I am loving the grey interiors! I have them on a few other bags as well, and they are light enough to see everything and neutral enough not to clash. I brighten them up with stuff sacks and various organizer pouches, usually in UltraViolet and Solar/Solaris. The grey interiors are also light enough...

Ah, G42, that link is very helpful and I missed the last time you posted it. I have a short torso even for my “petite” height, which is why the bags with the shorter heights fit me better....

I’m pretty much exactly five feet tall, and the Paradigm and Synapse 19 fit best. (I haven’t tried the Paragon or the Syniks.) I was pretty “meh” about the Luminary, I sold my 15 because it fit but the tall, narrow shape just never worked for what I carry. The Synapse 25 absolutely does not...

I would be curious how you load the Smart Alec for a camera. I’ve always had a hard time working out of backpacks when shooting, because they are so awkward to access.

Oh, man. I have a Black/Black/Solar Smart Alec which I acquired used a few years back, and I love it. But that Aubergine/Mountain Grey Smart Alec in the pre-order is calling my name, because those are my colors!!
Between that and the new Paramour I am going to have to spend some time considering...
