It looks fine for storing equipment at home or in the boot of a car but looks totally impractical for use in the field. I prefer something like the Billingham bags, I have four, all different sizes depending on the type of cameras I'm carrying and/or the quantity. Top loading reporter style bags, other brands have similar.
Luckily they make bags for different needs. I have no use for being in "the field", im not a pro, i don't take long treks in the mountains where i need to swap lenses ever 45 seconds. When i go out shooting, i usually pick one lens and go shoot.
So how do you protect your one camera and one lens when you are doing that?
It stays in my hand. I have a wrist strap, if need be i have a sling strap. Im a hobbiest, i don't spend 10 hours in the field, my photography experience isn't like that. I realize some people shoot like that and want different bags ect, it would be nice if those people realized there those of us who don't. All it takes is a peek outside one's bubble.
If you hadn't announced "one bag to rule them all", then perhaps there would have been a different response? Because clearly it isn't. I have several types of bags from a holster type to a large carryall, all depending on where or what I'm shooting and I don't think I've ever spent ten hours out in the field in my life. It's flexibility I require.
Well that bridge has been crossed and the announcement stands. And is valid.
