Great video guys! 🙏🏽 Just a tip ... the Peak Design backpack has a hip belt which is hidden at the bottom inside the side pockets. The belt passes through the hole which is on the bottom of the side pockets which can pass through to secure around the waist. Also, the zippers can loop round several loop holes to give some security protection but its not the best. 😁
I’m a huge fan of Peak designs stuff and have been eyeing one of their camera backpacks for awhile now. Thanks for reviewing it here! Great stuff as usual guys. -Jim
Nice list, guys! There are quite a few that I hadn’t heard of 🙂
My favorite bags are (ranging from large to small):
• Large: Lowepro ProTactic 450 and Kelty Redwing 50L (with a camera cube)
• Medium: Recycled Firefighter 12 Hour Bag (with small camera cube) and Vanguard Alta Rise 45
• Smallish: ThinkTank Turnstyle 10, Vanguard Discover 38 and I’m currently testing the Signature 10 from ThinkTank...I have high hopes for it 👍🏻
PS: I have the Mountain Pack from Topo Designs and it’s really well made + very functional. But the shoulder straps do cause quite a bit of strain, even with minimal weight. The hip belt doesn’t offer much relief either.
The timing for this video is perfect! I'm currently hunting around for a good camera bag that I can use on trips. Thanks for all of the great info y'all!
Awesome! Which one caught your eye?
The f-stop small pro ICU! I have an Osprey backpack that I love and having a more portable camera bag insert seems like it would be the best fit for me. I'm not super familiar with f-stop, but y'all did a wonderful job discussing the pros and cons of their bags- I'll definitely be checking them out. On another note, would y'all consider dedicating a video to camera lenses in the future? I have a Sony Alpha a6000 that I've used primarily for photography, but I want to expand into video and I'm unsure where to start. Thanks and all the best!
This was super helpful! I'm looking for my first backpack at the moment and upgrading my camera gear as well so what I've been using to keep my gear safe won't cut it anymore. I didn't even think of buying an all in one bag rather than a separate camera bag and backpack! Thanks a lot you guys are great! 😊
There are so many types of camera bags! There were many bags in the world that were not found in Japan, and the video was very interesting. It was helpful. Thank you! With love from Japan :)
I’ve been traveling with the G-Raphy “Fly-Leaf” for a couple of weeks in Morocco. Perfect carry-on size, comfortable and has a separate camera bag for day excursions. Almost went with the Peak Design but it was 3x the price. :)
I think the Lowepro Hatchbag is also very good for travel, especially with a mirrorless system. It fits a Sony a7 series camera with a 16-35gm and three other prime lenses. The ICU is also detachable, and you can only open from the back which can prevent fro’ theft. It’s super lightweight, and you still can fit many daily essentials in the upper storage space.
I use Osprey Kamber with ICUs, finally found the set-up I've been looking for! My Clik Elite backpacks are now just resting in my closet. The Kamber is a backcountry snowsport pack, and does not look like a camera bag for security.
This is the video I've been looking for thank you so much!
Been looking for this EXACT video. HEROES! Thank you. Going to help with my channel a lot! ❤🌍
Cheers 🤙🏽
Same!!!!
The peak design backpack does have a hip strap. It’s hidden in the water bottle pockets. Also on the bottom there are extra straps from external carry.
Great review. While you were traveling, which was your most used camera gadget?
Please share which airline lets you take a 70L pack as carry on??? The Sukha is not carry on compatible. The Tilopa is 49L and it's touted as carry on compatible but even with this, I've been asked a few times to check it (so I take the ICU out and with me). If you want guaranteed carry on compliant, go with the Anja @ 40L
THIS! This was exactly my thought as I watched this.
Also came here to write this. Have you had issues carrying on a 40L?
@@beiselphotography I've taken my Loka (older 40L F-Stop bag) all over the world as a carry-on.
I was also curious about this. If you have to check in the large bags and not as a carry-on. is everyhting that sturdy that it will survive all the throwing and punishment of traveling with airplanes?
