Default Lowepro CompuDayPack: any feedback?

Hi everyone,

I'm looking for a backpack that can take a laptop + camera body and 1 lens attached + 1 more lens + flash. And also documents! It's basically for business trips where I would like to put everything in one pack.

Anyone has any feedback on this backpack?

I have two concerns:-
1. AW - not available => can buy aftermarket bag covers from outdoor shops?
2. tripod holder - not available => any accessories available?
3. waist strap - not available

Initially considered CompuRover and CompuTrekker but found out they're too bulky and overly-padded. Not a good move to bring to the office!

Comments ... please.

Have one and find it not too big and heavy. Fit my 350D with Tamron 11-18mm and grip attached, 430EX flash and Tamron 18-200mm. The notebook compartment is used only when travelling oversea otherwise used mainly for documents and magazines. The drypac section is used for storing all other accesories (spare batteries, charger, etc.) and also my jacket when travelling. No regret as I also use it as my daily backpack. But when I'm oversea, I always leave my Compudaypac in the hotel and use my Tamrac sling when walking around as I find it easier and smaller.

Try the Lowepro Stealth AW II. low profile, very good padding for laptop, space for 2 camera bodies and three lenses.

i have this one.. suits my needs when i travel. have to say it doesnt have much padding for the lenses, and it doesnt have any external straps to secure a tripod. but this bag is really roomy. can even put my sweater and a book. comes with AW cover too.

the camera compartment is good for a body and 2 lens, while the upper compartment is pretty roomy for all barangs, and ur laptop. Not as bulky as those bigger bags. Dont worry abt AW cover, this bag's material is able to withstand most downpours, worse come to worst carry an umbrella along and you werent get wet too.

I have a Deuter backpack, which can hold my laptop and Lowepro Photo
Runner which carries 350D and two big lens. Still got space for a backup
t-shirt. Only that the backpack has no rain cover.

Just bought mine. I think is a great bag.. to put DSL camera , Laptop ,Mp3 and still have some space to put other things.
Its also light and doesn't look bulky!
For everyday use or travel I think this is the best backpack at this moment of time.
