Summary: As capacious as ...
Review: I bought the Tamrac 5608 Pro 8 because it easily holds holds two pro sized SLR bodies (Nikon F3s with short-ish lenses and the 8 AA battery powered MD4 motor drives attached) and 4 additional lenses, but its active career in my 'photo-arsenal' was short lived.My main gripe with this bag is with the seam used to join the bag to the main zipper (it isn't taped over and will lead to inevitable fraying and zipper jams) and the tripod holder is a complete joke (only good for the very lightest duty tripods). If you have a bunch of filters, you will need to get a wallet-style holder to hold them safely and securely. For the price, this bag is quite the bargain as comparable products will set you back at least twice as much - but in retrospect I think I should've shelled out more in the beginning. I ended up trading up to a LowePro backpack.

Summary: Not Good For Olympus E-10 Digital Cam and accessories
Review: I bought this for the E-10 and with some seriosly major adjusting I was able to fit everything in, tightly. I thought this bag that is supposed to hold 2 cameras would be able to hold my single E-10 comfortably but it didnt. Go with the back-pack bag from Tamrac here. It is much better and fits everything perfectly.

Summary: A Gear Bag that can take it!
Review: The Pro 8 is one tough cookie. My goal in finding a great gear bag was one that could hold 2 SLR bodies and 3-4 lenses, a flash and multiple other goodies. The bag had to hold it securely, be weather resistant and have top-notch foam padding. i.e. Built to last, so my camera gear would, too! I shoot in all seasons, even winter in Minnesota. I can slip one or two of those neat little "hand heater" pads into the bag in the winter and the INSULATING qualities of the Pro 8 keep the gear warm. The opposite is true in summer or when you must leave your gear in the car during warm days. A "cool pack" in one of the spare compartments does the trick for keeping things at a reasonable temperature for hours. The detachable film bag goes right from the fridge to the Pro 8 quickly, or detaches for inspection at airports in a snap. If you have one camera body and 1-2 lenses,use the extra space for lunch! The Pro 8 is worth every penny.

Summary: Roomy yet light.
Review: Well finished, balanced, beauty... a very very nice camera bag. I'm not fond of back-packs or kangaroo pouches for carrying my photo gear. I prefer the classic, standard, shoulder-hanged bag. I particularly feel this one as a very safe and rugged one.
You'll find enough space in it to accomodate bodies, lenses, flash, and several minor gadgets. Side-slip pocket is a real hit, very handy indeed.