Very loud applause - this was my weekend homework, find this video / bag (going with the Sukha). Thank you guys! I'm going to be out of a job at the end of May and after years of dreaming and watching others travel the world, I'm taking a me year. Undergrad, grad school, 60 hour work weeks were how I spent my 20s and into my 30s. I decided I wasn't going to look for a new job right away - I'm tossing my stuff in storage and spending the summer from Norway to Greece. I was going to do it on a motorcycle, but was a bummer when I found out that we only get 90 days - rentals were too expensive, so I was going to buy - but the amount of time I'd get made the depreciation too great. So planes and trains are the name of the game. Back to the states for holidays and the new year, then planning on rounding out my year doing Australia / NZ / SE Asia. My biggest fear is that I'll never return to the great paying jobs that I've worked since grad school, because I'll fall so madly in love with traveling the world. Maybe our paths will cross sometime in the next year. Your videos, along with some other channels played a large role in my deciding to take time for me rather than jumping right back into another job.
Thanks for all the tips! Traveling with all this equipment can sometimes be a pain, but it is def worth it! :)
thanks guys! I have been waiting for this video! I'm traveling tomorrow! Can't wait!
Hey man, where are you travelling to? Have you ever been to Scotland? We are new Scottish youtubers and we are looking for some feedback from our content so far. We've only really filmed some videos in Scotland but would love suggestions or any comments. Would be awesome coming from another person that loves travel. Any feedback would be much appreciated. Thanks!
Great reviews thanks guys! Major help and I ended up with the peak designs everyday. I’ve been really overwhelmed with options but this was huge. Thanks again!
Man, that Vinta second edition is one stylish looking bag..
I’m going on school trip to Korea this summer!! 🇰🇷
Nice you will like it! Have you seen our Seoul Series??
What kind of school do you go to
@@JC-rp6sp The korean language program in our district has an exchange program that’s sponsored by the Korean government
@@jessemam6346 thats badass dude, how was it?
I'm all into rolltops, so can you do a comparison of these? :D
- WANDRD PRVKE
- Brevite Rolltop
- Thule Covert
The Manfrotto Manhattan is my favorite! Perfect mix between size, comfort, cool looks and smart features.
Liked and subscribed. Hero video, helpful and precisely what I've been looking for. Many people that make these videos have a complete studio and work as producers doing exclusively that. I'm looking for a all round travel-camera bag and this was so accurate. Thanks! Keep on the good work.
Cheers Diego! Hope you subscribe and stick around! Plenty more videos coming out and for you to catch up on
F-Stop FTW!
Doesn't the Peak Design have a waist strap hidden in the slide external pocket? A thin on but technically it does have one.
Piero Monteverde Yes it does! I have this bag and they are hidden away , but they’re there !
Looks like we may have missed that
It has a waist belt. Otherwise I’d never bought this backpack. 😉
Cheers for that info. I probably wouldn't get one if it didn't have a waist strap of some sort. At AU$400-ish I probably won't be running out to pick one up asap but I wouldn't mind picking one up during a sale.
It’s good see that Alex finally figured out which way the brim goes on a cap.
My camera backpack has been all around the world from the Costa Rican jungles to Alaska and Iceland. It cost 30.00 US on Amazon. It’s the Samson Basics Camera backpack WITH a built in laptop sleeve - which I never use as the most I take with me if that is my 10.5” iPad. No extra crap to weigh me down and have to worry about.
Omg, I have been searching through your video content as I am planning my frist big trip. There is so much content!! It's amazing and overwhelming all at the same time.🤗 Thanks so much for making all these wonderful videos. I'm learning so much!
Sounds like you’re in need of a solid Vagabrothers Binge Session!! Good luck planning :)
vagabrothers do you have any content on holiday travel? I'm going to be traveling over the Christmas/ New year time frame. I'm concerned about flights and back up plans and finding accommodations. I do want some flexibility but don't want to end up with no where to stay or missing out on some of the more touristy things because it might be busy. Ps going to Thailand.
I used a Lowepro Rover AW over 10yrs ago and, despite the fact that it did its job, I didn't really like it. The Lowepro Primus Minimus though (discontinued now) is a brilliant bag if you're using one body and have 2-3 other lenses plus usual accessories. Has plenty of room for a jumper, water, travel docs, etc and the zippers/openings are mostly protected or back facing. It has a side opening compartment for quick access. I've done 2 international trips with this bag and countless domestic ones and it's a great design for having access to all my travel needs at my finger tips.
