Society Review: A Camera Backpack That Grows With Your Gear

Reviewed by Anna Homb | She Shoots Society Member

When I first got my camera, the standard bag that came with it did the job. Once I added a second camera and more lenses, I needed something easier to carry and organize. I switched to a camera backpack, and it’s been a much better fit for the gear I bring to a shoot.

What I love

The cushioned straps are comfortable and don’t dig into my shoulders, even when I’m carrying both cameras. It also comes in a variety of colors, which is a nice change from the usual basic camera bag.

The padded main compartment has removable dividers that Velcro into place. I can rearrange them to fit the equipment I’m bringing that day instead of working around a fixed layout. The whole interior is padded, which gives me more peace of mind when I’m on the move.

There’s a separate zippered section at the back that works well for a laptop, tablet, or folder of release forms. Two exterior pockets keep water bottles and other essentials within reach. Up top, the drawstring compartment is handy for batteries, SD cards, and the little things I need to grab quickly.

What could be better

The main compartment may be too shallow for larger lenses, so I’d check the dimensions against your gear before buying. The Velcro dividers also don’t reach completely from edge to edge. Small items, especially lens caps, can slip behind them and take a little hunting to find.

The verdict

For a photographer carrying multiple cameras and lenses, this backpack offers comfortable straps, useful pockets, and a layout you can change as your kit grows. It has a couple of storage quirks, but it’s made carrying my gear much easier than the bag I started with.
