So I think I need something around a 30-40L pack. Other stuff I'll be carrying - rain coats, maybe one other layer for everyone, water bottles (1-2L), snacks, emergency diapers (for the kiddo obviously), kindle, laptop, misc charger cables. Hotshoe cell phone mount (for DSLR controller - time lapse, intervalometer, etc) My camera gear is as follows:Ĭanon 70D (no battery grip, but I do have a Peak Design Capture clip attached to it at all times - the clip will likely be on the shoulder strap though, so only the plate on the camera when I'm using this bag)Ĭanon 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM (mk1) w/hood (reversed is fine)Ĭanon 17-55mm f/2.8 IS USM w/hood (reversed is fine)Ĭanon 10-18mm f/4.5-5.6 IS STM w/hood (reversed is fine)ħ7mm circular polarizer and step down ringĬanon EF 12 and 25 II extension tubes (can stack, or just bring one) So, it needs to haul my camera gear, and maybe about that same volume again of other stuff. I plan to keep this pack for a very long time, and until the kids are all 5-6 years old or so, I think my situation will be the same on every trip we take. I am going with my pregnant wife and 2 year old son, so the bag needs to be able to carry some extra stuff besides just my camera gear.
I will be carrying it with me whenever we're not sitting every day. However, I need this bag for a 2-week trip to Alaska (land/sea cruise with excursions). This will be my camera bag first and foremost.
I've been putting so many hours into finding one that my head is spinning, so now that I have an idea of what I want and what's out there, I thought I would run it by you guys to see if you think this is a good choice. Can't blame anyone because of the wide array of uses they need to design for, but it sure doesn't make picking one any easier. I have searched to the end of the internet and back, and I am now well aware that there is no such thing as a perfect camera bag - no way, no how.
