Some small shop builders, Lemolo, Swift among them, make nice panniers with custom options. Ortlieb are great though. The mounting hardware is very adjustable. Once adjusted, Ortliebs are very easy to get on and off. The material is rugged and definitely waterproof (my stuff has made it through a long ride in the rain a lot better than I on several occasions). The only problem I ever had is the adjustment lever screw can come loose when riding long distance. Of course not really a problem if I just think to give a second to checking it before riding.
