Any suggestions for a backpack that can carry a couple bodies, spare batteries, some accessories and a few lenses including the 200-600 and the 70-200? We use the 200-600 the most so something where we can have that connected to the camera would be preferred.

    Did not see what community this was in and was alarmed since on my device the preview text ended at the word “bodies”.

    I have nothing of value to contribute except I’m glad you’re not a homicidal maniac.

    They’re heavy and I wouldn’t recommend for long travel because of that, but the Manfrotto backpacks are very well built. I have one of the larger ones, and it’s great for carrying heavier lenses. I also picked up the 21L and 31L Wandrd but I’m not in love with those. They’re good, just seems like there’s some things they could do better — like the number of internal zipper pockets needs to be more, the laptop / iPad sleeves need to be less flimsy, the velcro needs to be better and placed better, etc. good luck!

      Thanks, I’ll take a look at the Manfrotto. Is there a specific one you would suggest?

        I bought the MultiLoader M and it’s def designed just for camera stuff. Super high quality. It is a heavy bag tho, compared with the Wandrd’s. I took an international trip with it last year with a small drone, small gimbal and like 4 lenses, one camera, laptop, etc and it was massively heavy all in. I took a similar trip this year and focused on weight, hence the Wandrd’s and took fewer lenses, took an iPad etc to shave weight where I could. Switching away from the Manfrotto was another choice. But it’s def a solid bag for shorter trips or where you’re not full backpacking everywhere.
