What camera bag would you recommend for me?
I’m looking for a travel backpack where I can keep my camera, laptop, & other small stuff (like water, purse, phone etc) whilst travelling. I was considering the Lowepro CompuRover AW, but have seen it and it is quite big. Another one I considered was the Crumpler Sinking Barge model – however, there doesn’t seem to be a tripod holder on the bag. The build quality however, is excellent. I’ve ready that this bag isn’t all the comfortable??
Has anybody had experience using these backpacks for a whole day? Was it comfortable? I’m 5’4″, so I need to find something that fits my frame as well as equipment!! Recommendation appreciated!
Camera equipment:
- DSL with 28-75mm lens
- 70-200mm lens (possibly)
- 10-12mm lens
- battery charger
- tripod/monopod holder
Computer equipment
- 13″ notebook
- charger
If these two bags are your only considerations, its really important to stop to think about what kind of traveling you will be doing. I personally believe that the Lowepro CompuRover is a much sturdier and well constructed backpack that has more than enough room for the equipment you plan to be carrying (which can be a good and bad thing). It has a lower support brace that really takes the weight off the top of your shoulders and helps if you are shooting off the paved road because your bag wont swing around as you go. The tripod holder is useful, but to be honest I never got to using it more than a couple times, preferring to carry my tripod instead as a balancing tool when walking/hiking to shoots. I’ve personally never encountered a situation where i’ve needed the weather proofing, but its comforting to know that its there
The crumpler is a great bag too, but much more tame in comparison, none of the bells and whistles that lowepro has always been known to throw in. Should you still choose pick up the 70-200, it should still fit into the bag fine, and being that you are 5’4″, this may very well be the better choice of bags for you. The lowepro is large by any standards
If you want the best of both worlds, Lowepro has another line of backpack called the compudaypack that a friend of mine uses. Very roomy, but cuts back on alot of the ruggedness the rover has. Its also significantly cheaper I believe
Best of luck to you in your decision!
