Hi all,
After rapidly realising my shoulder bag is doing my back no favours whatsoever, I'm looking for a backpack. Ideally one with laptop storage, and certainly small enough for EDIT: carry-on luggage.
As I go walking / hiking, i'd ideally like room to carry stuff more important than the camera should I end up stuck out on a hill, however, I could squeeze this in large side pockets, or in liu of a couple of lenses.
Camera-wise, I have a 5DII with a 24-105L usually on it, and would expect to carry a 70-200L, 180mm L macro, and a sigma 12-24 or 17-40L. Also possibly a 85mm and nifty fifty, and maybe a flash squeezed in somewhere. And a tripod on the outside. And filters and bits and bobs...
The bag I'd been looking at in my local camera shop was Lowepro Pro Trekker 300, which was doing OK up until when I saw the price. I really can't justify that sort of money on a bag.
Does anyone here recommend any alternatives, as the Pro Trekker 300 was great, apart from the price...
Cheers,
Mark
