The reason I bought this backpack was to store all of the accessory items I have for my Sony DSC-R1 camera. The Sony R1's accessories are a bit large and somewhat weighty. I have no intention of storing my camera in this backpack as I use a Sony holster style camera case, designed for the R1, on my belt. That way I can access my camera very quickly. When I need any additional items for it, they're now right behind me, well padded and secure. I'm not sure how often I will use the 'Sling Around' feature, but it's an option if I need to try it. When fully loaded, this backpack seems to be much more comfortable than the double strap (WalMart) backpack I had been using. And it's easier to get it on and off.
Regarding the lack of instructions, the easiest way to get this pack on and off is to leave the small strap attached to the main one and unhook the large clip at the bottom of the backpack. Slip your right arm through the hole formed by the two straps, the large and small one, then pull the large strap to your lower left side and clip it to the bottom side of the bag. Adjust both straps until comfortable.
In this backpack I am able to fit the following;
VCL-DEH08R Wide angle lens
VCL-DEH17R Tele lens
VAD-RA Lens adapter
HVL-F32X Flash
HVL-RLA Macro Ring Light
RM-DR1 remote cable
77mm Lens Hood
67mm Polarizer
67mm Graduated ND Filter
77mm Vari-ND filter
67mm Marumi Achromat 5.0 Macro lens
2 Sony NP FM50 batteries
8 AA NIMH batteries
1 Short center column tube for my tripod
1 large lens cleaning cloth that doubles as a grey card
All the items fit securely inside and there is some space left, that can be used for a few more small items. I have found that the backpack will stand upright, on it's own, quite well, sitting evenly on the bottom feet, contrary to some of the other reviews. I think this has to do with where and how the heaviest items are placed. My large lenses are near the bottom and that makes for a low center of gravity. Loaded this way, the backpack requires a fair amount of force to knock it over. You need to make the compartments at the bottom evenly uniform to get the case to stand well, if there is a void near the corners, the bottom will be rounded and the pack will easily roll over. Also, I have found the internal dividers to be quite configurable and they stay in place very well once arranged.
This backpacks' tripod carrying feature didn't work well for me, although it might be okay with my monopod. I tried my Dolica AX620B100 on it and it wasn't stable, a little movement on my part, would dislodge it from the fabric cup, leaving it hanging by the top strap only and banging into my back. The tripod was also unprotected and could be easily scuffed up or damaged. I then tried to use my tripod case, with its sling attached to the upper tripod support strap, as an alternative way to carry my tripod. Either of these arrangements caused the bag to tilt to the right, almost twisting the pack sideways. The best way I found to carry my tripod is to place my tripod case sling through the backpacks' main strap, and let it hang to my lower left side. The bottom of my tripod case rides just above my left knee, the top opening is above waist level, easily at hand, and the extra weight towards the bottom left side, makes the backpack hang more evenly. The now, unused, upper tripod strap leaves me with one more place to hang a small extra carry bag, for some snacks or whatever.
I am very impressed with this backpack as it allows me to carry all that I will need for any photographic situation, macro to telephoto. For $30, you'll be hard pressed to find better. At the price I paid, it can't be beat!
When I ran across the Amazon Sling, I was skeptical because of the low price. And, because of the low price, I wasn't fearful of losing much by making a mistake, so I ordered one.
It arrived last week and now I've configured the dividers to easily fit my camera with attached 12-40mm lens plus three additional lenses in the main compartment. There is still room left for the 7-14mm f2.8 PRO ultra wide angle that I'm waiting for Olympus to release this Fall! In the top section I can fit my two extra batteries, charger, two ND filters, memory cards, LED flashlight, lens cleaning pen. My whole kit now fits in a well padded, very small, easily accessible sling that I don't have to take off to get gear or change lenses. It even carries my Manfrotto tripod lashed to the side.
Not being used to wearing a sling, figuring out how to put it on was the hardest part of getting acquainted with it! I had to study the photos on the Amazon product page to get all the straps going the right way and then practice putting it on a few times to get the sequence down. I couldn't find a YouTube video showing how to wear it.
