VSGO20L Professional Camera Backpack for DSLR/SLR, Compatible with Sony Canon Nikon Cameras, DJI RSC2 Gimbals, Tripod, 15.6" Laptop, Lenses & Accessories – Waterproof TPU Canvas, Travel & Outdoor Use

This backpack is incredible! I’ve used it as a camera backpack and also use for everyday carry. Well built, very comfortable, comes with a rain cover, plenty of pockets and dividers. The best backpack I’ve used.

I'm SO grateful that I bought this bag just before a photography trip to Ireland. I swear it was attached to my body the entire time through rain, hail, mud, sun...you name it. And IN the bag I carried so much. At any given time the bag held:* Mirrorless camera* 2 lenses* Headphones* Notepad + pen* 3 batteries* 2 battery chargers* 2 sets of 6 ND filters* Snacks (bag of almonds, RX Bars, etc.)* Tons of cords* Money* Travel-size tripod* Laptop* Paperback book* PassportI know I'm forgetting stuff because I've been back from my trip for 7 weeks now, but it holds a lot!Because of all the things I stuffed in there, the bag was heavy and my left shoulder hurt a bit at times. I used the center clasp to alleviate the pressure and was grateful it existed!What else...oh, I love that it always stands straight up when you set it down. I love that it repelled rain often and nothing inside got wet. I love how sexy it is.Cons:The main zipper connecting the rear compartment has little clasps that hold them together. One broke easily and I had to send the bag back for new one. There were no issues returning the bag.The magnet could be a bit stronger. I often fumbled trying to connect it BUT, I did have a ton of stuff shoved in the top compartment so...maybe that was part of the problem.Definitely buy this bag!

This backpack is definitely a hidden gem on amazon. If you are looking for a good looking camera backpack with unique design, versatile and practical at the same time, this is it. The built quality is solid, premium materials, not flimsy at all.Some of the features I like:1. Both top and bottom compartments offer large storage space. I can put in a camera with 70-200 zoom lens on it.2. Water proof fabric all over3. Side opening quick access is useful4. The attached metal nameplate can be used as a wrench, which really surprised meThings that can be improved:1. Need more color options2. The instructions manual can be better. It took me a while to figure out all those functions

Let me preface and say I DO really like this bag for the sake of an everyday carry. I personally like the urban design of it, but also has a downside to that that I don’t much care for. Some pieces feel high quality and durable, while other important important aspects definitely have some concerns.I was deciding between this as a cheaper option in comparison to the McKinnon bag, but unfortunately I personally feel you’re better off going for that bag or the OneMo (I need top access) that check more of my boxes.Pros:Stands on its own!!!Top & Side Access (with a caveat). To have any meaningful divider structure the side access can get covered.Magnets!!! The magnetic lock and magnetic pouches are pretty satisfying.Functional tool tag for tripods with dedicated carabiner/gate latch.Lots of pouches dedicated battery pouch for up to 3 batteries. Side pouches.Included weather cover.Clam-Shell Design that does not require full open to get to your laptop. Just unzip from the top and go in and grab.Fairly comfortable all things considered, but the shoulder strap orientation is narrow. I can say the bag distributes weight really well.Cons:Poor quality in weather sealing on zippers. I am used to a perfect seal on more premium bags, but this one has weird issue of the weather sealing pulling apart and you have to pull the zipper back and forward again to reseal only for it to creep back out. I personally don’t feel this is a huge issue, but it does give me pause on my willingness to test it in inclement weather.My unit had fraying in the stitching out of the box.Side pockets do not expand that far. Great for carrying tripod, but 1 liter plastic bottles barely cram in. Forget my 40oz hiking bottle.Side access can be covered due to divider layout. Not a problem if you don’t care for side access like myself.Top access cannot be height adjusted for more or less compartment space in the dedicated gear section. Either it’s deep or it’s nothing. This cuts into the amount of gear you can carry.Main gear compartment feels way too compact and not a lot of room for adjustment. Had to turn my camera sideways to account for anything else and the divides are a hassle at best.This is targeted for the urban market. I doubt this would hold up well in any intense hikes. The material is hit or miss in thickness and doesn’t feel THAT durable, but I may be underestimating it. Feels like a it is trying to be tarpaulin but is likely a textured pleather material. It doesn’t FEEL rugged. Also, the weird branding and designs on the tool make me think more of a “gamer” and less photographer.

I’ve had and have over 20 different camera bags, I’m a bag whore. I’m a wedding photographer and need to carry my laptop with me. I don’t carry a lot of gear but 2-3 lenses plus accessories and a laptop which often meant one of those low pro bags or the rather expensive McKinnon bag, which I did try. This bag is the bees knees in terms of quality and organization. Very well made and the quality shows throughout the bag. The designers thought of everything from zip pulls and and locks to weather resistant zippers. Stand out features include the fact that you can stand the backpack upright without it toppling to the floor.The top part of the bag can fit a lot of stuff from books to a whole other camera body or drone. Also, this doesn’t look like a camera bag. It has such a low profile that you don’t notice you’ve packed a day’s worth of gear inside.Overall this is the best camera backpack I have ever purchased. And for those who are thinking about the McKinnon backpack - save $200 and by this instead, it’s that good.
