>>2962830I own this one. Extremely sturdy, works good for what it's supposed to be used for, which is one-day trips. For me, the camera compartment can fit two bodies and four lenses plus hoods. The rest can go into the upper compartment. The straps are super comfy, and never chafe even after a whole day of carrying 15+ kilos. The bottom (i.e. abdomen) clips were designed with non-manlets in mind though. I wish there were more straps on its sides so that it would be easier to attach extra gear which doesn't fit inside, i.e. water canteens. Also, it is small enough to take as a cabin luggage. The price you pay for the build quality is the weight, obviously.
>>2963276Purchased this thing for 50 bucks or so a couple of weeks ago from the Chineese. Was looking for a backpack that wouldn't scream "camera inside" to cc a dslr on a daily basis because I got tired of wrapping my camera in something soft and placing it in the same compartment with the other stuff.
So far it is alright for what I paid for it, however the tension locks are poorly (i.e. like shit) designed and let the straps slip little by little when walking and especially running, i.e. oscillating up and down. Will have to fix that. The straps themselves will probably get uncomfortable when the backpack is loaded to the brim, thankfully I don't intend to. The provided rain cover is xboxhueg for no reason. Without it the backpack can keep its contents intact under a non-torrential rain for a while though, probably except for the laptop compartment. The camera compartment is adequately padded.
Getting the camera out is not nearly as easy as doing the same with a Lowepro and it's even harder to put it back in because the frame isn't exactly rigid and the zippers don't feel too sturdy too. If it's the same with the original backpack which sells for like 200 bucks then I feel sorry for the fools who bought it. The upside is that the zipper is sorta hidden between the folds and is inconspicuous.
