Large Capacity Camera Backpack With Laptop Compartment - Men Travel Professional Camera Backpack With Tripod Bracket

The second bag is the problem

The camera bag holds the camera. It does not hold your laptop, your jacket, your lunch, or the wet jacket you took off. So you carry a second bag. Then, on a travel day, a third one on wheels — and now you are the person at the gate with a strap in each hand and a lens rolling around loose somewhere.

This is one bag with two halves. A padded, walled camera bay on one side. A proper travel compartment on the other, with the laptop in its own sleeve behind both. It is the difference between packing for a shoot and packing for a day.

A full kit, in one bay, at the same time

Not a body and a spare lens. In the manufacturer's own loading demonstration, two DSLR bodies, three lenses, a speedlight and a battery grip all go into the main bay together, with chargers and batteries in the small bays and notebooks in the organiser panel on the lid.

The walls are thick padded dividers that peel off and reposition wherever you want them. Set a long bay for a telephoto with the body still attached. Split it into small squares for primes. Pull the walls out altogether and the bay becomes one padded box for a drone and its controller.

The other half is just a good travel bag

The upper front compartment opens like a suitcase and takes what you would otherwise carry separately: a folded jacket, a water bottle, a notebook, headphones, a charger pouch. Its lid has a mesh zip pocket and flat slip pockets for the small things that always end up loose. Underneath it, a separate pocket lined in wipe-clean foil holds the wet jacket, the damp towel or the flask — away from anything with glass in it.

The laptop is nowhere near the lenses

The back panel unzips to its own padded compartment, with a full-width sleeve for a laptop and a slimmer slot in front of it for a tablet or documents. It sits flat against your spine, separated from the gear bay, so a lens barrel is never pressing into the lid and you are not unpacking a camera to get a laptop out at security.

The tripod goes on the outside, where it belongs

A folded tripod or light stand stands vertically against the side panel, feet in a pocket at the bottom corner, body held by a webbing strap and buckle you can tighten one-handed. It never eats into the interior, and it does not swing when you walk. On the opposite side there are two metal clip loops for anything that hangs.

On a travel day it stops being a backpack

A webbing strap runs across the back panel, so the pack drops straight onto the extended handle of a rolling case and rides there, level and hands-free, through the terminal. That is the small thing you notice at hour three of a travel day — and it is the reason this can be the only bag you carry onto a plane.

Five compartments, one bag

• Main camera bay. Padded shell, removable padded dividers, opens flat
• Laptop compartment. Separate rear-panel zip, laptop sleeve plus a tablet slot
• Travel compartment. Clamshell opening, mesh and slip pockets in the lid
• Wet and dry pocket. Foil-lined, at the base of the front face
• Flap pocket. Stud-closed, front and centre, for the things you grab first
• Oxford / polyester shell with thickened padded partitions, side tripod strap and luggage pass-through

Comfortable at the fourth hour, not the first

Any bag is fine for ten minutes. A loaded camera kit is heavy in a way a laptop bag is not, and it is heavy for the whole day. Wide contoured shoulder straps spread it, an adjustable sternum strap stops the straps walking off your shoulders when you are moving fast, and the back panel is channelled and mesh-covered so air can get between you and the load.

In the box

The backpack in black, and its set of removable padded dividers. A rain cover is not included, and no tripod, camera or laptop is included.

Frequently asked questions

How much gear does it actually hold?

The manufacturer's loading demonstration puts two DSLR bodies, three lenses, a speedlight and a battery grip into the main bay at once, plus chargers and batteries in the smaller bays. A more typical load — one body with a lens mounted, two or three spare lenses and a flash — leaves bays spare for filters and cards.

Will it take a 70-200mm lens?

Yes. Move the dividers to open one long bay for it, either mounted to the body or stored on its own.

What size laptop fits?

It is a full-width sleeve built for a standard large clamshell laptop, with a separate slimmer slot in front for a tablet. We have not measured a sample against a stated inch rating, so we are not going to quote one. If you carry a 16 or 17 inch machine, message us before you order and we will check it for you.

Is it waterproof?

No, and we would rather say so. The shell is an oxford / polyester fabric with no water-resistance rating we can stand behind, the zips are standard exposed zips, and no rain cover is included. Treat it as a bag that will shrug off a light shower on the walk to the car, and carry a separate rain cover if you shoot in real weather.

Does it fit as carry-on?

It is built as a travel pack and rides on a suitcase handle, but it is a large one and cabin limits differ by airline and aircraft. Check your carrier's dimensions before you fly, and count on it being a full-size personal item rather than something that slides under every seat.

Can I get to the camera without taking the bag off?

Swing it round on one strap and open the main bay — the standard one-shoulder move. There is no side hatch for blind access with the bag still on both shoulders.

Will it work for a drone instead of a camera?

Yes. The dividers lift out completely and the main bay becomes one padded box for an airframe, a controller and battery packs.
