Has anyone used this or heard any good/bad reviews of it? It seems legit, and it's only 40 bucks.

Backpacks you don't really wanna cheap out on (especially photo bags) The zippers will stop zipping and the seams will start to teat under the weight of you equipment. The main thing you have to look at is what your going to be putting in the bag?

Lighter/cheaper eq it would probably be good. But if you lugging around 2k worth of cameras, lenses and a tripod. You might want to look at something like the dakine mission photo or sequence

F-stop is defiantly some of the best bags I have used for sure when you have the money pick one up.

I have the F-Stop Satori and a Loka and I love them both but the Tilopia BC is the way to go unless you have massive amounts of stuff to travel with like me. I use the Loka as my strobe pack mostly but I try to fly with it because it fits overhead and black is more low key than my big red Satori

So true. The Tilopa carries nicer than any pack I've used period. I mean any ski pack, not just any camera pack. Keep saving up until winter and pick up a used one on Nikonians or something, they come up from time to time.

That's the old Tilopa, the middle sized one. Tilopa with a medium block inside is the best for space I think (gives you room for other stuff) but the Loka is smaller and fits the same blocks. Dan Carr posts good shots of all the bags and blocks on his blog.
