Excellent EDC for my Nikon Z50 kit
I like Peak Design and their products as they are thoughtfully designed and well made, and their prices reflect that. I carry my Nikon Z50 with both the 16-50mm and 50-100mm lenses (with either attached they still all fit) with me just about everywhere I go, and the other pockets stash away memory cards, batteries, tools, etc. What's nice about my Z50 is that I can charge the battery in-camera with just a cord, so I don't need to carry a bulky charging brick the size of an UNO deck. I know some people complain about that if storing that brick in the front pocket as it would be a tight fit and protrude out, but I guess I don't have that problem. I keep my phone and AirPods in that front case.I like to use this bag mainly as a fanny pack but will occasionally sling it across my body. The strap does tuck away into the bag when used as a waist pack, but it's a bit cumbersome to tuck the straps away if you accidentally pull it out, which is really my ONLY complaint about this bag. But that's it, everything else is great! I don't use the advertised strap to mount my Capture Clip, where some users complain that they can't freely open the zipper when mounted there. When I'm wearing the sling I just put the camera away inside the zippered compartment when I'm not using it. I use the Capture Clip on my backpack straps to keep my camera handy but I don't use the Sling and backpack at the same time.This pack looks and feels like a proper, but bigger, fanny pack, and I like how discreet it looks as it doesn't scream "EXPENSIVE PHOTO GEAR INSIDE." I can wear it in front, back, side, or slung over my shoulder, but my wife makes fun of me when I do that, calling the Sling my purse. This bag goes everywhere with me, at least in the car, and can easily be packed in a larger backpack if needed. I tend to sling it around the headrest of my passenger seat for easy access whenever I go out.The strap tightens easily and is fairly sturdy. I would feel very confident carrying this crossbody or waist style in an untrustworthy area as it would be difficult to quickly cut the straps and someone trying to yank it off me would likely not be able to break any of the hardware securing the straps.I thought about buying the bigger versions for when I bring other lenses but decided that this was the perfect size for EDC after using it for a few months now. I haven't taken it on any trips or vacation yet, just some street and local photography, as well as some indoor middle school sporting events. It's expensive, but I think it's worth every penny paid.Keep in mind that my Z50 is mirrorless, and has a smaller profile than traditional DSLRs. Closing the zipper is an EXACT fit in multiple configurations (Body + 50-200, 16-50 in divider; Body + 16-50, 50-200 in divider), and even so, I have to be deliberate in how I place it, but that's okay because I like to have the camera gear snug to prevent any damage during activity. The bag is well padded and I am confident in its protection ability. I don't ever have to move the divider regardless of what lens is on the body, just tweak the flex fold divider petals and it's all set.Highly recommended.

Stunning in true Peak Design fashion
Peak Design is known for their impeccably styled product line. This fits perfectly into their lineup of camera bags. It is stylish and well padded to protect your camera while on the go.The strap can be adjusted to be used as a waist pack or as a shoulder sling. It sports a padded area of the strap to prevent it from rubbing against your neck. There is a convenient carry handle on top as well. Included are two straps that attach to the bottom to carry a tripod with you. I noticed that my tripod had a little extra give than I would prefer when attached, but I am assuming if you had the Peak Design tripod this wouldn't be an issue. The fabric appears to be at least water resistant, with thick zippers for the two compartments.Inside there is one divider that is origami style in that it can be folded to meet your individual needs. I found I could fit my mirrorless body with one medium length lens attached plus two extra batteries in the main compartment, or if I detached the lens I could fit one medium length and one short prime lens in with the body by folding the divider differently. If you have a cage attached to your camera body, things will be considerably tighter. I would recommend removing the divider completely and sticking to one lens for a secure fit that isn't crammed in.As with all Peak Design products, this is a pricey bag. Depending on your needs though this may be worth the extra money, as it is made extremely well and offers some unique features not commonly found in 3L bags.

One of the best
The best bag for cameras, period.

Upgrade from AER sling
I was abroad for over 2 months with my everyday AER sling bag carry and realized it was too small for the things I wanted to carry. I always try to carry minimal but always have in the back of my mind 'what if' scenarios. This bag can easily fit my passport/wallet/phone/charger/sanitizer/tissue/wetwipes. The sling design and how it opens up also makes it very easy to sling to your chest and open and then sling back to your back. The bag also maintains its shape even when empty so thats a plus. The strap adjuster is also amazing and easy.

Overall excellent choice
Nice size, excellent workmanship, quality materials. Only complaint is the strap is more complicated than I would prefer

Lives up to its "everyday" name
Good design. I put my Fujifilm x100 in it most of the time, perfect size. I occasionally put my Sony A74 with some zoom attached, also good fit but strictly no second lens. Quality wise top notch.

Small, but good quality.
Honestly its a good quality bag, good protection and quality. On the small side though and minimalist, with not much room for anything extra. If you dont mind carrying your camera, you can get about 3 lenses inside. I can fit my Olypmus Em1.3 body with 12-40mmPro and 40-150Pro and thats it. A little disappointed that there wasnt another space for cash or documents for traveling. But overall good quality
