Top backpack with good carrying support and comfort. Fulfils the conditions that a photographer expects of a backpack (and many more). I can only recommend it.
Very well thought-out system with plenty of space for camera (+ lenses) and other equipment. Very suitable for camping as you could also take a small tent, sleeping bag etc. with you.
In addition, you can remove the camera holder and then detach the wall (attached with Velcro) and then you have a normal backpack for camping/touring/skiing.
What I don't like:
1. there is no pocket with finer divisions. There are two pockets at the top of the "lid", one of which is very large and has two dividers, although these dividers are too large for my taste.
2. my camera with battery grip (Canon full frame 5d mark iii + battery grip) plus the Canon 100-400mm lens do not fit in the backpack like in the pictures.... Only the 70-200mm is shown in the pictures. Through a different organisation I managed to carry the lens next to the camera in the backpack, but mounted on the camera it becomes a challenge if you have a lot of other equipment.Pro
- Plenty of space
- Good quality
- High wearing comfort
- Suitable for camping/small expeditions
- Easy to operate with gloves
- Can also be used as a normal backpack (without camera insert)
Contra
- Relatively heavy empty weight
- No "small pockets" for e.g. batteries
- 100-400mm doesn't really have room

For me personally (164cm) a bit uncomfortable on long hikes, but a lot of space
Optimal photo backpack and daypack in one
Optimal photo backpack that can also be used as a daypack without photo equipment thanks to the modular camera bag. The many outside pockets and flaps make it versatile to use and pack. Exactly what I was looking for.
Pro
- Versatile
- Good quality
- Great design
- Plenty of space for camera and accessories
- Camera bag can be removed
