Shimoda Explore V2 30 Water Resistant Backpack for DSLR/Compact Cameras, Batteries & Lenses, Modular PU System Sold Separately, Khaki Green (520-155)

Stop your search, this is the absolute best backpack in the world. I take 125+ flights per year and I have finally found a backpack that's good for both business AND adventure travel. I have taken this bag from to the base of mount Everest to the most remote, beautiful island in Papua New Guinea. It's not too big, it has quite possibly the worlds best shoulder strap for both functionality and comfort, and it JUST LOOK AND FEELS GOOD. If you are always searching for the perfect backpack, look no further. This is it.

I used a dedicated larger bag that fit 6-7 Zeiss lenses and a 5d for years. But i wanted to lower the number of lenses and be able to fit a jacket, hat or maybe my drone. So I bought a Fuji GFX100s, 33-64mm and 100-200mm lens to start. These items do fit in the medium core unit but that’s about it as far as gear. If I take the strap out, my Fuji xf 56mm1.2 fits there and I can keep my Fuji xt3 with 18-55mm 2.8 zoom in the top zipped area for easy access if I want to bring two cameras. Eventually I will pick up a gf portrait lens and will either leave one of my zooms home or pick up an additional small core to make it all fit. Complaints would be unique to my situation, they might not mean much to you. I have a bigger mirrorless camera so the side access obviously doesn’t work for me. The filter spot on the side won’t fit the 105mm cpl I use with my lee filter kit, also the kit itself is now tossed in a top zipped area. Kind of don't like needing two separate areas for my lee big stopper, cpl, nd and other filters. However, I just ordered Shimoda Filter Wrap 150 that should solve this issue, but its another separate thing to purchase and to take up bag space. But the pros are great. Great company you love to support. Top quality zippers and materials. Moving the straps to medium is a bonus because you can make it fit how you like. I can stuff my drone or hat in the top if I want to. I like having a spot for my phone and water in the front. The removable waist strap and beautiful color on the inside are extra nice touches. Pretty much an awesome day pack. But I’m thinking of picking up an Shimoda Action 50 for when I travel and need to bring all the lenses, drone, GoPro and clothes. If I just had my xt3 or a small Sony and lenses this would be all I need. But a full frame dslr or medium format user like me might need more I room.

High quality with attention to the details that makes the difference, excellent job Shimoda.

After lots of research a great product and very happy but it needs a video to explain how to find hidden pockets and using it and add straps and additions to it etc. Also zipper tag holes are too small to use a wire combination lock on it. One minor engineering failure. Not clear why there are strap loops everywhere but NOT the front , so you cannot tie a raincoat across the top of bag.
