It is a little bit taller and little longer than a Domke 803, and 
therefore fits a *slightly* greater volume of gear. In fact, I switched 
out of my Domke 803 into this bag to see how it felt. I'm using four of 
the same inserts that the 803 uses (it, of course, uses up to three). So 
you wind up with an extra insert versus the 803. I love the 803, but it 
has gotten a bit "dense" as I've loaded it up further and further. The 
addition of the 15mm Heliar and finder was the proverbial straw that 
broke the camel's back ;-). I really like the second strap that all the 
messenger bags seem to have. Wonder what took so long for someone to 
invent something so simple...
