Great camera backpack
This is a wonderful photography backpack. Wish I had switch to a backpack sooner. Compartments work great for batteries, lens cleaner, snack, storage cards. I did buy a hard sided waterproof card storage for SD cards to go with it.

Have not had a chance to use
I bought this camera backpack for travel, but I have not had a chance to use on a trip. Therefore, I will update this review once I have used it on a trip.So far I have to say it is a good backpack for me. The backpack offers some protection, that is, there is padding. The backpack’s outer cover is not just tough fabric. It has some cushioning. Its size can hold my full frame DSLR (Canon 5D Mark III) with a zoom lens (dim: 5″x8″x6″; 4 lbs) plus extra room for miscellaneous items. But it is not too big for travel. The size is a good fit for my needs.I will update my evaluation once I have had a chance to use this backpack on an actual trip.

An Amazing Smallish Backpack
Iâve had this bad for 2 years and it is still holding up amazingly well. It is an ideal backpack for small travels or day trips. I think this is an amazing camera backpack. It has enough room for everything I need to carry. I can fit my Sony camera attached to a 24-70 with three other prime lenses or a 70-200 along with SD cards, accessories, cleaning kits, etc. Iâd certainly recommend it to anyone!

Solid on the go camera backpack
I wanted a smaller, durable, and practical camera backpack for light hikes and outdoor day trips. The color is great and blends well in outdoor environments and looks good without being “tactical” or just another boring black backpack. It’s great for taking to the beach, park, or woods where you don’t care about it getting dirty or scuffed up. Fits my Canon 80D with ProMedia L grip and 70-200mm lens plus the hood and 3 other lenses perfectly with some room to spare. One cool feature that is especially useful is that the inner zippered pouch inside is velcro at the bottom, which means if you have a bigger/longer lense you can move the pouch and you still have room to store a camera with the lens attached to the camera body (see pic for example, trade off is you lose that storage compartment) Fits a water bottle and my K & F 28 tripod. Since the mesh goes all the way to where it meets the bag I am not sure about the long term durability of the mesh. Another thing to consider, and this isn’t a quality flaw, just an inherent design common to other backpacks, is the fact it opens face up. Why this matters is that if the ground is muddy/sandy/etc since you lay it straps and back down, when you put it back on you’re putting a dirty pack right up against you. If it zipped on the inside and you laid it face down to open it then you wouldn’t have that problem. Not a big deal but something to consider when you’re shopping for camera backpacks. Also, not a flaw but a consideration, there is no waist or chest strap and the shoulder strap and back padding is not particularly thick. It’s comfortable for shorter hikes but if you’re doing long hikes across a variety of terrain/elevation it will bounce and slide around and be distracting. The pockets on the front are great for storing wallets, keys, phones, SD cards, and tablets. *BONUS* The Pelican 1510 case fits it perfectly! (see picture) Also the Mosiso 15-16in camera backpack also fits. Bought the Pelican case to keep my camera gear safe when I go out boating or kayaking. The case rocks! If you’re carrying around expensive camera gear or drones, do yourself a favor, spend the money and get the Pelican 1510. Highly recommend it if you’re getting this backpack or a similar sized one.Overall I really like this bag. Lower profile but capable of carrying the gear you need. Good balance of function and form. Good for folks looking to stay light, mobile and active. Suited for light to moderate activity, great bag for shooting outdoor events like festivals and camping. Not as good if you are trying to carry a lot of gear or doing strenuous hikes across varied terrain/elevation.Pros/Benefits-Great color combo and build quality-Good side pockets and straps-Light but feels durable-Travel friendly dimensions-Interior compartments and pockets easy to move to fit your gearCons/Considerations-Non lockable zippers-Smaller size means limitations to the size of laptops that will fit in the backpack-Side pockets can be tight if interior of backpack is fully loaded or carrying bulky items-Opens face up-Not geared towards long hikes-Might be snug with larger frame cameras and bigger/longer lens

I don’t normally feedback on products but have just used this to its full potential a couple of weeks ago.I have a Nikon D3300 camera body with stock 18-55mm lens and a 70-300mm lens. Both fit well in the backpack.I have left the inserts in as they were sent to me and this works fine with the 70-300mm lens attached to the camera. But with easy configuration the inserts could be moved around. They are sturdy and give good protection. I also carry a small compact camera in one of the insert slots and the chargers in the other slots.There is an easy access pocket which I use for my iPad mini but it would take full size iPad or equivalent tablet. There is a smaller outer zipped pocket for smaller items such as pens, snacks or instruction books.There is an internal zipped pocket for glasses, cables or SD card readers. There is also a small inner pocket to carry a spare SD card.I used this to its full potential a couple of weeks ago when walking up and down mount Snowdon in Wales. I had this on for 7-8 hours and with no discomfort at all. There was enough room to squeeze in a light long sleeved top and rain coat. The 2 side mesh pockets came in useful for carrying 1 x 750ml sports bottle and a 500ml bottle of water. I was very impressed with its performance. Not too bulky and looks good as well. I have not tried it in the rain yet but can imagine it would stand up to a good shower.It’s a bit more expensive than some similar sized backpacks but you definitely get what you pay for. As I add more equipment and need a larger bag, I would not hesitate in buying Lowepro again.
