Slope medium ICU
Good experience. Super after sale service. My precedent was broken and f stop sent me a new one for free. The ICU is not always easy to open in the backlog AJNA 40L

You’ve to know what you want
Slope Medium and Shallow Medium are perfect for f-stop Kashimir backpacks. If you want to take an 14“ Notebook with you in that backpack, it don’t fit with the Slope ICU - only with the Shallow …

Best ICU for short day hikes!
I am super happy with the medium slop ICU as it gives the best of both world for my short day hikes or my trips to the city. I can fit two Canon EOS R5 and 2 to 3 lenses with spare batteries, memory cards. I love how easy every f-stop ICUs are to configure thanks to the fact that we can setup the dividers anywhere. This ICU fits perfectly inside a Kashmir Air as shown in the pictures I shared.

Excellent ICU (shallow medium) but very uncomfortable bag (Guru 25L)
I bought the Guru bundled with the shallow medium ICU. The ICU is great, I can fit a mirrorless Sony body + about 4 lenses and some accessories. The Guru bag, well, that's a different story. I do like that the design allows to pack a ton of stuff. All that photo gear, plus a laptop, some clothes, and more. The problem is that the bag is very uncomfortable. The center of mass is at the bottom where the photo gear sits and therefore the bag sits low and heavy at the bottom. In addition, the shoulder straps are awful (thin and uncomfortable); I complained to F-stop and their answer was incredibly short and pointless. I had to buy some extra padding on Amazon, but now the bag looks like a contraption. On top of all this, the waist strap is not removable and not adjustable for torso size. I have short torso (male) and if I use the waist strap I get an awful back pain. In summary, when I received the bag it all looked great, but after a few long trips including flights and hiking, I cannot recommend this bag.

Amazing First Impression! I Sized Wrong
The build quality of the two bags I selected was impeccable! I was quite impressed as soon as I removed them from the shipping box. The only issue I had (my fault not f-stop's) was that I underestimated the size of the bags I would need and thus had to return to size up. That said, even that process was seamless and a breeze. f-stop has my backing!

Compact, soft inside, tough outside
I use this with Lotus4 Core. Its roomy enough to hold two bodies (Sony A7-series) with three to four lenses (16-35, 24-105, 70-200, 14mm). Straps with velcros on the ending keeps stuff in place. Recommended.

La ICU mas equilibrada !
Hola ! Después de 3 años de uso del Icu mediano en combinación con la Lotus 32 L , me animo a opinar sobre ello. Para usuarios de equipos mirrorless, creo es la combinación mas equilibrada para salidas de un dia o un fin de semana . En comparación con mi antigua mochila Lowerpro,este conjunto me aporta mejor confort y sobre todo el Icu me aporta mejor protección tanto para golpes, como para humedad. También la configuración interior del Icu es muy facil y aun después de 3 años, con un uso de al menos una salida al fin semana y en vacaciones, quitando un poco de pelusas, el Icu y las cremalleras estan como el primer dia. Mis dos configuración habituales son una para paisajes y macro : Sony A7III, Viltros 16 mm , Sony 16-35 f4 Carl Zeiss, Sony 85 mm 1.8 , Tamron 35 mm 2.8 ,Olympus Em 1 , Panasonic 35-100 mm 2.8 y Olympus 60 mm 2.8 macro y baterías. Para paisaje y fauna Sony A7III y el Sigma 100-400 DG DN , Sony 16-35 f4 Carl Zeiss, Sony 85 mm 1.8 , Tamron 35 mm 2.8 y filtros Haida 100x100. Con estas configuraciones tengo el 90% de mis salidas cubiertas. Para salidas de fotografía nocturna utilizo la primera configuración, eliminando algunas lentes y añadiendo calentadores de lentes y focos y linternas LED. Un saludo y espero que mi experiencia os pueda ayudar en vuestra elección! Hello ! After 3 years of using the medium Icu in combination with the Lotus 32 L, I dare to comment on it. For users of mirrorless equipment, I think it is the most balanced combination for day or weekend outings. Compared to my old Lowerpro backpack, this set gives me better comfort and, above all, the Icu gives me better protection both from bumps and humidity. Also the interior configuration of the Icu is very easy and even after 3 years, with use of at least one trip at the weekend and on vacation, removing a little lint, the Icu and the zippers are as good as the first day. My two usual configurations are one for landscapes and macro: Sony A7III, Viltros 16 mm, Sony 16-35 f4 Carl Zeiss, Sony 85 mm 1.8, Tamron 35 mm 2.8, Olympus Em 1, Panasonic 35-100 mm 2.8 and Olympus 60 mm 2.8 macro and batteries. For landscape and wildlife Sony A7III and the Sigma 100-400 DG DN, Sony 16-35 f4 Carl Zeiss, Sony 85 mm 1.8, Tamron 35 mm 2.8 and Haida 100x100 filters . With these configurations I have 90% of my outputs covered. For night photography outings I use the first configuration, eliminating some lenses and adding lens heaters and LED spotlights and flashlights. Greetings and I hope that my experience can help you in your choice!
