Comments about Crumpler Karachi Outpost Backpack - SLR Camera Outfit, Medium to Large Camcorder Kit and 15" Laptop Computer with Accessories (Gun Metal Grey with Grey Accent):
Great for travel. I ordered my bag just in time and got it the day before I flew to Colorado for a shoot. I was able to pack my Nikons, 5 lenses, flash, macbook pro, cables, batteries, chargers, mouse, cards, iPad.... Basically all my essentials. The bag fit perfectly on the flight in the overhead bin, and it was nice to be able to throw it on my back and go. The design of the bag is very secure, and you don't have to worry about your gear getting abused because the bag is so well padded.

I have purchased various camera backpacks over the years, and find this one to be quite nice. It sits very comfortably on my back due to its sloping design. It feels a lot more comfortable than the Lowepro Dryzone series of backpacks, which gives me a feeling that it hangs off my back.
I specifically purchased this model because of its ability to hold a laptop along with my camera equipment. I don't really intend to hike with this backpack in the field, and principally purchased it to carry on airplanes and when traveling. Also, it is really easy to access the laptop for TSA security due to the design of this backpack.
The only con here is that due to its sloping design, there isn't a heck of a lot of space inside for accessories and filters. However, it does hold my laptop, DSLR with 3 lenses and flash.
In sum, if you are looking for a traveling backpack to hold your laptop and camera equipment, this is the best choice.

Very happy with this bag. Tons of room for my D300, 17" Gateway laptop, four lenses, eight memory cards and all the accessories for everything to go with. The padding is exceptionally comfortable. Going through airport security was easy too with the laptop being so easily acceptable.
