AmazonBasics DSLR and Laptop Backpack (Orange)

Great gadget bag. Lots of well designed space. I was looking to upgrade from a smaller gadget bag due to the accumulation of gear. I could no longer carry all my gear in one bag. Thats not gonna be a problem with this bag. Theres plenty of room for my Nikon (Its not a camera. Its a Nikon. ;-), several lenses, 2 flash units, macro sleeves, filters, etc, etc, with plenty of padding to protect my precious glass. The laptop compartment certainly wasnt a priority for me, but now that I have it in hand, I think the added bonus of having the laptop compartment is something Ill be thankful for many times. If for nothing else, Ill be able to transfer photos to my laptop and view them at large scale while still in the field. If it saves me from missing a single shot, it will have proven its worth. I also love the backpack gadget bag concept. Ive always been a freak about having to have ALL my gear with me at all times, and I do a lot of shooting at National Parks. Now I can literally have ALL of my gear with me, as opposed to grabbing the Nikon and a couple of lenses, leaving the rest in my truck, trudging 3/4 of a mile through snow and mud, only to realize that my 35mm sure would be great to have for this shot, then trudging back to my truck to fetch it. Yeah, I know. Zooms. I have PLENTY of zooms, but my fixed lenses are all much faster than my zooms.

Ive been using this bag to hold all of my camera gear for about three years. This bag has been in the mud, snow, rain, wind and sand, and still looks great and functions like it did on day one. Comparing this bag to other camera bags this one is cheap on price, but not cheap on quality. The bag is big enough to allow for the flexibility of whatever I need to carry, yet small enough to take on a plane or carry around. I am able to fit an assortment of lenses and a body with/without a lens attached. I LOVE that I can keep any lens on the camera when I stow it in the bag, including my 70-200 (with plenty of room for a larger lens). This saves me a lot of hassle. I can take out the camera and be ready to go; no need to put on a lens. The front pocket has a nice assortment of pockets and the mesh pocket at the top is very usable and convenient. I keep the included rain cover at the bottom of this pocket. The rear compartment barely fits a 17 laptop (but it fits), so anything smaller will fit no problem. I have two main issues, both of which relate to the main compartment velcro separators. Because the bag is taller on the bottom than the top, you cannot move the separators ANYWHERE you want (you have plenty of flexibility, but not as much as you might think). I wanted to have the camera body at the top (pointing downward) so I could grab the camera without opening the bag completely, but due to the sloping separators, I could not achieve this. At the top, the depth is about 3 inches, and at the bottom, the depth is just over 5 inches. Moreover, when my bag does not have my camera in it, my heavy lenses can break the velcro and everything settles at the bottom (see photo). The other consideration is that you need to open the bag completely to get out your camera. Some bags allow you to get it out without opening the entire compartment (but theyre way more expensive). It isnt a deal breaker, because when I am ready to shoot, I have my camera already out of the bag. Overall, this is a really great bag. You really cannot go wrong with this. Two of my close friends have seen me use this bag and went out and bought it themselves because they liked it so much. It really is a no-brainer buy of a camera bag.

Not quite perfect, because nothing ever is, but pretty close. Slightly larger than I expected but this bag holds both my SLR and DLSR, along with a nice array of lenses for both cameras, and my laptop. I think its the accessory storage pouch on the front that makes me want for a little more, as the number of pockets, while seemingly plenty, still fall a bit short; Im an Architect, so I carry a lot of odds-and-ends with me when Im traveling. I cant bring my usual assortment with me because the storage area cant expand out very far. Also, I had a near fatal error when I picked up the bag with the laptop pouch zippers slightly open at the top; they quickly split open, to each side, due to the weight of the camera equipment and nearly dumped my laptop on the pavement. Definitely need to make sure both zippers are closed together on one side or the other to avoid a potentially expensive accident. My final concern is whether this bag will fit under the seat in front of me on the airplane; itll fit in the overhead bin just fine, but I like to keep my camera with me, rather than risking it to others when theres no room in the bin over my seat. It would also be nice if there was some kind of containment system for all of the extra shoulder, waist, and chest straps when not needed but this is a small issue easily fixed with a few Velcro cable management bands. I am especially happy about the orange interior, though, as it makes identifying the contents quickly and easily, without a lot of digging around. This is a great buy; it holds a LOT of equipment and makes managing storage easy with adjustable dividers in the camera compartment. Just be careful how much you load into it; the bag can become quiet heavy in a hurry. Ive already recommended this bag to a buddy looking for a bag a little larger than what he already has. This is a very good solution!

Ive just received my backpack, and loaded it up with a 17 laptop, two DSLR bodies, and several lenses, including a 400 zoom, plus a load of accessories. Given the amount of kit, its heavy, but everything fits very well. I ordered this both for the ability to carry a 17 laptop plus cameras, and because I thought that the additional chest and waist straps would help with spreading the weight. However, the fully-packed pack is top-heavy, and the additional straps are way too long and positioned awkwardly. Im a 5 5-ish woman, and with the lower strap around my waist, the pack and shoulder straps do not rest on my shoulders at all, but pull me over backwards. Once I realised that the lower strap is NOT a waist strap, but goes (much) lower, then the shoulder straps fitted properly. The top strap, which fastens across the chest, is uncomfortable, and cannot be shortened enough. Im not sure that this will be comfortable for me for any long-distance walks, but for keeping all kit together for travel, it should work fine. I do think that the strap placement was designed for someone taller and probably not for a woman!!!! (Designers: there are women photographers too!!!! And we have curves!!!! And are not six feet tall!!!)

