Stratus 10

I love my tamrac status 615 shoulder bag and i carry my nikon d750 and 4 lenses with my flash, flash meter and other ods and ends. I have the stratus 608 and my wife carry's a stratus 608. Good job of protecting my equipment. I say thanx to tamrac for a nice bag.

As a long-time fan of Tamrac products I must say; Sadly, as a photographer, I am disappointed in the new Stratus line of Tamrac shoulder bags. They offer less pockets and pouches to put things in - the quality has dropped and the NO. system on the bags is dissipative! I still have the No. 12 and No. 8 bag from the Pro Series. By comparison, the Old Pro 8 bag is the same size and offers more pouches & pockets than the New Stratus 10, for half the price! - - - Having said this, I still believe Tamrac is the best product on the market but - is now - highly over priced! I hope they will consider bringing back the features that made the Tamrac Camera Bags so special for Photographers like me.

Good replacement bag, I am a serious amateur and like the room it provides. I bought a stratus 8.

My other bag is a TENBA, this bag looks as well built and thoughtfully designed. I don't know the purpose of the two loops on the outside of the bag. I like this bag and hope to get a lot of good use out of it.

Great product. This is my 14th bag and love them all. I have many different sizes for the occasion and these bags just do not wear out. I've tried others but none were as good as Tamrac!

great bag for my Hasselblads and lenses...very well made and everything in its place.

My wife just got me this bag for my birthday because I needed a larger bag. Perfect for everything I carry with room for more. I couldn't be happier.

I just got hands on Str. 21 and first thing what I've realised that bag is quite misbalanced because is "falling" towards front side. That's important for my job because is dynamic and I don't have a time to close the lead all the time, I just grab the bag for shoulder strap and change position to continue shooting. If I have to change lens I can not afford myself to open and close the bag each and every time. So it's crucial for bag to be good balanced otherwise I'm risking to brake my second camera or something else if fall out.

Laptop and some heavy things at front are not welcome in this bag because they will add some extra weight and more misbalance. Please check and try to do something with bag strap position which will solve this issue.

Per my opinion, bag should remain straight when empty, when is lifted for shoulder stripe or even if you plan to have pocket for laptop even to be leaned just a tiny little to backside.

Most of the time I'm using 70-200 mm lens on Canon camera with battery grip. You should check how many space you have to fit this camera in the bag. Maybe you should lower camera position for one inch optionally and give us a little bit more space for lens (U profile a little bit wider).

Pocket(s) from inside (on lead) per my opinion was much better on Pro 12. This one I can not use because camera is already over pressed with the lead so I cant fit anything in this big pocket.

I have been told that Stratus 21 its improved Pro 12 but now I have to use totally different logic to place things inside. This is not convenient because after many years is difficult to change habits and find what you need especially if is dark or you're in hurry. Professionals don't have a too much time for adaptation so it will be very appreciated if you follow our needs instead.

Quality of Stratus 21 I hope it will be same as Pro 12 which was the best camera bag ever.

Purchased this as a gift for my husband to replace a 25 year old Tamrac bag. This bag is quite different than his old one and he says he needs a larger bag so we will be returning this one while he looks locally for a hands on review of the larger model.

Lots of Pros to this bag, a few cons that are, quite frankly, puzzling and a deal breaker. The Pros are obvious; excellent build, quality hardware and strap. The Cons; Lens cradles are way too small for Pro Lenses, I have modified them with scissors, so it works, but I'm baffled by the poor design. What lenses are these supposed to fit? Also, the clear pocket in top of lid is difficult to get into and is not a useful shape or size, the trolley strap is too tight, the front buckles are an interesting design but difficult to use with one hand.

Bag is full of compartments, and well thought out. Many numerous velcro partitions to design and configure the bag to your own liking. Well made well stitched. Hope to have this a lifetime

My old Tamrac System series bag was really tattered. It had many years on it. My girlfriend also needed a new bag and she bought the System 13, just in time since the System series was subsequently discontinued. I really had no choice then but to buy the Stratus 15, which is of comparable size to my old one. I waited almost two months to get the bag because I preordered it. Needless to say, the excitement built. When I got it, it felt like Christmas came early, until I opened the box and examined the Stratus. It was a real let-down. I felt that the Stratus line was just an excuse for Tamrac to cut corners. The quality was crap compared to my previous bag and to my girlfriend's. The front clasps were fastened to the front pockets and really small which made it really inconvenient to connect and disconnect them; for wedding shoots every second counts. Not sure why that was done, but the previous connectors, which were attached to straps, are more accessible and of better quality. The padding of the bag is not as thick as the older bags and felt like it would not offer as good of protection to my expensive camera equipment PLUS, the side pockets are not padded anymore so there is less protection there too. The shoulder strap is thinner and its connector to the bag is plastic, not metal anymore. The zippers have tiny nylon loops to open and close, not the metal zipper pulls that were easier to grasp. Everything about this bag says "cheap", in comparison to the discontinued System line. I returned this bag and bought a used System one online for the same price, and although used, it was a way better deal. All-in-all, I was very disappointed.
