Essential camera cube for the travel bag

This is a very high quality camera cube designed perfectly for the 45L travel bag. I have the medium cube and it fits a very large amount of camera gear. I can easily fit 2 Sony bodies and a few lenses in with extra accessories. I only have one complaint and it’s not towards the functionality of the cube. I went for this ecosystem because I figured I could use the cube to store all my gear during the travel and then when I’m at my homebase I could take the cube out and use it as a sling for lighter carry. While this is possible it’s really not practical due to the size of the cube. It might be more possible with the smaller camera cube. Also, the cube is hooked into the bag via for hooks that would be cumbersome to continually put back in place every time you move to the next location. Small gripe but nothings perfect.
These cubes are well built with excellent padding and dividers. Just the right height to be able to stand lenses up and lay your camera in a way that is best for access. The ability to add a camera strap and carry it as a sling is a great feature. Highly recommended!
I pruchased this medium size cube for my Nikon D500 after searching many other cases. What really sold me on this case was how easy it can be customized to fit individual need and camera equipment. This case is light weight and offer excellent protection for you equipment. I attached my Peak Design Slide Pro strap to this case during travel and put it back on the camera during my shoot. The handy handle is a plus also. Highly recommended!
My partner was headed for Antarctica and thought she’d go on a bucket list trip with just her iPhone 14 Pro to photograph the penguins and the ice. Nope! The new Canon M50 MkII I surprised her with needed a new home and Peak Design Camera Cubes were up for the challenge. The small bag perfectly held the body of the camera, the standard lens, a Canon 75-300mm zoom lens and a 1K Gorilla Pod with 3 batteries and a dual battery charger. This all fit into her existing backpack for carryon and cruise excursions for maximum Emperor Penguin Exposure.
The reduction in a star is because I don’t find the “shelf” aspect of their case dividers to be the easiest to use. The dividers themselves are great but the shelf is a little stiff and difficult to deploy.
Carry my a7III every day in the 45-liter travel bag and have not had an issue yet. The small cube fits my body with a 24-70mm attached. I think it would fit 70-200mm but without the body. I might step up to the medium depending on how often I want to carry more gear.r
Nice quality. Feels sturdier than some of my other camera bags, with a bit more structure to it. I don't have the backpack that it's made to go in, but I think it will work well as a standalone organizer.