These days, I've gone mirrorless and have transitioned to camera bags that snuggly fit my camera with lens attached so I can put it in any day pack and also have it over my shoulder. It's light enough to not be a burden and small enough to easily put away when I'm not shooting. The Lowepro Munich 100 and Format 120 are good, cheap cases for such a set up. This is what I like when using my 75L travel backpack with 25L day pack.
Mindshift Rotation 180 professional...this is an excellent bag...very well thought out and designed.
Thanks guys , I live in England and I just needed a backpack to work as a camera bag so I’ve bought the Lowepro backpack it’s amazing 😉.
Vinta S bags looks the best, it does not look like a camera bag at all. Fashion at its finest. You are correct about the negatives but technically youre able to place a tripod either on the side of the bag or the bottom straps (optional feature). Another good to review though is the Hexbrand Camera bags.
Those are awesome bags. Thanks for the video, so helpful. I'm currently looking for a new camera bag. This video came just in time.
Awesome! Which backpack did you like most? If you decide to purchase one please help us fund new trips and videos at no extra cost to you by using the affiliate link in the description box 🤙🏽
vagabrothers i really like the peak designs. It seems perfect. I will do that. Thank you guys so much. Going to share this video with friends.
Thanks For the review I was looking at the Peak Design and I really appreciated your take with both the pros and cons.
Amazing video!I love you guys!
Awww thank you Teodora!
Some great tips in here and a nice variety of bags!
Cheers!! Do you have a camera backpack?
vagabrothers unfortunately not one that is travel friendly! It's a lowepro one made for video so it's extremely large and heavy, been needing to pick up a smaller one for a while. Downsizing my canon to the Sony a7iii so will have a much smaller rig and I'll be getting a smaller bag for the travels :)
1min in the video and im subscribing to you. Well done.
Thank you for the review guys, really interesting!
May I suggest an entry to this list ? The Mindshift 180 Horizon in my opinion kills them all!
Being a travel addict, I've been looking for a bagpack big and convenient enough to store all my gear, but most of all access it easily and oh boy is it easy and convenient to access my gear with this bag.
At this point I have to highlight that I am not sponsored in any way haha.
The bag is comfortable and big enough (took it for a 5days trek in the himalayas) but still cabin size, and all your gear can be accessed and manipulated while walking without removing the bag from your back!! (you should watch a video of how it works as the system is hard to describe).
There are different sizes, but my version (horizon) fits my Sony A6000 with 16-70 lens on, my 70-200 (detached from the body), plus 3 other lenses and one extra battery. Yes, all this fits in the belt compartment, hence I have plenty of room left for my other stuff in the top compartment.
The bag is pricey, but I've used it so much and taken it to so many places that it's definitely worth every buck in my opinion.
Please tell me what you think of it :)
You can also have a look at my insta should you be interested: "_theo.photo_"
1 am in aus about to go to bed ... vagabrother video goes live... 😃 bed can wait
Sarah - you’re a legend!
Great video guys 👌 !! Loving that usefull content!
PS : Marko your backpack modeling skill is STRONG 😂👍
Great video, saw some bags I hadn’t heard about. What do you guys think about the Wandrd travel bags?
Haven’t heard of that bag
Awesome video, thank you guys.
Awesome video! Very informative
Thanks! You guys rock!
Wow guys great job, I really liked this video and was what I was looking for. I needed to buy someone a camera bag and I know they also like the bag that are accessed from the back. I have sub and can't wait to see more from you guys.
The Sukha is great! I have had it for a few years now, and it's as you guys say it. Just when I fly with the low cost airlines its a bit sketchy to make it look as small as possible hahaha.
I've got the Sukha, too, but man, I've *never* tried to fly with that thing! I have heard of those who regularly fly with the Tilopa, but apparently that's even a pretty near thing. Love the Sukha, too; it's an awesome bag!

You guys inspired me to learn spanish and eventually travel to spain! any suggestions, as I am only about a month into my lessons? Learned in high school, but can honestly say I do not remember much. Graduating college in May and planning on hammering some more spanish lessons this summer prior to traveling! Thank you guys, keep exploring!
Have you watched our video in Spanish? We speak about how to learn best :)
I will check it out! Thanks guys!
Good reviews of the bags...couple of corrections about the peak design everyday bag, though, which I have: it does expand 8 liters, but it expands from 12L to 20L...the “20L” name is for the max capacity. And, it does have a hip belt, tucked away in the side water-bottle pockets. It’s not padded but it’s better than nothing.
