36L BacklightPhoto tas

Perfecte tas met zeer veel ruimte. Had voordien de lowe pro vertex 200 , maar hier paste mijn 500 F4 en de 100-400 met de rest van alle spullen niet in. Deze tas draagt ook veel fijner op de heupen en schouders. ook geen probleem meer met het meenemen van een 1L thermofles en het statief, plus een walkstool comfort stoeltje. Had voor de 500mm eerst ook een andere tas, deze gelukkig niet meer nodig. Nu alles in een tas ipv. 2 tassen. ben dus zeer tevreden en blij met deze 36L Bcklight Photo tas. een echte aanrader.

Heavy bag

Once you put your gear in this bag you can barely lift it, no way I could carry this around all day. Good quality bag with a lot of room just heavy.

Perfect size camera bag

I bought this larger pack to use for photographing college sporting events. The 36L is the perfect size for my Z8/70-180mm setup and my Z8/400mm setup or Z8/180-600mm setup. I also have plenty of room for extra outdoor clothing. I use the 2 water bottle pockets to carry my monopod and 3-legged mini stool to balance me out (I could easily use the tripod holder as well). With the pack weighing 20-25lbs, the distribution on my back and hips is amazing. Plenty of ways to adjust the weight. I also own the 26L I use for airline travel when I usually have just 1 camera setup and my laptop. The 26L fits under the seat on the plane for easy access or I grab what I need for the flight and throw it in the overhead. I’m very impressed with the design of both packs, the high quality material used and highly recommend this product to any serious photographer.
