Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
This is a very well thought out bag that really stands out from others in its class. For someone like me, who travels with their gear and does a good bit of hiking and camping, a rugged bag is essential.
The organizational possibilities are endless with this pack. The interior is composed of numerous foam components (coated in soft felt) equipped with Velcro. It is super easy to rearrange the padding inside to give any lens a snug fit. I threw in my 200mm zoom and 1.4 prime lenses today, quickly readjusted the padding, zipped it up, and I was out the door without a worry. Of course, I still had room for about four other lenses. I also had my 20-year-old Minolta camera in there, and the design of the hammock and the way the padding angled around the camera body gave it a very secure fit. The memory foam designed to sit on top of the camera body is dense, but it is covered in felt and seems safe enough to have pressed against the display screen of a DSLR. In short, there is no need to worry about harming your gear with this pack, which is important because many of us don't have the most rugged equipment in the world. The padding also gives me peace of mind for hauling my laptop around. My 15.4" laptop fits like a glove in its designated spot and the padding extends to all sides of the compartment (even on top where it zips).
I have taken this pack with me on a trek through the snow on one occasion. I had no problem or hesitation setting it down in the snow. The bottom is very durable and waterproof, and the pack does not easily tip over. I've even packed it lopsided and had some of the flaps hanging open, and it still didn't tip.
While the main features of this pack are great, the little things Caselogic added are a nice touch. Aside from the main two compartments (for camera equipment and laptop), the ancillary compartments on this bag are useful. There are two pockets on the inside flap of the camera compartment and several pockets accessible from the outside. Each of these has its own padding to some degree, and within most of the pockets are different sized pouches just right for fitting any type of smaller equipment (e.g., batteries, film, memory cards, lens filters). The tripod straps on the outside of the bag seem very durable and large enough to hold most any sized tripod, although I have not yet tried taking one out with me. Finally, it helps that the shoulder straps are padded. When this bag is loaded with a laptop and photo equipment, it gets pretty heavy, and it helps that the full length of the straps are padded.
There's not a lot to complain about with this pack. In fact, I only have one gripe, and it is too minor to merit the loss of a star from my rating. With the amount of padding on the back of this bag, it's going to press against your back when you have it loaded, and it doesn't take long to build up a sweat. It would have been nice to see Caselogic design this pack with an airflow system that holds the pack just far enough off your back to let air through (like with newer hiking backpacks). Maybe that will be the next step. For now, though, this concern is too minor for me to complain.
Description of Case Logic SLRC-206 SLR Camera and 15.4-Inch Laptop Backpack (Black)The Case Logic SLRC-206 SLR Camera Backpack with laptop storage is designed to hold all your photographic journey essentials. The camera compartment holds most SLR bodies up to 10.4' x 4.7' x 5.6' with an attached lens up to 9.8 in length. The Laptop compartment measures 15.4x 10.4 x 1 to hold most 16 PC laptops or a 17 MacBook Pro. Materials include a heavy-gauge nylon exterior and a water-resistant molded EVA base that allows the backpack to stand upright. Industrial strength hook-and-loop straps on the side of the backpack holds a tripod or other bulky gear. The adjustable shoulder straps feature an innovative strap management system that keeps excess straps out of the way. Breathable, padded air mesh lines the shoulder straps and backpack back for a comfortable fit. The SLR compartment includes a patent pending neoprene hammock suspension system that suspends the camera above the bottom of the case, preventing impact. The compartment lid is lined with scratch-resistant memory foam to help avoid screen damage. The main compartment is fully customizable. Padded, felt covered, contoured dividers attach to flexible walls with hook-and-loop strips allowing you to create a protective, custom fit for extra lenses, flash, or other essential gear. Four exterior accessory pockets provide additional storage for extra batteries, cords, memory cards or other small accessories.