I bought Peak Design 31l, it suits me perfectly. Maybe because i just have one camera + 2 lenses, and gives me so much freedom to add whatever i want on the outside.
great vlog guys really helpful .....all insights
I use a back pack for every day things. I think I will l move stuff from the front pouch now. Often thought it might be not good idea but your video brings it home how someone can undo that front pouch. Thanks for making sharing.
Camera cubes are extra convenient to swipe.
Nice and informative video. You showed some very nice bags I may get one for a second one. My all-time favorite and what I use all the time for all my gear is a MindShift gear rotation 180 professional.
Great info, we needed a video like this! Did you say that the 70-liter is carry-on approved?? If so, I'm on that, but that'd be my main concern (only traveling with carry-on luggage).
F-Stop is the absolute best!
You should check out the Wandrd Prvke! I just bought their 31L (expandible up to 36L), and it's pre-tty cool :)
agreed! I bought the 21L and I am going to travel RTW with it. I wonder (pun) why they didn't mention it!
The PRVKE is as close to a perfect bag as I’ve ever owned.
Hey guys! I have a recommendation.
The bag I'm recommending is the Kattee professional DSLR bag found here: www.amazon.com/dp/B01LC1GN7Y/ref=twister_B07C3L764D
It's super cheap but it's good for people who don't do photography professionally but still want a camera backpack. Because it's cheap, it has a few downsides like no hip straps, it's pretty small, it's not accessible from the back it's not waterproof, etc. However, it fits a 15" laptop, has a waterproof rain cover, tripod straps, etc. This would be more for reeeeally small trips but I thought it was worth mentioning. There's also a similar one by Beaspire that's also cheap which can be found here: www.amazon.com/Professional-Waterproof-Multifunctional-Resistant-Accessories/dp/B01JOVOJM0/ref=sr_1_17?s=photo&ie=UTF8&qid=1523728874&sr=1-17&keywords=camera+backpack I don't have this bag so I can't vouch for it though. Anyway, I love your videos and have been waiting for one like this! Happy travels!
Do you have any video in best travel backpacks that qualify for as personal item? Not sure if I missed it.
Great video guys, who doesn't love a good backpack?
I got myself a bobby backpack this year, its a nice light minimalist pack
💚 great video!!
I have the Peak Design 30L and it has a thin waist strap that you can shove in the side pockets. Also check out the Tenba BYOB camera inserts, they sell a packable messenger bag to go with the inserts.
Nice!! Do you like the bag?
Yeah, it's a great bag, can hold a lot of camera gear, really comfortable. Side access is key to getting to your equipment without having to take of the backpack.
I'm not sure of it was stated but the peak design does a small waist strap that comes out of the side pockets
🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Yea it does have a waist strap.
Thank you so much for this video! How did you know I needed this info? ;-)
It’s that time of year Meghan!
I guess the best camera backpack imo is the Wandrd Prvke. You should check it out 🤙🏼
You guys are the best!
Great video! I've been looking for something like this for awhile. My wife and I are planning a Thailand and Tokyo trip for this summer. Need to find new camera bag
You guys should check out these newly released travel camera bags from the Company WANDRD. They have a day pack series called PRVKE and a new duffle series. I'm looking into getting their 31L model as a day pack. I currently use the Fstop Tilopa and absolutely love it, but its just a bit too big for certain things.
Thanks a ton vagabrothers!!
Cheers!!!
Would love to see a review on the Thule aspect bag
Awesome thanks!!
Great timing on the video guys! I’m searching for a bag i can use along with my Osprey Farpoint 55 and substitute the Osprey day bag for either a new bag or my current plan is see if I can get small pouches for my 2 camera’s and see if they fit in my Osprey day bag. The peak design is on my list and a few other bags from amazon. Do you’ll still travel carry on only?
Beautiful color grading! Next, how to shoot travel videos? And how to make them look pretty!
Can’t give away ALL our secrets ;)
We ranked best dslr camera backpack for 2019. Here are these..
1. Lowepro ProTactic BP 350 AW II backpack
2. Thule Aspect DSLR Backpack
3. Manfrotto Gitzo Adventury 30L camera backpack
4. Lowepro Fastpack 250 AW II Backpack
5. InCase DSLR Pro Pack
You can’t make a video like this without Think Tank and MindShift Gear bags. Just my opinion.
