This backpack is really made of good quality materials. The size is perfect. Its durable and lightweight.

I have many smaller backpacks and I like them for various reasons, but I don’t have any medium to larger sized packs that even come close to this one. It is by far one the most comfortable packs for me and has so many features that I absolutely love. I should start by stating that I’m 5’8” tall and female. I would consider myself narrow framed, but muscular from years of farm work. Often, backpacks will ride on the balls of my shoulders and eventually cut in. I did not find that with this pack and the ability to adjust is excellent. Additionally, having the chest strap and waste strap allows me to alternate the weight as I hike by loosening and tightening these straps therefore reducing stress points. I can literally wear this for hours without fatigue and that’s a big deal for me. I often hike mountains for shots and hiking up and down trails makes you realize the importance of being able to easily adjust your pack strapping (and therefore the way you are carrying the weight) for various terrain. One other huge adjustment for me is the lumbar padding. I was able to move this upward to fit my back frame more comfortably.

Physically, the pack is made well. All the stitching is secure. The pack seems rugged and durable. I really like the look of the pack. I got the khaki color and it doesn’t show the dirt as much as a dark color would (nothing stays clean in the environments I go into). Everything works well (zippers, clips, cinching belts, etc.) and the strapping is very secure. The metal hardware is excellent quality and is used in all the locations where hardware typically fails. It is clear that this bag was manufactured by a team that knows the struggles of being a photographer in rough terrain.

In addition to the ability to adjust the pack, there are quite a few features I really like that are more specific to photographers. First, on both of the shoulder straps, there are zippered pouches. I found these good for extra cards, batteries and lens cleaning wipes. There are also all kinds of straps and buckles to place action cameras on your pack if you want to film your adventure. The waist pack has two zippered areas for more camera gear and I used one for snacks, too. The side has areas for tripods and I also used one of the side pockets to carry one of my water bottles, bear spray, and a flashlight. I was able to carabiner clip other small items to the front straps, too.

The top has a secured zipper section good for carrying a small monitor, audio gear, action camera stuff, or even a small light. When it gets colder, I’ll probably stuff extra socks, shirt, and gloves in there, too. There are two zippered areas there for more gear, as well. The main body is fully accessible from the back (behind the back padding) and can be completely removed if you want to pack it cube style in a suitcase or use it in another bag. The main compartment is well padded and has a separate zippered shell to go around it which I believe is water resistant. Although not needed to use with the backpack, I do wish there was a way to have a padded cover that could be added to this cube in case you wanted to use it in another way. For example, to use it in a suitcase. That way you wouldn’t have to worry about gear getting crushed from the top. However, this is probably a big ask and not really part of using it with the backpack shell. It is really cool that it is removable basically converting the backpack from photography use to more of a general pack use. This main pack is accessible by a side panel in the backpack. This I did find a little odd as you have two zippers to get to your gear (one on the pack and one on the removable cube). I don’t really use my backpacks this way, but I could see it being a little cumbersome for those that like the quick access. I was able to get two DSLR bodies, multiple lenses, filters, and action cameras and accessories into the cube body. It’s really a great size.

Inside the back section is also a space for a small laptop or tablet. There are also specific pockets for storing filters. The filter pockets are just thin fabric and will hold most filters, however, if you have a protective cover for your filters, they may not fit. Many of my filters are 77mm and my filter covers are too large to fit the pockets and I was not comfortable just placing the filter in them without protection. Alternatively, the pockets are great for cards or batteries. The back also has a “cargo net” where I keep a sweatshirt and extra shoes.

There are two handles on the backpack – one at the top and one center back. They are really rugged, but not padded sufficiently to carry the pack by them long distance. There is also a raincoat for the backpack. It fits like a glove. The only negative is if you have something like shoes in the “cargo net” area. It will not cover if you have too much stuffed in there. One other negative is during really warm days, the back soft frame can be warm, but I have not found a backpack that isn’t.

I absolutely love this backpack. I’ve been able to use it multiple times since receiving it and I expect it to be with me for a long time. I would definitely recommend it.

I wanted to love this backpack because it seems very well thought out with lots of clips and clasps everywhere to make it very versatile and functional, but I used it on a recent trip and it was very uncomfortable. It holds a pretty good amount of gear. The style looks super cool, but if you are traveling with it, it feels very heavy and straining on your back. The size is pretty big and an empty backpack feels like it weighs 5 pounds. I think this is because the material is very thick and waterproof, but this also means the thick and heavy fabric makes it hard to open and close the zippers so you dread having to open any zippers. The fabric is also very stiff. It is very good at keeping rain out and all the seams and padding seems very high-quality and well, sewn I just have to take off one star because it is not a comfortable backpack to wear. Also, there are lots of straps dangling all over. If you are looking for something that can withstand the elements, but don’t mind a sore back, then this backpack will work. Also, there are some small little pockets on the straps and sides that I never ended up using because the fabric is so stiff and the pockets are small. It’s hard to fit more than just maybe some batteries.

