I've had troubles fitting my pelican carry-on in regional plane's overhead bins. Thanks for the Burton recommendation. It looks more functional than other non-camera backpacks I own and it doesn't scream "photo gear bag."
Hey dude great video! I have owned a few Burton bags and each bag has a lifetime warranty so for that broken buckle you can just send it in and they will fix it or just give you a new one. Burton has amazing customer service, hope this helps.
Problem is that although many European airlines will have the same linear requirement of 115 cm, the size has to be within 55x40x20 cm. The Pelican case is too big.
I had the Focus 30 for the longest time. There are better looking bags but you get so much gear into that thing! Now I have the Gitzo 45l and I swear, the Burton has more room! The straps are lacking some comfort though
Hello, I left the Burton in the basement. And now I found it while i moved to another flat:-). Used only once ... The quality is really top, but the space, or better the dividers are not so good. I've been trying for 2 hours to accommodate a Sony A9 with 100-400 installed. Plus two smaller lenses. But I need access from above. And if another lens sits on it, I have to have room for the 100-400. I go crazy. That goes simply with my Tenba 15 DNA. I think, it's time kick it away :-)
Israel Baldago you can pack them to be lighter if you need. The backpack is a standard weight for most backpacks but the Pelican is typically pretty heavy. I fly Delta 90% of the time and I’ve never had carry on weight issues.
Hi Myles, thanks for all your videos. I would like to ask you if you can tell me the outside dimensions of the internal camera stuff yellow case / bag. Thanks!
Tedd Jong they're actually very comfortable. That pack has been used a lot but I just bought the same bag again but in black and the shoulder straps are great. Plus the new waist belt helps remove that weight from your shoulders 👍🏼
Chris Mai yes! With two exceptions: every airline let's me put it under the seat (except British Airways...every time) and the key is to not stuff the backpack top compartment super full so if you get questioned you can show them that it squishes down to fit under the seat.
Oh that's great to hear! Do you recommend splitting up your gear between bags? Or do you just throw all your camera equipment in the pelican and clothes in the backpack when you travel?
Depends on what I need to carry. Sometimes I'll use a carry-on sized rolly bag that I'll pack clothes, batteries and Gldiecam in and keep the laptop, lenses and camera components in the backpack.
Hey Myles, dope review, I'm considering it alognside the f-stop Tilopa, but I can't find the size of the Internal Camera Unit from the Burton Focus anywhere. Could you please give us the details? Thanks in advance bro!
I have a full size tripod with fluid head and travel tripod but I rarely shoot on sticks unless I'm on a long lens. I've seen some nice check-sized hard cases for tripods and stands. Maybe see what B&H has to offer?
Using tape to holding in place the handle , that's weird & unprofessional !!!!! Get the " Nanuk 935 carry on case " you wont have this stupid problem. NANUK cases has double action claws, yes made in Canada !
Thanks for the tip on the burton, they discontinued it unfortunately but i managed to find one. It’s amazing, perfect for my needs.
Thanks for the review! I just picked up the Burton Focus 30L pack and I'm just figuring out how to use it now.

Awesome video bro! I’m wondering, is there any significant space to throw in some clothes for a multi day trip? Or just the top pouch?
July 2020 update: I'm still using this same Pelican case and I bought the same backpack in black. Still my two favorite travel-ready bags!
@@firashaddad3103 It won't fit a 27" monitor.

This video is perfect! I actually was thinking how am I bringing my drone on holiday
Thanks! So glad it helps. It's a tight fit but the Phantom Pro body and components juuuust fit. Thanks for watching!
I just want to ask...where can I get this flexible black tray what you have shown in hard case... thanks if you can share link
Great tips! Got a link for the translucent paper? Where do you get yours (or just anything in the ballpark)?
This is great Myles - how heavy are these bags and would they even meet carry on weight requirements? (7kg)? They look fairly heavy
Israel Baldago you can pack them to be lighter if you need. The backpack is a standard weight for most backpacks but the Pelican is typically pretty heavy. I fly Delta 90% of the time and I’ve never had carry on weight issues.
Same pelican case I have I love it
Hi Myles, thanks for all your videos. I would like to ask you if you can tell me the outside dimensions of the internal camera stuff yellow case / bag. Thanks!
Does the Burton bag have a waterproof bottom?
Excellent presentation
Hi! Great review! May I ask how are the shoulder straps of the Focus pack? Are they comfortable? Seem pretty thin to me. Thanks!
Tedd Jong they're actually very comfortable. That pack has been used a lot but I just bought the same bag again but in black and the shoulder straps are great. Plus the new waist belt helps remove that weight from your shoulders 👍🏼
Myles Shank Thank you for your quick reply! Great video again!
Thanks Tedd!
Amazing recommendation, thank you!!
You can carry that backpack as a carry-on personal item in addition to the pelican?
Chris Mai yes! With two exceptions: every airline let's me put it under the seat (except British Airways...every time) and the key is to not stuff the backpack top compartment super full so if you get questioned you can show them that it squishes down to fit under the seat.

life time warranty on Burton bags... you should bug them about the fast tech clip...

Hey! Sure, give me a bit and I’ll measure the interior
@@MylesShank Thanks dude! :)
what kind of tripod you put with these? or do you not travel with one?
I have a full size tripod with fluid head and travel tripod but I rarely shoot on sticks unless I'm on a long lens. I've seen some nice check-sized hard cases for tripods and stands. Maybe see what B&H has to offer?
thanks for your help and reply!

Maybe - I'm not sure about those lens dimensions
Not everyone has an Apple. Yes... I have a Dell.
