Another backpack related post, but with a different emphasis. I think I'd describe myself as a mountain hiker with a side-helping of photographer rather than the other way round, it's one of the reasons I've gone down the M43 route (and I'm exceedingly happy with that decision).
As my kit is expanding (tripod, filter kit, uwa, telephoto...), I'm beginning to run out of space in my standard day pack. I've been looking at dedicated camera rucksacks, but find that they all seem to be a bit of a compromise vis a vis hiking rucksacks (as well as costing an arm and a leg). Do any of you have much experience with day hiking with camera rucksacks? Anything you'd recommend? Any features you wouldn't do without?
I'm tending towards a slightly bigger standard rucksack but perhaps with a third party insert.
Any thoughts?