PROS: this backpack is very nice quality, its heavily padded(back and straps)and is comfortable to wear even when full. It has moveable velcro inserts and many different pockets to storage lots of camera gear(ex. Full frame Camera, lens, memrory cards, batteries etc). I like that it comes with a waterproof bag cover as well

CONS: It is quite expensive, its a lot bigger in person then it appeared online, and its confusing to use(also opens from the side), so many straps and buckles and details, with poor instructions included.

Overall I would recommend this product to others

When it arrived, I was a bit taken away by its size, it’s huge, which is actually perfect for someone like me with a mountain of camera gear and accessories. If you’ve got loads of kit, this bag is a good choice. The quality is top notch; it feels sturdy and well crafted, with a pleasing texture to the material. The zippers are robust and glide smoothly, and the sheer number of pockets and compartments is great for keeping everything organised. Everything inside is well protected thanks to the generous padding, so I’ve no worries about my Canon gear getting knocked about. Carrying it is a doddle, the straps are comfortable and easily adjustable, making it a breeze to wear even when fully loaded. I also love that it fits within carry on dimensions, which is a massive plus for travel. The customisation options are a nice touch, letting me tweak the interior to suit my needs. Overall, it’s a functional, spacious, and comfortable backpack that handles heavy loads with ease and offers good value for money.

I have used a few camera bags now and my favourite is a small one which somehow manages to feel much bigger than it is because it's so configurable, this is a much larger bag - but it's also very configurable so you can modify to how you wish.

This is a highw camera bag than my smaller one, which is good as it provides more vertical support for tripods or stands attached to the side of the bag.

This is genuinely a really well build and comfy bag to use, the strps hug you can provide solid support so the bag doesn't move around on top of yours clothes, the zyp up compartments on the straps are genius and are great for keeping a phone in, I actually used this to store a powerbank so I could plug my phone in as I walk.

The main section contains a removal camera section, so you can take this out and use this as a 'regular' bag, or if you have camera cubes you can put those in instead, but the actual one provided is so good you're unlikely to need a different solution. I love the top section too, I like to have a section fort general stuff - like a hoodie, a drink, and of course ...snacks!

I really can't fault this bag, it works perfectly and feel well constructed, I've only been out in decent weather but the fact it's water proof gives me peace-of-mind because it WILL rain eventually while I'm out! The bag looks discreet too, you look like a hiker rather than a photographer with several thousands of pounds worth of equipment strapped to your back!

This backpack is a great size, and I love the color. Absolutely love how well the camera on it works, the image quality is definitely not the best, but it does look very clear. It has a lot of grain in it though. I would definitely recommend because I love the storage on it and how comfortable it is. 4⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

K&F never fails to impress with the thought and design that goes into their gadgets and accessories. I also have quite a few of the filters. But this bag is just at a different level. I have a Tortuga Outbreaker and I always thought that was the most comfortable bag I've ever had, but this one is even more comfortable. Especially the way the pads are situated against my back. You can actually feel the air exchange. And even fully loaded at about 23 lbs of gear, it does not get hot on my back and it really doesn't feel heavy. The load lifters and belt hit at just the right spot. I like the belt pockets. Great for one 77mm filter each. The side access is really handy and the zipper is really smooth. So it is pretty easy to open it with one hand and pull my camera with my other hand.

Some other touches that are just great. The removable camera cube is a great feature because it keeps the shape of the bag when it is in, but it is also a nice thing I can set out and use for a stationary shoot location. I also like the tripod holder. It feels secure and it is quick to deploy. The top compartment is large enough for a single change of clothes and maybe a snack. I had to find a spot for my water in the camera cube. So the rest of my kit is a Lumix S5iiX in a black mamba cage, usually with a 24-105mm f4, along with my 50mm and 85mm, a wireless mic kit, Insta360 X5 and a small kit of accessories with it. Some other cleaning stuff, and the filter pack. Everything fits really well.

I love this bag and I always get compliments when I have it on. It's got to be the best camera bag of this size that I've ever had and I just can't think of any way that it could be improved. I do think that if I ever traveled for a length of time with it I would have probably rather had the 40l.
