MindShiftMS360 Backlight Backpack 26L Grey 520360

There’s plenty of room for your camera gear plus being able to put other stuff in the back for your other paraphernalia that you may want, compared to some other bags with only space for camera gear but looses functionality in every other aspect of the bag

Been struggling to find a camera backpack that ticked all the boxes for my needs and this one comes very close. Not too large, plenty of camera gear storage space, flexible internal partitions, plenty of pockets for other equipment and accessories. Once on it is very comfortable, even when fully loaded with a tripod strapped to it. Not cheap, but well worth the money.

Perfect size bag.well made

Excellent bag fills all my requirements.

I had done a lot of research so I knew what to expect. But it definitely lived up to my expectations.

I won't go into huge amounts of detail as I also want to write a sales ad for this bag.The shoulder straps are not attached straight or symmetrical - one is noticeably at an angle outwards when looking from above.I've only used the bag a few times around the city and already there is fraying on the inside edge of the back panel, from where the zip has caught on the material. In a few other places the stitching and alignment seems to be off. I bought from an authorised seller.I have used quality bags for years, including from real outdoor brands and bike messenger bags which are designed for extremely heavy use. This bag is not. I would not take it out for a long trip for fear of something falling off or coming apart. Really poor quality control.Also, the bag does not feature straps on top of the shoulders to pull the top of the bag flush against your back, so it actually leans away from you, pulling the shoulder straps towards you, which also negates the whole point of having the waist strap.There are also no decent small zippered pockets on this thing, for quick access to small items. If you mount an extra pouch to the belt you won't be able to do up the waist strap around the front of the bag, for those times you need to - while on busy public transport for example.Will be going back to my Domke F2 and maybe adapting an old Gregory Z40 into a real hiking camera bag by just using an insert. All real hiking bags will have external attachment points so you can carry water bottles and tripod etc on them no problem. They will also all have shoulder-top straps for pulling the top of the bag towards your back. Want to use a laptop with them? Put it in a decent sleeve and be done with it.All in all this is a poorly designed and poorly manufactured piece of kit, with a silly high asking price for the build quality and features. Please do your homework and look elsewhere.
