Well constructed and worth the price
I have other Tendba bags and was ready for an update.. I don't use air travel a lot but when I do I need a convenient way to transport my camera gear. I prefer not to check or place in overhead compartments. I would rather stow it under the seat. However, I also wanted the larger bag for non air travel. I found the Roadie Roller 18 and 21 and purchased both from Amazon. The bags are very well constructed with zipper locks and a cable lock with padlock as well as the ability to configure the main compartment. The Roadie 21 has a removable section you can use with the additional BYOD 10 packlite travel bag. I shoot with a Canon 1DX and a Canon 7D Mark II with a batter grip. I can place both cameras with my larger lenses 70-200 IS 2.8 L and a 100-400 IS 4.5 L in the Roadie 21 with space to spare. However with the Roadie 18 I am limited to one or the other camera lying flat and then I can carry one of my larger lenses along with another L lense. I also have space to spare for filters, extra batteries etc. I also use a more portable tripod for travel with my full size really right stuff ball head. The ball head fits into the Roadie 18 along with the rest. Both bags have excellent pockets to carry, protect and secure a tripod. Overall, I am happy with my purchase and would recommend both bags. I suggest you not only check the Amazon site but also google tendba's site for more information. I researched other products and decided these bags would better serve my purpose.

Finally got my roller carry on
I didn’t go through all the feature of the roller bag.First impression is the outer shell is rock hard and this is one of the primary reason I chose Air case so I Don’t mind giving the bag at the entrance of the flightBut I reconfigured the padded inserts and you can see that I was able to put in 500mm F4, 300mm F4, 1 full frame, 1 DX body and a TC. I can even put a flash or replace DX body with another full frame bodyAlso the bag is very deep inside which helps with large telephoto lens foot to be accommodated easily into the bagLastly it comes with rain coverThanks

Quality but overpriced
This is a quality roller bag. It is, in my opinion, a bit over priced though. There's not much you can load here since it's small so as a traveling photographer you will for sure need anotherl bag for additional accessories but it can definitely be a carry on for international flights. The side tripod pocket is really nice since it will somehow keep it obscure or you can use it to hold your water bottle. Overall it's a nice roller. Unfortunately, the space isn't enough for my essentials.

Nice Product
Very nice quality. I bought this to allow for safe travel of equipment and it's very sturdy. Make sure your items fit in the available space as the bag does not expand in any way (which is what makes it safe for your equipment).

Good not great
The bag itself is adequate of nice materials. However the inside of the bag lacks good padding which is very concerning when putting in a 400mm 2.8. Also, the size of the dividers is not varied enough to make true organization easy.

Great carry on for international travel
Searched long and hard for this bag. Not a back pack combo, which is exactly what I didn't want. I can pack 2 Nikon Z7ii (one body only, the other mounted with FTZii, Nikkor 50mm lens and SmallRig cage), 4 additional Nikkor lenes, 4 Godox TT600 strobes, a Godox AD200 Pro (w/charger & accessories), a Fusion TLC trigger, an Atomos Ninja V monitor, a Edelkrone FlexTilt Head & related mini tri-pod, 3 spare camera batteries w/charger, ... all with lots of spare room for clamps, chargers and cords. So no way do I ever wish to walk around with all that weight on my back.

Compact Convenience
Perfect compact camera bag. Great for a DSLR Camera, 2 lens and a few accessories. If you need to carry a lot of accessories move to the next size up.

Quality, but too large for carry on
Decent quality product, zippers, materials etc. Comparable to LowePro yet more expensive. The problem is the 14 inch width in the description is not accurate. It is 14.75 inch width compressed as hard as possible. The outside of each wheel width is 14.25", the hard thick handle on one side protrudes another 1/2 inch of width no matter how hard you try to push it through a 14" width checker. So this bag is a no go for US airlines which require 14 inches or less in width. It's also just over 9" depth which is accurate in the description. US airlines require 9" or less. Check Alaska Air's website to confirm this. I can't understand why they make the bag larger than allowed since nobody wants to check in expensive camera gear. I'll have to find another solution for my eclipse trip this weekend. Can't risk the camera gear.
