I am looking for a new backpack for every day carry where I always want my camera gear with me (a DSLR, a filter and a couple of extra lenses).

I am looking at the Ramverk Pro Backpack (26L) with their small camera insert.

I like:

  • The simplicity
  • The design
  • The large main compartment
  • Being able to simply add or remove all camera gear by adding or removing the camera insert

I don’t like:

  • No water bottle holder
  • No quick access to camera
  • To few images showcasing the insert in the bag

Do any of you have this setup? Do you like it?

Would you recommend something else?

    I personally use the peak design everyday 30L with a medium camera cube.

    I can 1 bag all of my 4-5 day trips.

    Medium cube, and a medium clothing pack, and one toiletry bag.

    It does get heavy. I’m a smaller person. 69 inches and 150lbs.

    The waist belt helps a lot.

    Took it hiking on Faroe a few weeks ago. Definitely gone through some sketchy hikes but the backpack did fine. I thought it was comfy enough.

    Bad is that your lenses are harder to access through the side pockets. Smaller cameras are fine for the most part.

    I have a Z8 and that was a bit big to get through the side panel.

    I also have the large camera cube and I’m thinking of getting a smedium cube for longer trips. I’ve been trying to one bag longer trips like 7-14 day trips.

    I do cheat by bringing a sling like a 6L sling so I can tuck lenses I’ll use a lot in there for ease of access.

    Sorry for my rambling. Took me 5 bags to get into a setup I’m comfy with.
