Using the Backpack literally everyday, most used features are fast access to top, wallte pouch and laptop/iPad compartment. Though its a bit thight, especially with MacBook Pro and iPad Pro with case. Combining it with Tech Pouches greatly increases versatility. Straps are really useful when hiking. Waterproof finally lety me focus the umbrella on keeping rain from me and not my gear
Got it a fortnight ago and started to stuff my camera gear into it. Really every detail has been given thought about. You can configure the bag exactly to your needs and size of camera and other gear. Easy to handle and compact. Only thing I miss: The info, for how long does it withstand rain? It's labeled: "Weatherproof", and that means...?
The first Peak Design Backpack I bought was the Travel Backpack, which I loved but found too big for everyday use, so when the Everyday Backpack was released I bought it right away and generally very happy with the backpack. It has many pockets throughout the pack so organization is very good, accessibility is great as well.
Kinda wish there is a front pocket for tiny or quick access items as well but not an issue at all.
15L is very suitable for daily use and can be matched with other large-sized backpacks. But I hope that the strap can be fixed on the back (it can be magnetic or storage), so that it can be more convenient when you carry it.
I have the V1 backpack (with the flap top) and the zip version is a definite improvement because even though the V1 flap closes securely, the zip version is more water resistant. The backpack is highly configurable and it’s storage capacity is amazing
This bag was everything I was looking for in a camera backpack. I wanted something light and sturdy but offered room for storage not just for cameras but also other items. I’ve had multiple backpacks with dedicated compartments for camera gear but they were either too small, not expandable, or hard to access. Yea I could get a pro backpack but they just those just look ugly. This one checked all the boxes in term of style and functionality! I just wish they would give more dividers than just two. And the dividers are not secured all the way to stop smaller things from moving from one compartment to another as you move around.
I have been using this backpack every day since just before the start of the pandemic, it is perfect for every aspect of my life, work, travel, exercise, day-tripping - the camera specific features are great AND have so many other uses.
using it for baby needs for a month now. we’ve no complaints; specifically picked this bag model and color for its functionality and aesthetic. 4 stars because there’s always room for improvement.
