Lowepro Urban Photo Sling 250 Digital SLR Camera Case (Black) with Tripod + Accessory Kit for Canon

Here is the feedback at various levels -

1. Ordering & Shipping Easy to order(Thanks to Amazon); I ordered it on November 19, 2012 thru regular shipping (Not Prime) and was expecting it not before Nov. 30. I got it on Nov 24, 2012. Considering the holiday season I will give the shipping 10/10

2. Package and Handling Packaging was done in a sturdy card board box with sufficient cushioning of bubble wrap-around the kit. The Tripod was into the manufaturer's (Precision) box inside the big card board box safe and secure. Absolutely no issues on this too. 10/10

3. Inside the box The Lowepro 250 bag looks neat, compact and look like the pictures on item advertisement. The condition (& smell ;) ) of the bag tells its a brand new bag. I tested it by placing my Nikon D7K, 2 lenses, IPAD, Galaxy S-2, extra batteries (Camera & Phone), small notebook with Pen. All fit perfectly, I felt it a bit tight but probably with passage of time it will loosen up to acquire the shape of the objects. There are 2 side pockets, sufficient for a small (12 oz.) water bottle or maps etc. I did not try using those pockets at this point. Overall 8/10 for the bag in this price range.

4. I will surely be using this bag in next couple of months on my trips and will write back on how it held the ground. I will also put my feedback on the tripod and usefulness of the kit that came with this deal.
