You can never have too many bags. I bought the complete kit mainly to get the smaller one for a new vintage lens. Perfect fit (but not tight). I am using these for more than lenses - for small electronics, batteries, etc. and the largest two fit different size bottles, too, as others have mentioned. Very useful and nicely made with soft, protective interior.

Lens covers are too small to accept lens hood.

These are the best of the Neoprene pouches I've tried so far - many of them highly rated.These get used exclusively for photo gear. I store everything from lenses to ball heads to rails to panning and leveling bases, clamps etc.I know my photo gear has got a good home - and a safe one. While I'd have to say many have the same drawstring and clip at the top, there are a couple of differences. What sets these apart at first glance is the deep purple fabric lip, double stitched on a nice, beefy neoprene body. What I really like about these however is all of the ones I've gotten elsewhere have a fabric interior, these have a plush liner. It's extra soft, and I wouldn't mind if glass were to make contact with it. If for some reason a containment got inside of it, this would act as an extra barrier as it most likely wouldn't sit on the surface as it would on plain fabric. Also, the soft liner doesn't shed, which could have been a potential problem. It's an excellent micro-material and feels just fantastic. I'd like a blanket made out of this stuff!BTW, I see a complaint about this interior shedding. I can tell you mine absolutely does not do this. From lenses to ball heads and clamps - all black and varying materials, there's no fibers of any sort. Typically, this sort of microfiber doesn't shed - and even when pulling on it I cannot get any to come off try as I might.Now, don't get the impression that the extra large one is going to fit your 70-200/2.8 IS lens with hood or collar. This should be pretty obvious from the sample photos. a 70-200/4 would probably fit with a hood, but not with IS. It would also fit a Tamron 70-300/4-5.6 VC with the hood on for use. I use it for my leveling bases and rotating clamps. I use the extra large one for a fairly large macro focusing rail. The large model fits my Tamron 70-300/4-5.6 VC perfectly, with hood reversed. The medium size is perfect for a ball head from a mid 40's up to mid 50's. It would also fit a normal sized prime lens. The small is small, and will fit small primes and classic primes.I hope that they come out with wider versions next. I would take all of my Canon L lenses out of the cheap leather socks they supply and put them in these things. Luckily, Sigma supplies excellent soft cases so I'm good there.To top it off there's a nice micro fiber cleaning cloth - you can never have too many of these things! Great for lenses, glasses and cleaning any of your photo gear. This one went into one of my camera bags.Pros:- inexpensive- good sizes- look nice- soft liner- nice micro fiber cleaning cloth- Guarantee: Altura Photo products are designed and manufactured to meet the highest industry standards of performance and quality. If for any reason you are not completely satisfied with any Altura Photo product we will take it back without questions or hassles.Cons- Need a wider seriesAll in all a great product - and this will be the one I buy again. If you've got standard sized primes and zooms (ie. EF-S and Sigma DC series) these will do just fine. If you've got big L lenses with stabilization, they're not wide enough. The photos they use for examples are spot-on, so use those for your guide. 5 stars.*** Update ***I've already ordered another set.I'm not at all convinced of the shedding issue, although I must say it worried me at first until I actually saw the material in person and used the cases.*** Update 11/15 ***I ordered the large 4 piece set, as I've acquired or been sent some gear for evaluation. I'm loving having all my clamps, rails, plates, heads etc. coddled in luxury. 2 New comments. 1) nothing eventful has happened with these - a few get used out in the field. 2) the latest batch is a very different purple color. The first were a deep, almost burgundy purple. The latest batch is lavender. Much closer to what is pictured (you can see my photos). The lining matches. So I suppose the only addition I have is that there seems to be some variation in batch-to-batch dye lots, but the quality seems identical. I'm actually fine with this, as it helps differentiate the contents.As I wound up with so many of these and keep them in drawers, I'm using colored Carabiner clips on these so I can quickly identify which one has what in it. Markable key tags on key rings could also help. I've done something similar with my Canon lenses, as all the gray bags look pretty much identical!

