this is my new favorite camera bag it's amazing for drone pilots filmmakers photographers let me
explain why in today's video so let's jump right into it now first off there's a lot of competition
out there most recently on youtube you know it's a peter mckinnon backpack but if you're looking
at that backpack or a few other backpacks let me save you the time and just tell you that this is
much better and i'm explaining why in today's video so i'm going to give you eight categories
of why this is my favorite backpack and the first category was the price okay for 222 dollars super
affordable for what you get and keep in mind that lowepro started out as a mountaineering backpack
so the guy who started it was into mountaineering and climbing and he wanted backpacks that were
really good for filmmakers photographers and obviously drone pilots now so it has years and
years of experience where these other companies don't quite have all that experience and after
the peter mckinnon backpack came out lowepro made this bag which is improvement on an already good
uh pro tactic 452. they kept the price amazing and they added all these new features which i'm
about to explain so price is number one it's a great price number two is the design and ease
of use and i'm using a lot of my gear to film right now so i don't have all my gear in here
but if we open this up you can see that inside as i mentioned earlier it has the depth i can put my
camera lenses and things like that i mean this is a 50 millimeter 1.2 huge lens if i put this
down in here see it'll go all the way down in and there'll be plenty of space on top whereas
other backpacks it'll be like sticking up so this you can go all the way in i just put it over here
and then it has all these little accessories which i'll get to in a second here's my controller for
my drone and i keep my recorder here my drone my camera goes here i got all my cables cords
cleaning gear business cards and then over here if i open this up i could just pull out my 16 inch
macbook pro and i know it says 15 but this is 16 inch and it fits in addition this other little
space right here i have a brand new ipad so i got the ipad and i got the macbook pro and it's really
well padded see has all that layers of padding right there and kind of it velcros shut you don't
even notice it there another thing is all this is customizable so you can move all this around this
is all velcro on these zippers there's this little ring right here so being able to just grab that
and then zip it makes it a lot easier and these zippers are super durable and they open really
fast your back is never going to get dirty because you just place it down like this and it opens from
the back another thing is if i open it on this side you can just stand up open it and then i
can get my drone if i open it on the other side i can get my camera lens by the way i just put the
ziploc bags there in case it rains that's just a thing even though it does have a rain protection
but i'll get into that in just a second and i have these little pouches right here for cleaning stuff
on top i could just access my camera and i put my memory cards and stuff in there also this is
really hard number three is space and depth so there's plenty of space for all your lenses
drones uh filmmaking equipment lighting audio gear which a lot of other bags they're not deep enough
they may be long width wise but not height so the next thing is comfort you gotta have comfortable
bag and this thing is great these straps they improve the bottom they're padded i wouldn't
say that they're the absolute best in the market but they're still very very comfortable and they
have these little rings that you can add a little strap to they have these two straps i could put it
around my chest and then i could put it here if i go walking down the road or if i go for a hike
bringing this gear is never a problem because it's always comfortable with this belt you make it nice
and snug i could put little things in here if i want to it's got this little zipper compartment
and also for comf being comfortable you could take this waistband out and just wear it by
itself or just remove it if you feel like it's too bulky and that leads me to number five is
portability and i researched it and this bag fits on practically every airline i saw that i use like
american jet blue southwest et cetera et cetera et cetera my other bag that i have it's a rolling bag
for my photography gear you watch a video about that up there it's borderline okay
so i like the fact that it still has plenty of room for all my gear but also when i go to the
airport they're not going to say oh you can't bring that on you have to check that bag and
it's super durable and that's the next topic which is durability it is very durable you can like hit
it right here it's like a hard top i like that because i put my camera right here so i don't want
to get that damaged and even on the sides where i keep my drone it's pretty darn durable it's not a
pelican case but it's for a backpack it's very durable but still comfortable which is you know
it's kind of the best of both worlds it also has this like air cooling active zone uh system so if
you sweat it's not gonna get your back really wet and stay there that's also annoying this
is also pretty durable too it's like an extra layer of padding and durability these zippers
are also really durable that was another thing the next thing i really like about this backpack
is the fact that it's got the rain protection in the back so i could just open this up and i just
pull out this little thing right here so this is great because this will go around the entire
backpack so you have to worry about carrying an extra piece of rain protection and it's also an
added layer of cushion for the bottom all right so the last category is accessories i have a few
that i use that i really like comes with this one i believe i think it came with this one because i
order a few more but this is for your tripod and all these little straps you can strap things in
it's about like a hundred different little points on the backpack so you could put these accessories
anywhere you want i also have this camera case i got this is the lens exchange 100 aw links to all
these accessories are down below as you can see me hiking i use this little pouch right here just
for my water bottle but you could also use this for lenses and things like that you put even a
little drone in here as well same thing with this guy nice thing about this guy too it opens up and
you could put two different lenses in there and the nice thing as i said before you could remove
that strap and just wear this by itself however you want to do it you want one you need to go
with just the bag you go with just the belt you go with the bag and the belt and then you can put all
these different accessories for all your gears i hate to use the term one size fits all but that's
really what it does it kind of has all these different customizable features that lowepro
really has perfected over the years this video is not sponsored by lowepro but i've been using them
