indeed.