It looks like this is going to be a great way to contain everything I need. The final test comes on my trip to Sweden in two weeks. So far, no reason not to love it. It appears to be well constructed and padding is more than adequate.
Pro's:
- sling strap is comfortable and adjustable
- the compartments are a great use of small space. Foam and Velcro dividers allow you to create a space for your specific set of gear
- Top pocket for extra's (batteries, chargers, snacks etc)
- **most useful feature (my opinion)**: the major compartment has a wrap around zippered opening. Using the sling strap, you can slide the bag around to your front and the compartment becomes a work space that you can use to switch out lenses, arrange gear, or drop your sunglasses into while shooting photos. It's one of those things I thought was cool until I used it and realized is invaluable.
- Side elastic pocket for water bottle or other small bits of gear
- Just because I like it... the interior is orange, bag is black. It looks cool, and reminds me of the design of higher end camera bags.
Cons:
- Beyond a day hike or quick grab-and-go photo trip, this bag will be too small
- Often found myself wishing it was 3-4 inches taller (along with the space this would afford.
- **Something that would be very useful in future iterations of the bag would be a flat pocket between the bag and my back for an iPad mini/book/notepad
Overall:
I really like this bag. It's compact, light weight and versatile. The very reasonable price tag makes you feel good about the purchase, and after months of use, it has held up well to the elements (side note: I got caught in a long rainstorm on a hike and the bag absorbed a lot of water without the interior becoming wet, and my camera was untouched). I especially love using it as an abbreviated work station while shooting photos. I will use this bag for as long as it holds up.

La prima cosa che ho notato è stata la sua struttura ben realizzata. I materiali utilizzati sembrano robusti e resistenti all'usura, offrendo una protezione adeguata per la fotocamera e gli accessori. Le cerniere scorrono senza intoppi e i punti di fissaggio sembrano essere ben rinforzati.
Tuttavia, quando ho aperto lo zaino, mi sono reso conto che lo spazio interno era più limitato di quanto immaginassi. Non è in grado di contenere più di una fotocamera reflex con un obiettivo montato e uno o due obiettivi aggiuntivi. Se avete l'intenzione di portare con voi molti accessori o attrezzature extra, potreste avere qualche problema a farli stare tutti nel vano principale.
Fortunatamente, lo zaino è dotato di scomparti interni regolabili, che consentono di organizzare gli oggetti in modo efficiente. Ci sono anche tasche laterali e una tasca frontale con cerniera per riporre piccoli accessori come batterie, schede di memoria e filtri. Queste caratteristiche aggiuntive sono molto utili per tenere tutto a portata di mano e ben organizzato.
Un aspetto positivo di questo zaino monospalla è la sua comodità. Le cinghie sono imbottite e regolabili, consentendo di adattare la vestibilità alle proprie preferenze. Inoltre, il pannello posteriore è imbottito per offrire un maggiore comfort durante il trasporto.
In conclusione, se siete alla ricerca di uno zaino monospalla compatto per la vostra fotocamera SLR e un paio di obiettivi, l'Amazon Basics - Zaino monospalla per fotocamere SLR potrebbe fare al caso vostro. Nonostante le dimensioni più piccole rispetto alle aspettative, offre comunque una buona protezione e un'organizzazione efficiente. Tuttavia, se avete bisogno di spazio extra per molti accessori, potrebbe non essere la scelta migliore.
Es justa, mi camara cabe con el lente 24-105 canon L, además creo que le puede caber un 70-200 L y a lo mejor un 50 mm.
En el bolso de arriba lo utilizo para una pila extra, batery banck, mis lentes, un porta memorias y aún le cabe un poco más.
A parte compré un impermeable de 26 L. a 40L. para la mochila, le queda un poco grande pero es perfecta si se lleva un trípode o monopie. El bolsillo donde se esconde un pequeño soporte para el trípode abarca toda la parte inferior de la mochila. Ahí cabe muy buen el impermeable y además le hace protección para la cámara.
What I love most is that I can operate (ingress/outgress) camera without taking the bag off the shoulder.
Highly recommend if your stuff is like mine, cause it cannot fit any more stuff, except a few memory cards, knick knacks, map etc.
I chose this to keep the baggage small.
