If there's one thing we love, it's neatly-stowed gear. Camera bags provide some of the most comprehensive, modular, protective and well-thought-out storage around; M-Rock's new 525 (pictured above) is a good example of this, and will be available come September.
They're also offering the 526, which is like the 525 but with a telescope handle and roller wheels for those long jaunts through the terminal.
Bargain hunters take note: now that the 525 is the new hot camera bag, M-Rock's unloading the 524 (pictured below) for ten bucks less than its successor. On top of that, M-Rock is currently offering 15% off on all bags.

Nice clean bag. However, speaking from experience as a camera bag designer, there is nothing new here at all. This is a very common, if not standard design of access and function from the 80s/90s. The addition of the laptop compartment is the next *new* but obvious design feature that every camera bag company has implemented over the past few years. Take a look at Crumpler, Kata, Naneu Pro, Lowe Pro, Tenba, ThinkTank and others for some interesting and serious innovations in camera bag design.
I have to agree with T. Also being a camera bag designer I can say that MRock is pretty much a knock-off brand. All their bags are almost direct copies of LowePro bags that have been on the market for 10+ years already. The brands listed above are doing much more innovative designs.
