4.0 out of 5 stars Finally found the right pack!, December 3, 2009

Wow! Finally, after much searching, I've found the right pack. I've tried quite a few so far. Over time, my goal became to find a camera backpack WITH hydration. The Clik Elite Medium Nature is IT. This pack has many adjustments on it to find your comfort zone. Almost everything is in the right place, and works as it should. The zippers are very, very solid. The camera compartment holds my 70-200 2.8 Sigma, my 24-70 2.8 Sigma on my Nikon D300s camera, and my Sigma 10-20 wide angle lens. It's a tight fit, but a perfect one. The pocket for the hydration pack (NOT included--picked up a camelback reservoir at REI for a reasonable price) will fit up to a 70oz reservoir, nice and tight, with room to spare for other gear/camera accessories, food, more water, clothes, etc.

Cons? It could be easier to get the camera out. It's a pretty tight fit, and though I've moved things around multiple times, the way that works best is still difficult. Also, this bag is not really all that light. So once you get your camera gear in there, a monopod on the side (it is also missing a dedicated tripod strap/attachment), reservoir and whatever other stuff you need/want, look out. For backpacking, it's fine. For biking (which is why I bought it), it's a little heavy. But hey, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger, right? Heh... at least that's what I tell myself as I'm lugging my gear up the hill in this bag.

But those minor faults aside, this is a great bag that you can take just about anywhere.

4.0 out of 5 stars This is the perfect photographer / hiker bag, November 4, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I have used this bag at least a half dozen times now. It is wonderful.

My observations...

Camera area: Easily fits a bunch of gear. I carry a Canon 7D with a 28-135mm lens attached, a 75-300mm lens, an external flash with diffuser and I still have room for another lens or two. I own a Sony A100 also and have plenty of room to add that camera with a lens or two in addition to the Canon if I choose. Of course back packing / biking / skiing etc. ensures I keep my weight limit as low as possible but I could pack this additional camera with ease.

The rest of the bag:

-It comes with a water bladder (70 ounces). Yes, a little bigger would be better but this is the only pack I have found that carries any water at all along with my camera gear.

-Top section is not huge but it is sufficient. On a hike up a mountain I was able to pack a large sweatshirt, sandwiches x2, a bag of trail mix, gloves, hat and some other odds and ends. My light weight, cheapo, Wal-Mart tripod easily fit on the right outside of the pack (my good tripod would have been way to heavy). I also had a knife, military compass and 4 maps. There was also room in the front flap for an extra memory card and remote. I could have fit a little more in this bag had I chose to.

Comfort: I spent 20+ years in the Army. Many of those years were spent carrying rucksacks. This bag rivals the best the Army could provide. Of course this bag carries a lot less but, I found it to be extremely comfortable. The bag is heavy when compared to the lightweight packs on the market today but none of those will protect your camera gear nor will they organize it like this bag does. In addition, I doubt those lightweight bags have the build quality this bag possesses.

-The ladder system is excellent for comfort control. I am 6'1 and weigh 205. I tried several adjustment until I found the one that worked well for me.

-The shoulder straps are pretty good. A bit wider might be better but they are padded very well and do not tire my shoulders out.

Speaking of build quality: I can't say enough. This is a rough, tough bag that should last for many years to come.

***I took one star off Quality of Build because the chest strap stitching came undone. The strap was fine but the stitching broke. I noticed the poor stitching on this one spot when I first received the bag. Sure enough the strap disconnected. Rather than return the bag i will simply sew it myself. I inspected the rest of the bag and this seems to be the only spot where the quality was less than great. Though I am not happy about that, the rest of the bag appears rock solid.

-It comes with a rain cover that hides away underneath and is easy to pull out if heavy rain starts.

-I also bought the chest pack with it. The back and chest packs work awesome together.

Bottom line...

-This bag is $20ish more expensive than it's rivals but I found it well worth the cost. It is a great product.

If you want a bag that carries your photo gear, gives you room for other gear and let's you carry some water, buy this pack.

Perfect bag for the active outdoors person.

5.0 out of 5 stars Just what I was looking for., October 10, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I just got back from a 30 day tour of the western states and this pack proved invaluable. First, it carried all my gear in a safe and organized manner. It toted two complete DSLRS, a 200mm telephoto, lens extension barrel, a 50mm lens, filter pack, extra data cards, lens cleaning equipment, and a tripod. This was a car camping trip and knowing where all my gear was made things much easier. Second, its non-camera storage space was great for carrying snacks, compass, knife, and other emergency gear, plus the pocket for my Platypus 70oz water bladder. This came in real handy hiking around the Grand Canyon and the Petrified Forest where temps were in the mid to high 90z. Quite frankly this pack can be loaded quite heavy. I carried all my gear as I never wanted to be far away from my car and need a lens or spare body. The pack carried it all and with water probably weighed thirty pounds!

The pack is very comfortable and rides just right thanks to the great adjustment system. I've "humped a ruck" quite a bit in the Army and those packs don't compare to this one. I've read some reviews that say the shoulder straps are a bit on the narrow side. While I would agree that it would have felt nicer if the straps were 1/4 to 3/8 inches wider, I was still happy with how the felt.

Workmanship and materials are excellent. I was never able to test the waterproof qualities or the rain cover as it never did rain when I used the pack. I had shopped on line for three weeks before purchasing this pack. There were some that carried more camera gear, but only camera gear. There were a lot of packs for much less money, but they didn't have the features of this pack. I finally figured that if I was going to tote $2000 worth of photo gear around I ought to have something that would protect it and carry well.

It is well worth the money.
