This bag is  perfect for my present needs, and even has room for another lens in the future.  In the  main compartment I have, assembled and ready to be used, the Canon T2i with  battery pack and 18-55 kit lens with lens hood.  I put the camera in its place holding the hand grip, which makes it easy to put the camera in the bag and pull it out.  Because the camera is fully assembled, all I need to do is turn it on and remove the lens cover and  it is ready for use.Also in the main compartment is the Canon 55-250 lens with lens hood attached.  The lens is positioned with the lens hood up.  The lens with hood is a fraction of an inch taller than the side of the  bag, but this does not  interfere with the closing of the bag or the use of the side pockets.  When the bag is closed, there is no way to tell that with the lens hood attached the 55-250 lens stands a little taller than the side of the main compartment.There is space left over in the main compartment for another lens, which because I have no other lens at present, I am using to hold a pair of glasses in a case.The 2 large, zippered storage compartments on the outside of the bag, plus the storage in the lid and on the front of the  bag, give me all the room that I need for SD cards, a reserve battery pack for the battery pack, cleaning supplies, a camera manual,Attached to the bottom of the bag are straps intended to attach a tripod to bottom of bag.  Initially I was put off by those straps and had scissors in hand to cut them off.  However, remembering that I have a cheap, light weight tripod in addition to my larger, heavier one, and also realizing that this would be a good place to  carry an umbrella when out of days when weather is questionable, I let the straps alone. Now that I realize that they can at least occasionally be of benefit to me, they no longer bother me.The  bag is well made and attractive and the padding and weather protection are satisfactory.
