2 Compartment Camera Backpack

[Zipper] I researched dozens of camera bags/watched YouTube Product reviews for all of them, and typically I'll go for the more expensive/higher-end product...HOWEVER, I kept coming back to the USA GEAR S17 bag primarily because of its design layout and style, and it just happened to be the most affordable one out of all of them! Once I received the bag, I was able to load my Panasonic GH5, 3 lenses, DJI Mavic Air & Controller, Zoom F1 & Shotgun Mic in just the main divided compartment. In the top/rectangular shaped compartment, I was able to neatly store all of my miscellaneous batteries, and all charger docks/cords for the gear listed above, with some room to spare. Additionally, my 15 inch Macbook Pro slides nicely in the dedicated laptop compartment. Often, when you have a camera bag loaded, there's a certain rigidity that occurs, causing the backpack to feel uncomfortablely firm, as if you're wearing a box on your back... Fortunately, this is not the case with this backpack, it is very comfortable to wear and feels very natural. I primarily shoot real estate property videos, and I love knowing that 90% of my gear is neatly condensed into a sleek backpack, and being able to just walk in and grab my bag and go is a refreshing feeling! USA Gear nailed it with the S17 design!

[Zipper] I have been wanting a small, comfortable camera backpack for hiking and bike riding. The compartment is big enough to hold a DSLR/Mirrorless camera, med zoom, and another small lens or two. There is a larger compartment on top for personal item like glasses, snacks, wallet, sunscreen, etc. I rarely take so little equipment when traveling, but if I ever do it will be great to have the laptop compartment. The bag is sturdy, well made, and stylish. The only way it could be improved IMO is if the camera compartment was a bit bigger and the personal compartment a little smaller. (And maybe a restraining strap for waist or chest.) But still, FIVE stars for this great bag.

[Zipper] I searched extensively for a backpack camera bag with a trolley sleeve and that had a sizeable compartment for non-photography gadgets that is easily accessible and found this one. I was pleasantly surprised by the build quality, thoughtful design, and inclusion of a trolley sleeve (most backpacks lack them). It holds its shape, is attractive, and comes with enough adjustable padded inserts for several small lenses and two milc bodies. Price is very competive too, given the quality of the product. I’m pleased and even own Ona and Billingham bags, so my expectations are pretty high.

[Yes] Very well designed backpack, has multiple compartments to hold the camera accessories. The main compartment can be customized to whatever the user wants to hold the camera and the lenses. The external material is tough and can handle rough surfaces. The rain cover looks good but I have not used it yet. On the two sides and the center belt it has straps that one can attach other smaller cases and water bottle holder.

[Yes] I’ve gone through all sorts I’ll camera bags, from basic backpack style to sling backs and totes. This one has it all: easy access front compartment, laptop sleeve, and even what I call a bonus compartment that easily accommodates my bag lunch. All of this and it’s got a low profile so it’s not sticking out like a rucksack. I was lucky enough to get it on sale for $50 off so I paid for a LowePro bag at an off-brand price. And it looks great!

[Yes] It is the Backpack I was looking for. Ok the upper compartment could be a little bigger for an ipad, but the backpack is very versatile. You can load the camera from top or bottom compartment or for easy acces from the side. I haven't quite figured out how to pack it optimal for the divieders give only limited possibilities. That would one other thing that could be improved. But all in all it is great. And I feel save in the city since you can pack it so not anyone can have easy access. I was looking for a nice little daypack wich ataches the tripod. nd that is exactly what it is.

[Yes] It is so nice not to have to have to take my backpack completely off to take things out of it. There is also a handy compartment for my lens caps.

[Handheld Only] Not your typical photo backpack... But that's why I love it. As always, with ONA, the quality is amazing. This pack is perfect for what it was designed to do. Carry a sensible amount of gear, low key, fashionable, functional, durable, stylish. Street shooting or just running around town or a small shoot, it's great. I'm using an R6 with some L glass and it can hold it fine... in the top compartment I have the R6 with an 85mm mounted and there is room for another lens and some batteries... you can put more stuff un the lower compartment too...

[Tan/Beige] I just bought this black tote bag yesterday from a peak design authorize dealer in Singapore.. Didn't carry much of my stuff with me.. just my daily stuff in my peak design tech pouch equip with peak design slide to the shop. Design and materials are cool,simple and great, feels good to carry it around. After purchasing it.. stop at cafe to set up the dividers to get the interior compartments up. Was caught in the rain on my way to the taxi stand.. things in my bag remains dry. Had seen reviews on YouTube about the back ventilation issue but no problem with me.. I carry around with one back strap as it is suffiocient to hold close to my body well , another strap I just stuff it inside the hidden compartment (Plenty of ventilation).Happy with my purchase and experience with this tote backpack. I carry my phone and gaming console gears, blue tooth earphones in the tech pouch which goes into this tote backpack along with a set of jeans and shirt, safety glasses my stack of A4 size work files and notes in the laptop compartment. Fitted in just nice for minimum daily commuter carry. Maybe few areas to improve: - The zip top compartment at the top for quick access gets tight if got loaded up at the internal... Can have bigger and own dimension for this quick access compartment. - Hope to see this tote backpack 2nd generation next time with slightly bigger capacity like 25 or 30 litres for different occasions and situation to hold more gears?
