Pros:
well padded for peotection
Cons:
small for certain purposes
I carry an olympus E500, with attached 14-54/2.8-3.5, 50-200/2.8-3.5 on one side, and FL36 on the other side. After this I am left with small space to fit the EC14 and EX25. Along with the flash I can squeeze in a polariser. The front pockets and the inside pockets carry the 2 extra blm-01 battery, 3-4 AA battery, 3-4 CF cards, 1-2 manuals or documents (I carry DOF charts).
If this is the equipment you want to carry, this is the bag for you, otherwise search a bigger one. I use it for one day shooting or specific places where I only need 2 lenses. For more gear I use the mountainsmith Quantum and I like it very much.
