Just got this today, so I thought I'd post up some photos for anyone who might be thinking of getting one.
First of all, it seems comfortable just trying it on but I guess I can only tell once I've used it for a full day. You can adjust the strap lenth so it sits comfortably on your back. It's designed so you can only carry it on your back with the strap over your right shoulder. You can't swap it to the left shoulder if your right starts to ache.
The little compartment at the top is not going to be much use. You'll just about fit a can of Coke in there. I guess it'll be good for filters or a lens hood.
It's pretty small, but it's just the right size for me to take on a day trip. I'm able to fit my 350D with the 17-85mm attached as well as the 10-22mm and 70-300mm IS snugly. It won't fit the 350D with the 70-300mm attached.
The opening to access the camera is on the side so you can just pull/slide it from your back to the front and take the camera out without having to remove the bag from your body. There's also a pocket sewn into the flap for you to put extra memory cards or whatever that might fit in there.
There is some "headroom" left so it might just fit the 350D with battery grip attached (maybe!).(Edit: Having looked at Bachs' review of the BG-E3 battery grip here, it looks highly unlikely it will fit with the grip attached.)
There are two buckles on the front to the side where the camera compartment opens to prevent the compartment flap from opening fully accidentally and allow the contents to spill out when you are accessing this strapped across the front. Pretty smart!
