Film Camera For Backpacking

I bought this on a whim so could bring my Pentax K1000 film camera with me on a backpacking trip. I hated using the neck strap on long hikes. This clip caught my attention. It's not very wide, so I had to find the best spot to attach it to my 40L bag. With some squeezing, I got it affixed to my backpack. I hung my Pentax off the clip for 4 days and even transferred it to my daypack. It felt snug and secure. Not once did it feel like it would fall off. I'll have to buy another one so I can carry another camera on my trip. Solid product.

This is the perfect camera take hiking or backpacking. Super pictures every time!

I bought this for a backpacking trip because my capture clip really drags on my shoulder over longer hikes. My camera was balanced and accessible from my chest strap (fits on the chest strap of a backpacking pack and the waist strap of a day pack). The carabiners are a little too small to get on/off the strap easily, but that may be intentional because if you absent-mindedly unclip your pack, the pod cannot pass over the plastic clip meaning your camera can't slide off onto the ground. It didn't get wet but I had it at camp for days with some desiccant packets inside and never had humidity issues. The large just fits my Nikon Z6 and 24-200mm lens *with* the lens hood on. I also had a hand strap attached which made the camera easy to grab and pull out of the bag. It's also great for when you need to put your camera into your pack - it's lightly padded and I'm hopeful the water resistance is legit because I've had hydration bladders leak on multiple occasions. It's well thought out and multifunctional, I'm pleased with it.

I've been using CC for a few years, and like it a lot for backpacking, hiking, rock climbing, and biking. I really like how it distributes the weight, and keeps the camera stable, but also safe during active movement. This new vest is more easily adjustable. It also uses a new hub, which is backwards computable with other CC holsters and such, however, the old hub does not work with this vest. I found that out when dashing out without changing my hub when I received the new vest :). I also use CC's adapter plate, so I can use the hub and tripod head at the same time. All in all, its a nice solution. If I'm just wandering around town, however, I tend not to dock my camera with a cc, and just use a standard strap over my neck/torso. The hub/plate does have a connection for a sling strap if that is your preference.

It's a great little tripod, that can actually hold a fair amount of weight, all things considered. I use it backpacking and hiking with my RB67, which is a beast of a camera, and it acquits itself very well. The way it can get low to the ground by positioning the center column at a right angle to the body and splaying the legs is a neat trick--though admittedly this is one time the heavy camera is too much for the poor thing. But it is a travel tripod, after all.

I purchased this lens to use on an A6000, which is my primary backpacking camera due to its size. I wanted a small, lightweight wide angle lens and decided to try the Samyang. For its primary use, wide landscape shots, I am very happy with it. It's accurate at the infinity stop (where it spends 99% of its time) and more than sharp enough when stopped down. I find f5.6 to f11 the best aperture range for my use. Feels solidly built. I do not shoot video, so I can't comment on video use.

I bought this camera cause I wanted a Full Frame camera and the size makes it perfect to have in any bag. From a backpacking bag to the trail running vest, plus it doesn't take up space. The pictures that I get with this camera are phenomenal! I have used it from product photography as well as for adventure photography and it is amazing.

This is essential if you are backpacking with a camera. It keeps the camera safe and ready. Now I don't have to worry about scrambling up rocks and having the camera on a strap lean into the rocks. It takes the weight off your neck when you aren't using the camera. I borrowed my neighbors for a 50 mile trip in Yosemite and decided to buy my own.

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.

I use it for backpacking. It works with my Sony A6000 camera. High quality product and super light.
