Let me just start off by saying that this bag is AWESOME. The quality is unmatched - that's the whole reason I bought it. I was tired of zippers breaking on cheap bags. As an everyday bag, the pockets and top "loft" as I call it is really great for keeping everything accessible.
Since I bought it, I have been using it as a camera bag. Although I wouldn't necessarily recommend it for this purpose, it has done well. It's definitely a bit cumbersome to have to open up different zippers to get to different lenses, especially when it comes to larger setups. Nonetheless, it holds my two bodies, two telephoto lenses, and three smaller lenses plus accessories and a tripod. Not bad!
Was reluctant about the price, but this bag has completely changed my flow. I always hated packing mu things into various general-purpose bags, unpacking later…now everything is in this single, beautifully designed, rigid bag.
I now just keep all my lenses & extra body in it (lav kit in the small pouch they sell, which I’ve been looking for one for a bit), then pick it up and go. Strong and rigid like a suitcase, but as comfortable as a bookbag.
It has increased the efficiency that I access my equipment with, which is critical for quick decisions and setting things up.
They truly thought of everything and I’m really enjoying my bag!
I ordered this backpack in the new Coyote color, and it’s more beautiful than I expected. The design and quality also didn’t disappoint. It’s sleek, clean, and so efficient with how versatile it can be. I’m truly so in love with it.
Peak Design is, without a doubt, the best company I’ve ever worked with as a photographer. Their commitment to their customers is unmatched, and their gear is simply outstanding. I can’t imagine ever owning a camera bag from anyone else. I also have several of their other products, and I couldn’t be more satisfied. If you want high-quality camera gear from a company that truly stands behind it, Peak Design is the way to go.
I use mine everyday for work with the shelves in a T formation. My everyday essentials goes in one side, work equipment in the other, then my lunch on top
