Camera Backpack For Europe Backpacking

I used this backpacking and camping and have it clipped to my day hiking backpack.

I am backpacking Europe for 10 days and this bag is more than enough space for the trip! love the design and all sorts of pockets

Love the bag. After backpacking through Europe I know the advantage of having a small bag that will fit inside another bag. This bag is the best bag for it. You can collapse and expand one side of the bag.

I got this for a 5 night 45 mile backpack trip in the High Sierra so I could get DSLR shots while hiking, not just at camp. It worked great and did not bounce around with the Nikon D750 and 18-35mm G lens I was using. It was a bit difficult to attach it to my full sized backpack strap but it did go on and then was secure for the whole trip. I was using hiking poles and the camera did not get in the way of the poleing motion. I even kept it attached while climbing over boulders on some off-trail passes. My only negative is that the sliding/snapping action did get less smooth after a few days. This could be due to tiny chips in the finish after sliding it in over and over. This is a must have for backpacking with a DSLR. I've been on lots of trips where my big camera sits in my pack all day and only gets used at camp or maybe at lunch and I have a point and shoot in my pocket for quick shots while on the move. I can now get DSLR shots while hiking and even faster than pulling a small camera or phone out of my pocket. The clip is a game changer for hiking and backpacking, the only problem is now I have even more shots to sort through.

Bought this primarily for hiking and backpacking. Was worried my backpack straps would be too thick, but PD includes a longer set of screws to accommodate thicker straps. So far I am very happy as the clip stays put and doesn't slide and I do not find my mirrorless camera flops around either, it stays in position and is very comfortable, even on a thinner strapped Camelback style pack. Definitely a great way to maintain easy access to your camera while putting miles down on the trail.

I love my Op/Tech Super Classic Strap for my camera. It's the most comfortable shoulder strap that I've worn. But when backpacking, camera straps and backpacking harnesses sometimes get in the way of each other-- especially if you have a hydration line coming out of the backpack. The nice thing about these backpack connectors is that they have the same buckles as my Op/Tech camera strap. So I can unbuckle the top half of the strap (the part that wraps around your shoulders) and buckle the camera directly to these instead. It's quick and convenient.

It can be an all around backpack for traveling, backpacking/adventure, or everyday backpack depending on your gears, for me I can easily pack my camera/film gears such as gimbals, drone, gopro, extra batteries, laptop, lenses and other essentials.

As the title suggests, this is the backpack I’ve been waiting for. It is exactly what I’ve been looking for, for backpacking multiple days in the backcountry with my camera. The camera cube it comes with holds my Z7ii, 14-24 2.8, 24-120 f4 and 70-200 2.8. That said, when doing a lot of miles in a day, I usually only bring the 14-24 and 24-120. This is definitely a niche pack in that it is for backpacking with camera gear. It shouldn’t be confused with a hiking or “outdoor” camera backpack where the focus is being able to carry just camera gear and then some odds and ends. This bag can hold your sleeping back, tent, tripod and whatever else you made need. Material feels substantial and the straps and harness feel great. Highly recommend.

I made the right choice for me. I wanted a manageable backpack camera bag to carry on board for travel to Europe. The leather is a plus and the content size fits my needs. My previous Manfrotto case was larger but the zipper broke in two years. Tenba has a 5 year warranty.

Used this backpack for about a month in Europe. Liked being able to keep the big back at the hotel and use the little one throughout the day.