Agreed. Mindshift (30L owner) all the way........
This was good, need a backpack that can pack some clothes and the camera gear so the almost last backpack that comes in green and black. I think i liked that alot. I'm gonna save this video so I can come back to it 😊
Nice video guys! :) since you're covering daypacks i'll recommend the lowepro flipside trek series and lowepro packs in general! :D cheers! Andy
take a look at shimoda designs bags too for travel/outdoor use. bags that transfer weight to hips are better. i still prefer hiking backpacks with ebay camera bag inserts. just as easy to carry gear securely with quick access, more versatile, carry weight better, and almost always cost less.
osprey packs happen to fit me well but are heavier. i like using packs with front zippers or bottom zippers (for sleeping bag) for camera bag insert. zpacks with front zippers are great when i want to go light with camera gear.
a very helpful video, thx :)
Mis the LowePro protactic 350 or 450 awII!!! I use that backpack as my travel backpack works great steardy safe afainst thiefs. And I put cloths and other travel stuff in it. Works amazing for me.
The peak design its 12L, expandable to 20L. Not 20L to 28L. And the 30L it’s about 18L without expanding it. That makes a pretty big difference. Thank you for the video! You should check out the Wndrd bags as well.
I'm obsessed with bags so I really enjoyed this review. Have you ever checked out the WANDR bags? I'd be curious what you think of those. I have the PRVKE bag and absolutely love it.
THULE DSLR Rolltop Backback all the way.
The peak design is like a trembling leaf compared to that THULE beast
What would you recommend a max Liter size for a year of travel? I have a Sony rx100v so I don't have a big camera, but I do have other gear
So I'm planning on traveling around the world 6+ months. I'm settling on the Fstop 70L bag. What are your thoughts on packing a day backpack with it? Which daypack would you recommend, the peak design? Also, I'm planning on bringing a musical instrument(s) (probably flute and/or soprano sax), what are your thoughts on this? Thanks!
I loved Peak Designs Everyday Backpack :)
I'm a fan of Peak Design. But those F -Stop bags are looking pretty good. I LOVE the backpacks that have rear camera access. I have the K&F Concept - DSLR Camera Travel Backpack. AWESOME BP. It's only about $69.99. Comes with a rain fly. On the plus side, it doesn't LOOK like a camera BP. It's just I'm just out growing it. : (
hy guys u rock m from india.. love to see u.. :)
Thanks Rahul!
Those FStop bags look sweet! I use a Lowe Pro Pro Tactic -- I love it for the camera carry potential but can't fit clothes.
I was wondering is the sukha compatible for carry on? im a photographer and am trying to find a well made bag that can hold my camera gear but also double as a backpacking bag and carry on international travel bag. Have yall used this as a carry on and what tips do you recommend
We have always carried this bag on - even though it is technically bigger than regulation you can really tighten it down and compact it a lot to fit in almost all overheads and if you can’t you can always remove your ICU and gate check the bag. 🤙🏽
vagabrothers thanks a lot guys! Can't you carry one one backpack and one small bag? So I could take out the icu and just carry it until I get on the plane right?
great review! Do you know which one is big enough to fit a 17" laptop? thanks
Have yall looked into the Atlas Athlete? I like the idea of packing in cubes and then being able to pull all my personal stuff out at the hostel and sinching it down and being able to use it as a thinner day pack. Can;t decide if that's the best option or buying a 40L Gregory and also getting the peak design everyday 5L sling for my gear. 2-3 lens set up.
As always great video and thanks for the tips :)
Nice video. Thanks! Why no Lowepro or Mindshift gear packs? Both make great backpacks.
Honorable mention Wandrd series are pretty sweet
How those F-stop backpacks compare to Peak Design Travel 45L?
Nice video guys. I would highly recommend Shimoda Designs bags. It was a very successful kickstarter last year. I find them more comfortable that my F-Stop bags. And one of F-Stops former designers created the bags so he has similar design elements.
Looking for a really good work camera travel. Digital nomad bag. (Basically. I am looking for something with a double laptop compartment.) any ideas? Like.... What is the "Back to School" bag for a photographer? Laptop, full size notebook, camera, 2 lens, and a decent stuff compartment.
