Those are both quite large and somewhat boxy bags ... I saw the D400AW at the shop and concluded that it was more than I needed or wanted. They didn't have the Nova 5 in stock so I couldn't do a direct comparison. They differ in their layout by a variety of subtleties. For me, I'd have to have both of them in front of me with the gear I wanted to carry to test in them before making a decision. (Had the same problem myself ... I'm looking for a larger working bag than what I have right now that will be suitable for a variety of my gear. I ended up ordering the Crumpler 6 and 7 Million Dollar Home models and the Lowepro Stealth Reporter D200 and D300 AW models, after confirming with the vendor that it would be all right to choose one of the four and return the other three. I expect them to arrive about April 9th. Right now, the Crumpler 7 Million Dollar Home is my front runner as it seems less boxy and just as spacious compared to the D300AW, but I reserve judgement for when it arrives... !)
