- Volume: around 30L (full-frame camera + 3 lenses + telephoto + accessories)
- 16" laptop sleeve
- Carry-on compliant
- Well-padded straps & hip belt
- Trampoline mesh is not a must, I won't use it in strenuous hikes, but the back must be breathable
- Side pockets/straps for a tripod & water bottle would be nice
- I don't need quick side access
2/3

The Osprey Farpoint 40 checks some of these boxes, although it seems that the laptop sleeve is a bit awkward. Maybe Deuter has a similar model? The Shimoda Action has the form factor I'm looking for, but as I said I don't want to pay a premium for a dedicated photo backpack that lacks some basic comfort features that true hiking backpacks have. If I'm chasing a unicorn do let me know! 🤣 3/3
