Great review Aaron! I agree that this is a very versatile and well engineered camera backpack! I also like the McKinnon 35L for my longest lens, a Nikkor Z 180-600. Thanks!

It's cool to see how a real professional photographer uses their bag and how much photo gear is needed.

@Nomads.Nation 6 месяцев назад

Hell yea, Tav killed this

@jeffbrown8117 6 месяцев назад

I’ve got one medium cube and two small cubes. Great thing about this is each cube I have is packed out for different set ups. One small cube I use for an everyday carry street photography set up. Small Sony a6000 with a 28 or 50 lens. My other small is for my 35mm film set up. Camera and some extra film. My medium is for my main set up which has room for my main digital and my main 35mm. So, depending on my mood that day and what I feel like shooting, I can just rotate my cubes in and out and store them in my cabinet already packed out. Terrific system and I feel it’s worth the money.

@Nomads.Nation 6 месяцев назад

Glad you like! Tav agrees - it’s still his go to camera bag (and he has a lot to choose from haha)

@AbsolutKenny 6 месяцев назад

I own this bag and sell it after several month of use. the main problem with this bag is the false bottom for laptop section. it didn't over bouncy protection at all. the bump sound of the laptop will be quite loud if you drop it like casual. the other thing the side pocket it's good with magnetic but didn't hug the item and you will need to buy another strap. I would rather use peak design and it's much better in my opinion in alll usecase. yes it can stand by it's own but still, no proper false bottom for laptop is a big no. for the padding for me not comfortable enough and too much padding and the surface touch our body not wide enough. If you wear a watch it's very easy stuck while you slide in. almost everytime my watch stuck when slide my hand into it.

@Nomads.Nation 6 месяцев назад

Thanks for your perspective!

@mrtavetski1859 6 месяцев назад

Yea a false bottom should be a standard in all bags - that choice doesn't make sense to me neither

@jonuiuc 6 месяцев назад

I feel the same about side swinging, it just doesn’t work for me. If I want to access a bag while still standing and not taking it off I go with a shoulder bag or sling. Backpacks I put on then take off, it’s for bigger loads. The camera backpack that works for the best for me is the Tenba DNA 16. No other backpack has its style of camera compartment access, it’s tarpaulin too and self standing.

@Nomads.Nation 6 месяцев назад

We’ll have to check out the Tenba - thanks for the recommendation

@mrtavetski1859 6 месяцев назад

Yo it has a drawer/bucket thing? Thats super innovative! I had never heard of tenba before this

@jonuiuc 6 месяцев назад

@@mrtavetski1859 Yeah I like I can set it down standing and just get to the camera. Its similar to a wandrd prvke in looks but it doesn't need to lay down. The company that owns Tenba also owns Shimoda, which is a more kickstarter marketed brand. They make nice stuff, thats usually for sale in photo/camera stores. Their product videos are actually really good, a lot of these photo brands videos' will trot a designer out there and they talk for way too long about a design or its all artsy video with music that doesn't explain the bags at all. I like their style.

@diegodominguez205 28 дней назад

Great Review! I have a 35L as well but have you experienced zipper problems as well?

@Nomads.Nation 27 дней назад

Our videographer Tav has used this as his camera bag for years now - no zipper issues yet

@jamillsantiago 6 месяцев назад

I was an original backer of the Kickstarter campaign. IMO, this is the ultimate camera backpack. I've traveled the world with it, and have no intentions of switching camera bags in years to come. Its size, versatility, and features are just what I've been wanting from a camera bag for a long time. The only real con IMO is the jetpack look you mentioned. It's not really waterproof tho. It's water resistant, which is not the same. When I was in Kyoto, it kept raining, and my backpack was drenched, but my equipment was completely dry. That being said, with enough time and water, it can get to your equipment.

@Nomads.Nation 6 месяцев назад

Yes, the distinction between waterproof and water resistant is very important

@mrtavetski1859 6 месяцев назад

Yea totally right, given enough time water will find its way in. Tho my experience is similar to yours, everything is drenched, bit camera is dry

@Lucaemar 6 месяцев назад

As a outdoors photographer and backpack collector with a weak spot for nice and shiny premium stuff I really liked the bag after the first 2min 40s, but those waterbottle holder situations, lack of sideaccess and the zipperpole mess are all big turn offs :( Sticking with the PeakDesign Everyday ;) *edit: I should've watched the entire thing before commenting, the cons just kept coming lol No huge flaws, but so so many "eh its not ideal"-points, a $400 bag should have none of those **edit2: regarding sideaccess, I rarely use it with the bag swung onto my side, though that works for me too. The main thing IMO is that, I can put the bag down and on its side, maybe on a bench, and get stuff out - a lot more space efficient than a big back flap. For those you need to lay out the bag much more.

@Nomads.Nation 6 месяцев назад

Appreciate your perspective!

@mrtavetski1859 6 месяцев назад

Yea, I personally found side access in the peak design to feel very sketch, tho I never thought of putting it on a bench. When I'm out on shoots I 100% need the full layout too. Those rocket flaps on the other hand hahhah 😂
