Today I ordered a custom fitted backpack for photography.
The pack is intended specifically for hiking. I want to be able to carry a full pack of all the camera gear I might want for a full day of hiking and photography.
The pack I am getting has a custom fitted internal frame that keeps the pack close to the body. It also has a suspension system that transfers substantially all weight to the hips and off the back. An already-extended tripod can be secured to the back of the pack for easy deployment.
The guy I am working with is a one-man custom pack designer and builder.
The pack itself is not going to have built in compartments for dividing and protecting equipment. The plan is to use standard internal premade storage packs to divide equipment.
I am looking for internal storage packs that can handle a z 800mm pf and z 600mm pf and a few other short lenses.
Would appreciate feedback and experience with custom photo packs, including suggestions for design.
