Safrotto bag arrived

[JoeFriday]

I went home for lunch today and the Safrotto bag was waiting for me, as I expected.. I didn't have much time to check it out, but this is my first impression

it's fairly large.. easily the same size (or larger) than my laptop case.. and it's canvas.. I was expecting nylon.. not that it matters.. but the canvas would give very good protection in inclement weather

there are many removable dividers.. going in both directions.. I'm guessing you could remove all the dividers and have one large bay for anything you'd like to carry.. or put the dividers in using whatever configuration works for you

it holds my laptop (15" Powerbook) fairly easily, but there's a strong likelihood that the velcro strips inside would scratch the laptop.. I'll have to examine that closer

the two external pockets will expand to a fairly large size.. there's about twice as much room in this thing as I was expecting

it also included a pad for the strap.. I thought the auction said that was extra.. doesn't matter to me either way

it doesn't look at all to me like a camera bag.. it looks like an attache, which is fine.. or like a laptop case

here's the pics from the auction, for quick reference

That looks pretty nice. Let me know what happens w/ the laptop.

AFAIK Safrotto include shoulder pads with most of their bags. My CF700 came with one...
