I have several backpacks and shoulder bags but I asn't completely satisfied to carry my gear (a mirrorless camera, 3 lens, a flash, some filters, cards and batteries). After check some of the last models available in the market, I decided to buy the V2 model and I have to say that I'm vary satisfied with the choice. The quality is very good, is very confortable and is very flexible in terms of available room. Honestly, I have to say it is the best choice for the gear I have.
I've been using the 20L for work and carrying my camera around on weekends. I really enjoy how organized I can keep my stuff compared to a single compartment backpack.
The backpack was the first thing I bought from Peak Design. As soon as I got it, I became the fan forever! It is very nice to touch, very stylish, fits all my stuff. I use it for work as a photography bag and I like to travel with it as well. There is no bag better than this one for me!
This product is well worth the money. Here is why: -Comfortable, -Sturdy, -Really well made, -Waterproof, -Extremealy well thought out, -Keeps the camera gear safe, -Looking good, -Lifetime warranty, -One of a kind,
I've been looking for the perfect camera backpack/everyday carry bag for a while and the 20L Everyday Backpack definitely fits the bill. The only hesitation I had was the price tag, but it has been well worth it. As a photojournalist, I carry around a Fujifilm X-T3 with 4 lenses no problem. I also shoot on a Mamiya RZ67 which fits really well if I position the interior flaps so it can sit vertically. Amazing backpack for my various shooting styles. Go get it!
This bag is incredible and still after a month of having it I'm still finding hidden pockets and everything! Being able to comfortably carry a 15.6 inch laptop, mirrorless a6400 with zoom lens, tripod and ipad with it's own carry case and lots more, it's truly amazing how much stuff I can fit in this bag without it feeling like i'm cramming stuff in. The other surprise was, despite the back feeling heavy with all my gear in it, it's surprisingly comfortable and the weight is very evenly distributed through the straps.
If you're on the fence because of the price, don't worry I was the same, but i took the plunge and didn't regret it.
I bought the Everyday Backpack v1 in early 2017. It quickly became my favorite backpack; I have been using it virtually every day since it arrived. As a full-time pro, I take it to every shoot, usually with two FF bodies and 3-6 lenses, (often including a 70-200) plus straps, memory cards, extra batteries, and maybe even a laptop. It all fits, and I've never felt like the bag was dangerously overloaded or unstable. I've also taken it hiking on long day hikes (trusty Capture Clip and PD carbon fiber tripod in stow) and it is comfortable, breathable, and stores everything I need and then some. It's also my go-to travel bag; back when we actually went places on airplanes, I'd sometimes only take this bag, with 1-2 days of clothes, toiletries, a camera and lens, and laptop fitting easily and comfortably inside. For longer trips, I'd bring it as my carryon or day bag for wandering through cities or national parks.
Despite near-daily use (and abuse) the bag held up beautifully, until finally, about a month ago, one of the zippers did finally break. I contacted Peak Design, and they swapped out my old friend for a new (or like-new refurb, I couldn't tell the difference) bag within a week! I look forward to many more years of life with the replacement bag, and this whole experience further solidifies my love of PD's products and PD itself.
The only con I can think of is that if you're an idiot like me sometimes you forget the side zips are open and you drop a lens. Always check!
I've been looking for a long time for the ultimate bag; the one that won't give me a backpain but that can hold more that a body and tow lenses. This bag feels good once on your back and is easily ajustable. I can easily fit (in the 20L) a body, up to 4 or 5 lenses (primarly prime lenses) and some accessories.
