I currently have a LowePro Protactic 450AW II, which is quite nice and transports a decent amount of gear plus things to eat and drink. Their strap system where you can attach additional thingies on the outside is also quite nice. Works for example great to carry of playground toys around as well when i go there with the kid ;-)
All in all it works well for anything up to maybe 2-3h walks, but would not be good for longer hikes. Also it’s look might definitely not be for everyone.
So i was wondering what other people have, like and dislike about that.
I have a bunch of bags (accumulated over the years) and will change to whatever makes the most sense for a given situation. Unfortunately I don’t know any makes and models off the top of my head. But they range from a bag that can hold a DSLR and a normal 24-70ish lens, a few batteries, and not much else, to a backpack that will haul the body and three or four lenses, hoods, flash, grip, tripod strapped to the outside, etc.
I can’t even remember what my usual bag is. I think it came with my D750 kit.
