Digital camera reviews of National Geographic NG 1150 Earth Explorer Large Backpack
Digital camera Review: Wonderful Bag for day hikes and other short excursions
Summary: 5 Stars
I got this bag because my main bag, the Think Tank Airport Addicted II is too heavy when fully loaded to use for most day trips. I love the Think Tank, but just needed something to carry less gear and allow for a rain coat or lunch or etc. The NG Large Backpack (5737 or 1150 which ever you call it) is a great bag for that. It will hold 2-3 bodies and 3-4 lenses, depending on the size. Right now I have a Canon Mark 3, Canon 30D w/ grip, Canon EOS 3, canon 70-200 F4 IS L series, 17-40 F4 L, 24-105 F4 L, 100-400 L series, and 35mm F1.4L in the main gear area, as well as all my little goodies, like filter holder, business cards, laptop extra battery and power cable, several extra batteries for each camera, 2 cans of Bear Pepper spray, and other assorted goodies in the bag, and still have more empty pockets left as well as the top for my other gear/food. I guess most people thought this would be built as a tank or more like a hard case, and did not look at the unit as a Backpack/day pack which is what it was designed for and works great as, even for day trips to the glacier or bear watching. I know several others that after seeing my bag, have gone out and got one and they love it just as much. If you want a great day short trip pack, this is it. If you want a solid and rigid bag to fit all your gear in and don't plan to really use it as a back pack, then get yourself a Think Tank product, like the Airport Addicted. Its perfect for that!
