Good evening. Is anyone familiar, own or use Ape brand camera back packs?
I am interested in the "Ape Case - ACPRO1900 Digital SLR and Laptop Backpack (Black" from B & H.
Thank you & don't forget to change the batteries in your Smoke Detectors & Carbon Monoxide Detectors when you change your clocks.

I am not familiar with it but I'm Very glad you posted it.
I use the Compudaypack, which meets my criteria except for one thing: it doesn't have a tripod holder.
The Ape specs look like it will also meet my criteria: fit under seat in front of me; hold a 7D, 5DII, 17-40, 24-105 and 100-400 plus laptop and the usual other stuff.
I'm going to order the Ape and give it a good look. Thanks again.

Lance I have been looking at it for a while now and over all it has good reviews and from what I can see B & H has the best price for it. I just wish I could locate some one that is familiar with it, because reading about it & seeing pictures of it on the web site can be a lot different then seeing it & using it. Maybe a trip to B& H is in order :-) but that will not be for a few weeks.
If you do get it please let me know how it is. Thank you.

Lance & anyone else interested I received my Ape Case - ACPRO1900 Digital SLR and Laptop Backpack tonight and it seems great. When you consider that I ordered it late Sunday evening from B & H and I received it today, to me that is great service.
The pack seems to be very well made. I was concerned about the zippers, but they seems to be quality. The case & shoulder straps are very well paded. I just have to move all my stuff into it from the old pack.
