Greetings Keith, I've used the same LowePro bag for over 18 years. I finally wore out the foam padding on the bottom of the bag, but easily replaced that. The rest of the bag has held up very well. I've carried a variety of equipment, including (at the same time) a Nikon N90s, a Mamiya TLR, 80-200/f2.8, 85/f1.8, 24/f3.5, 180/f4 (for the Mamiya), 80/f2.8 (for the Mamiya), assorted filters, flash units, film, etc. (talk about one heavy bag!). I've also carried two 35mm bodies & assorted lenses, etc. My only complaint is that since the bag was made so long ago, it doesn't have some of the neat features of the newer bags. But, rather than replace this bag, I'll add other bags that fit specific needs. My advice...be sure to look at the bag before buying it. I bought a smaller, "fanny pack" style bag without seeing it first (mail order). It turns out that it really doesn't work well for me & my equipment. Now, it sits on a shelf collecting dust most of the time.
