Thoughts on my next backpack (feddit.nu)

I am looking for a new backpack for every day carry where I always want my camera gear with me (a DSLR, a filter and a couple of extra lenses).

I am looking at the Ramverk Pro Backpack (26L) with their small camera insert.

I like:

  • The simplicity
  • The design
  • The large main compartment
  • Being able to simply add or remove all camera gear by adding or removing the camera insert

I don't like:

  • No water bottle holder
  • No quick access to camera
  • To few images showcasing the insert in the bag

Do any of you have this setup? Do you like it?

Would you recommend something else?

I like a lot of Peak Design stuff, but their backpacks are designed for small people and are pretty heavy at the same time. I'm 6'4" and a bit barrel-chested, and the padded part of the straps stops right at my armpits, which is extremely uncomfortable.

Really? I'm 6'5" and I have the large one (I think 30L vs the smaller 20L?) and I don't have any problems with it. Fits very well.

I did use the 20L. I have a similar issue with the 5L cross-body bag. I dunno, maybe it's not just my height, but my shoulders, arms, and chest. It's not a problem I have with the other backpacks I use from Timbuk2, Osprey, or Arc'teryx.
