TenbaFulton v2 14L Backpack – Black

Perfect size to safely transport your gear as carry on with providers like easyJet and Ryanair. Used it to go to Iceland with easyJet recently with no problems

I bought the version 1 of this a few years ago but returned it due to the small front picket and thin shoulder straps. This version 2 is a modest change but does address these two thing so a worthy upgrade. Overall a good discrete comfortable lightweight bag. Only complaint is they could have easily put a useful zipped pocket on the camera section flap but maybe the lower price point of this bag is the reason for this. My work around is to put cables and other small items in a tech accessory case in the top section which works fine. This 14l bag is probably only useful for micro four thirds sized combinations, for full frame it is probably not large enough. The Peak Design travel tripod fits nicely in the tripod pocket of this bag, larger tripods will probably be a struggle, maybe the 16l would be better for larger tripods.

Cercavo uno zaino per uso promiscuo fotografico-generico e secondo me Tenba ha fatto un gran lavoro! Ho vagliato tutti gli altri produttori ma non ho trovato nulla di altrettanto valido.Nello scomparto fotografico riesco ad inserire due corpi (R6 e 5D) con tre obiettivi fissi 50 f/1.2, 35 f/2 e 85 f/1.8 e avanza uno spazietto per delle batterie.Nella parte superiore arrotolabile entra un cambio e una giacca leggera. A necessità ho inserito un 70-200 2.8, 16-35 e due flash, così da avere tutto il kit con me. Tasca laterale elasticizzata per ombrello/treppiede/borraccia da 1L e altra taschina laterale con velcro per piccoli oggetti.Nella zip frontale si può inserire comodamente un macbook pro 14 o forse anche un portatile 15', batterie e altri piccoli accessori.Apprezzo molto che non sembri uno zaino fotografico, si passa abbastanza inosservati. Lo zaino è molto leggero e ben imbottito, comodo anche se alla lunga tende a far sudare la schiena. Ha la cinghia per essere agganciato al trolley e una clip sul petto per distribuire meglio il peso. Lo danno come Weather Resistant ma non so quanto lo sia effettivamente. Il tessuto, una sorta di tela di nylon, decisamente ruvida prende molta polvere.

I've been looking for a smaller backpack to transport my mirrorless kit after having ergonomic problems with the messenger bag I was using. I mainly want the ability to transport the camera plus 2-3 additional lenses, accessories, travel tripod, plus the necessities for short hikes: water bottle, first aid kit, light jacket, snacks, tablet/guidebook, power bank, etc.I had high hopes for the Tenba Fulton v2 14L after reading and watching the few reviews that are out there. I also looked at the Fulton v2 10L but it was way too small.Pros:- Generously-sized camera compartment that easily accommodates my Canon M6 Mk II and lenses. Extra dividers would be needed, but I could pack all five EF-M lenses that I own for it if I wanted to.- Secure, rear-only access to the camera compartment- Thick, wide shoulder straps- Stands up on its own when fully loaded- Low profile styling that's not too boxy and doesn't scream photo backpack- Sternum strap included- Variably-sized top storage compartment that can be made larger or smaller- Useful tablet/13" laptop storage pocket- Luggage trolley strap (really underrated feature that should be on all backpacks and messenger bags)Cons:- No quick side access panel to get to the camera. The backpack must be removed to access the camera compartment. I have a larger hiking camera backpack with a rear camera compartment that has a built-in waist strap which allows you to turn the whole pack around while still attached at the waist to access the camera without taking the pack off. This is not possible with the Fulton.- The tripod pocket is poorly designed. The pocket does not stretch and it is impossible to get two legs of my Sirui travel tripod into the pocket when it is fully folded. Only one leg can be placed in the pocket and even with the stabilizing strap tightened, there is still considerable back and forth rotation of the tripod when walking. This pocket is supposed to double as a water bottle pocket, but nothing larger than a 16 oz bottle is going in there. The other pocket is elastic and could be used for the tripod but the mesh doesn't look like it would withstand the jagged legs of a tripod frequently going in and out. Plus, you would lose the ability to also carry a larger water bottle.- The expandable top compartment is closed by Velcro. If you're in a quiet venue and need to open the top compartment, it's going to be very loud. I also don't like the roll-up look, but appreciate that the size of the compartment can be changed as needed.- No photography accessory specific storage pockets for extra batteries, memory cards, etc. It would have been very easy to put something like this on the inside of the large camera compartment flap.Camera bags are so personal that it's probably the perfect pack for someone else, but for me it fell short. The lack of quick camera access and poorly designed tripod pocket were the two main reasons for sending it back.