These hold my lenses very nicely. My largest lens is a 300mm, which fit nicely in the 3rd largest pouch. I ended up not needing the largest pouch. My hip pack has places for water bottles, or I might use it for one--shoot, I still may as it is somewhat insulated! I attached these to my hip pack for easy access while walking around (strapping through the belt loop). The only one I had difficulties with was the smallest one. The area to run the strap through was less than 1", due to stabilization stitching about 1" from each end of the pouch. Fortunately, my hip pack had a narrow strap to secure the water bottles, so I was able to use that for it (otherwise it would NOT go through the waist strap as the others did). I was somewhat panicking until I figured this out. The 2nd largest was close, but with some wiggling, it made it. The 3rd, not a problem--plenty of clearance.I found the easiest way to include the lens hood was to insert it in sideways. Once past the opening, then rotate it around flat so it "cups" the lens. Then simply drop the lens in and pull the top shut.This system works very well. Previously I used a camera bag and was constantly juggling stuff around. Now everything is secure on my hip pack, I can swap lenses much easier as they are very accessible.

These are perfect. For Canon users, this is how it works, 50mm, 85mm, or even 100mm non L series will probably fit in the small one. I put the 50mm 1.8 in the small one. The 100mm F/2 in the medium one, with lens hood attached. The 24-105 with lens hood attached goes into the large one. The 24-70 2.8L, either version, also goes into the large one. Meaning for me, I had to order an another large one separate. These fit in my regular camera bag very well. However, my main reason for them is hiking and Landscape. If you get these, you can put them in your day pack, you won't need a camera bag. You can make any backpack a camera bag with these and something for your camera. If you have a full frame camera with a battery grip, I'd recommend the LowePro Top Loader 75AW, it has a rain coat on it, you can use it on it's own or it will attach to a book bag or you can put it inside a book bag.As far as the EXTRA large, that's for the 70-200 guys to figure out, I don't really do zoom lenses as I'm mostly a Landscaper. I do portraits with primes. However, I was able to fit my Sony AX100 4k camcorder with an extended battery on it into the extra large one. If you look at the Sony AX100, you will notice, it is not one of those real small handy cams that you see. It's more of a prosumer item, full manual controls, ND filters, etc. So it's bigger than the typical camcorder you see someone with, it still fit nice and snug in the biggest one, which then went in my camera bag as well. Most camera bags have the velcro that come lose, your lenses get banged around in there a lot more than you realize they do. If someone throws them on the rails at the airport they can break your lens, you could also just by backpacking all day with them jarring around, EVEN THOUGH, you think you have the velcro nice and snug in your camera bag. It's not as snug as you think.These are better for that reason, they still fit nicely into the camera bag slots. But they give you the ability to make any bag a camera bag. Maybe you just want to take a camera with a lens attached and on extra lens and not a big DSLR bag on a light trip or hike? DSLR goes in top loader, or if you have a smaller DSLR it can go in a case. Top loader comes with a shoulder strap though when it's not being used on a backpack, the 75W also has connections for an extra lens as long as the lens is in a case, like these. It attaches via the belt buckle or the clamps. The clamps will fit on D rings on book bags.I'm guessing these aren't waterproof, however, if they were to get rained on in a light rain while you had to travel to a dry area, I highly doubt the rain would get in these. I almost bought the ones with rain covers, I'm glad I didn't, as the padding is not as extreme as these, and honestly no rain is getting in there unless you just leave the lens out in a down pour. In most situations you would put it in your backpack or daypack if that happened. It allowed me to create a system where I can pick and choose what I carry and what bag very easily. You can use the large and extra large ones for other things too, like flash's, accessories, camcorders, lights. Even my full frame DSLR will probably fit in the extra large size, not with a lens or battery grip though.
