Bought this for my Canon 40D and 17-85mm IS lens, fits perfectly either lens in first, LCD screen first or camera in sideways. I find the last one best as I can pull the camera out and the handhold and shutter release is immediately in the right place; this also gives enough space to roll up the shoulder strap. Space for a spare battery or two, two memory cards (the 40D uses Compact Flash), and probably a couple more small things as well. But dont expect to get any more in, this bag is for a dSLR and small/medium zoom lens.
Well padded, and decent zips providing a large opening. The rain cover had me fooled for a few hours though; it is tucked away and the manual didn't make it clear what and where it is. The cover comes out and protects all of the bag but not the back; can be a bit fiddly to get on and off especially as the loops for the strap have to go through holes in it. That said, it's perfectly up to the job of keeping probably a £1000 worth of camera dry when you get caught in the rain.
If using the camera a lot whilst walking about, I got into the habit of unzipping the top most of the way, then the camera (whose shoulder strap is also around my neck) sits neatly just in the bag but readily available; at least then there's two straps taking the weight and the padding of the bag protecting the camera and lens. I hardly notice the camera is there sometimes.
An excellant buy and highly recommended. I bought this at a high street shop as needed in a hurry, but did pay (a fair bit) more than Amazon are selling it for. At Amazon's price its a bargain.
Update: the AW suffix shouldn't be taken to mean 'ALL' weather. After walking for three hours in constant rain (isn't the Lake District lovely in spring/summer?!) the inside gets wet/damp and this does transfer to the camera. The lack of plastic cover for the back as previously stated may affect this further. This bag therefore isn't completely weatherproof but would be perfectly okay for short showers etc. If you want a waterproof bag for all weathers then perhaps this isn't quite up to the job and the hard plastic type with seals should be considered. That said, if you appreciate the bag's limits then it's still a top class item that is well capable of protecting £1k of camera and lens.

This bag fits a Nikon D40 in comfortably, with about 2 inches to spare at the top and room for 2 spare memory cards and a filter or two. It's light and comfortable to wear, and the rain cover is a plus - stops the rain water seeping in through the zips which can be a problem on other camera bags. My camera survived a hail storm quite dry and snuggly in this bag with the cover on. Opening at the top makes the camera easy to access and put away. So far I haven't come across any negatives.

I purchased this bag online so was unable to test the fit with my Fujifilm S9600. Luckily it fits like a glove. I was looking at the Apex 110AW also but the 120 is a little longer which means it'll take the camera with the lens hood in place. I can fit in a all the associated cables, spare batteries and the battery charger without it all rattling around like they would in a much bigger bag.
The build quality is superb, padding seems good and there is a microfibre cloth built in to protect delicate lcd displays on the back of your camera. The easily deployed (and easy to stash) rain cover will protect your camera and case from the elements.
All in all I am very impressed. Size was important to me as I wanted all my stuff in one place but I wanted a bag small enough I wouldn't be put off taking it to places. Although the S9600 isn't a digital SLR it is very similar in size so I can see this bag being perfect for your EOS 400D, or similar, with a reasonably sized zoom lense attached.

Great bag!
I wanted a compact bag to take my D5000 on short walks. I have a larger bag but it is a bit bulky for everyday use. This bag feel really well made and there is plenty of space. Read more
