VanguardALTA Fly 62T DSLR Camera Bag, 2 Wheel Trolley, Drone Storage Option

I am reviewing the Vanguard 62T. This is a spacious bag. It will not, however fit in airline cabins. Also, I am not affiliated with Vanguard in any way. I write reviews for buyers, not sellers.The Vanguard 62T is very well built. The fabric is heavy duty, but feels much smoother than the sandpaper feel of Cordura years ago. The zippers run smoothly. Better than any bag I've owned. The wheels are good quality, turn freely and are easily replaceable. The bag is fully padded, even the closure section has padding. I don't use a device when shooting away from my studio, but there is room for a laptop and tablet. The handles are very well placed and are secure. I especially like that there is a handle strap on the bottom for use when picking the entire bag up. Here is something that I have always found lacking in my other bags. Every cinch point for attaching a tripod, monopod or whatever you may want to attach to your bag comes with a tie-down strap. The pocket for tripod feet fit my Bogen 3021 BPRO (055) and there is a side pocket that will hold a shoot through umbrella, which I often use for outdoor shoots. The soft cases for my 24" softboxes which also get outdoor use have handles that fit over the handle of the 62T. The 62T shines with design forethought and execution.The inside of the bag came with the camera dividers installed. This made it easy to fit my gear. I simply put the gear in the bag, moved a divider to snug up what I put in there and done. A set of drone dividers is included with the bag. The padding is thick, plush and protective. There is also a security net that zips between your gear and the closure to prevent an accidental equipment spill and two security straps with clips to prevent the cover from opening fully.The 62T is a great bag, but for my use it isn't perfect. I shoot with a full frame DSLR with grip. The grip causes the camera to sit higher in the case and the hot shoe rubs against the net. If I don't put something between the net and hotshoe, the net won't last very long in my use. Also, it would have been good to have a number of small pockets for lens cloths, memory cards, and spare batteries, etc. sewn into the inside of the cover. The two memory card pockets are only large enough for a couple of cardsI'm currently using the bag with the net and security straps. Although I did once have an equipment spill while using my last bag, I think in time I'm going to get tired of using the net all of the time and the security straps are painful to use constantly. This isn't a big deal. The net can be unzipped and folded into the very bottom of the inside of the case and the straps can just be ignored. I'm sure there will be times when I want them, but for most use, maybe not. We'll see.So, I'm really pleased with the bag. I can get my camera, wide angle, 70-200, and 100-400mm lenses in there along with my speedlight, flash trigger, 4 sets of speedlight batteries, Rocket blower, a stack of lens filters, and the lens hoods for all of my lenses. Not perfect, but because of the excellent build quality and the thoughtful design, I give this 5 stars.

This is a great case, it holds my Nikon D810, lenses, chargers, my HP Pavilion 15" laptop, and space for more. The wheels move great (2), and the extending handle as well as handles on the sides make it easy to handle. That's the good part. The bad is, it is too large for carry-on. So, you will need to check it in, and make sure all Lithium batteries are removed and placed in your carry-on. Or just buy a smaller Alta Fly case

After trying a couple of backpacks, I’m finally bought this Alta fly to fit all my dslr gear which I was struggling to carry as single bag earlier. So super convinced with the space and loading capacity of this beautiful beast.;). But the downside of this bag is it’s bulkiness, with all my gear filled in bag turns about 35lb and no wheels attached so i need to be both mentally and physically prepared for carrying on my shoulders to travel with it.

This is probably the best bag I have ever used. It is so spacious and balanced. The wheels are so smooth I frigin love it. It even comes with a numbered padlock. My back is very greatful for it. Vanguard is the best.I can't take it in the plane though because it's massive. Have to check it in.Don't stuff the side pockets with sharp stuff it can tear the pocket because its some stretchy material.

I Purchased this to travel with on an airplane. The description stated it would be a carry on. When i received it it was perfect for all of my equipment but just looked too big for a carry on. So I double checked with the airline. So glad I did! Unfortunately I had to return the item and go with something smaller.