So if youre looking at a bag in this price range, youre not putting a $7000 camera in it, right? So lets nuts and bolts this. Definitely plenty of room in here for all the extras that someone who is a casual photographer might have. I got this pack in a bundle with a Canon T5, and it fits great with two lenses and plenty more. Ive pushed and pulled on it, and the quality of the one I got seems great. Love the flexibility of the dividers on the inside. If its not evident from the picture, you can configure it to have separate compartments for pretty much any fragile bits you might be taking with you. Also, and this is VERY important for someone like me, the orange looks good. My camera is not a source of income, its a hobby, a fun toy basically, and I want accesories that look good. This fits the bill, making me look and feel more professional than I am, without feeling like Im being too full of myself. Im not so in love with orange and black that Im going to run out and buy an Oklahoma State jersey, but its definitely better than boring black and grey. Highly recommend.

I did some research on others that have used this as an inexpensive way to carry the DJI Phantoms and decided to give it a try for our summer vacation. Was able to get the DJI to fit with some very easy configuration of the inside velcro dividers. Zipping it up was a little tight, but hopefully it will stretch out a over time. I put all the charging cables in the outer zipper pocket and the controller fit in the main storage area. Only small want would be that it had a little more padding, but that is minor. No issues with it during car travel. Reviews like these help me to make purchasing decisions. My views in this review are based only on the product.

Ive had two of these in a row since 2018. Backpack itself is great. But the zipper puller (the part you grip) keeps breaking off. I had two break off on the first one within a couple of years, and now on my second one the pullers broke off again within a year. They need to fix this one issue. The metal should be changed.

I bought this for my first ever trip going really anywhere, so this firs time was to Kauai! This bag was PERFECT! I LOVE the hiking type waist strap as one spontaneous hike we had to do and didnt know until we went looking for Queens Bath and we had barely any sunlight left and had to beat it going down, shooting quick, right back up! I carried this bag EVERYWHERE while there and it fit perfectly under the seat on the airplane too. I dont have a mass amount of lenses so I could also fit a few other things in the pockets. It is perfect to look like a normal backpack and not get stolen, although it was ATTACHED to me and my guy either way. I also took my laptop since homework online, and it was perfect for that too. Sturdy. Zippers going both ways made it easier at times when quickly searching a few times to pull something small out if under the seat or however. Great quality of fabric, straps so easy to adjust and not too easy that they slide when I dont want them to resize. I also didnt take my tripod so I just tied my water bottle onto the side strap area where the tripod would go. MyGyvering works! I would absolutely buy this again once mine forever later wore out or as a gift for someone else. Perfect!

Great camera bag at a great price. Two long and 5 short Velcro removable partitions plus two hold down Velcro straps to hold camera items safe and secure. Two outside Velcro-secured pouches. Two large zippered flat storage areas: The area located close to your back (shoulder strap(s) side) good for a laptop...probably 17 inch display size. The other large flat storage area, furthest from your back, has lots of pouches of varying sizes including a mesh-type pouch. A clip I believe for retaining a set of keys is located here. Lots of adjustments for the shoulder straps including waist straps. A couple of Velcro fastening straps on the outside of the bag will hold a light-weight tripod secure. The camera bag is relatively large and looks durable. The bag has not been used yet. Ive set the bag up for a DMC-G6 with 14-140mm lens attached, an HF-R600 with lens hood, two Zoom H1 recorders with shock-mounts attached (one with a ball-joint), bar with two 1/4-20 bolts (for mounting H1 plus HF-R600 side-by-side). A 72 inch tripod on the side of the bag. Hand hold or use the shoulder bag with a Magnus VT-350 tripod. Could even bring a 7 inch Viltrox monitor but with the battery removed (for HF-R600). Hope to use the camera bag soon. Also, a rain hood is included to make a more water resistant enclosure.

This a great and unique camera bag. The orange interior makes it easy to see black camera components so they dont get misplaced. The pack has padding on the back side that shields your backbone from abrasion. This feature makes it very comfortable to carry heavy gear. I have a Nikon D7100 with a 200-500mm Tamron lens mounted that fits very well inside due to the reconfigurable partitions. I found that the zipper handles are top quality and all metal so the other comments about their weakness seem either unfounded or now corrected by Amazon. The only issue that I did have was that I lost one of the two removable velcro fitted straps in a parking lot as I took out my camera. I didnt notice until the next stop that it was missing. We returned to the parking lot and found it. It also has fallen out since then in the car as I took out the camera. I may tack one end down permanently so they cant come off. It is no big deal and it is due to the moderately poor adhesion of the velcro to the orange felt like material in the interior. Perhaps a more aggressive version of the hook side of the velcro would be an improvement. I also got caught out in the rain on a wildlife photoshoot and the supplied rain cover worked spectacularly. I was soaked but the camera gear was dry and safe.
