{"id":3380,"count":8,"description":"<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The best camera backpacks test for 2018 represent brands with roots in carrying photography gear, commuting related products, and outdoor equipment. We chose a widespread in design; some of the camera backpacks best served urban environments while others belonged in the wilderness. The different design philosophies prioritized gear protection, storage of camera gear, storage of other equipment, organization, and styling. Packs varied in camera gear storage and protection methods and the ability to carry items required to digitally edit images, like notebook computers, tablets, and drives. Some packs were extremely weatherproof while others were not concerned with usage in extreme conditions. <\/span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our tester used the packs for both professional assignments and personal use. Most testing occurred during full days in the field while working various editorial duties in both the outdoor and motorsports industries, as well as use during photography school projects. Testing of the five packs took over a year and encompassed travel across the United States and into both Baja and mainland Mexico. The packs endured everything from winter alpine conditions to warm beaches in all four seasons. <\/span>\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_31860\" align=\"aligncenter\" width=\"900\"]<img class=\"wp-image-31860 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/gearinstitute.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Photo-Backpacks-1-900x675.jpg\" alt=\"camera backpacks\" width=\"900\" height=\"675\" \/> The 2018 Best Photo Backpack contenders (from top left to bottom right): Peak Design Everyday Backpack 30L, MindShift Gear Rotation180 Horizon 34L, Mountainsmith Tanuck 40L, Thule Covert DSLR Rolltop Backpack, Lowepro Whistler BP350 AW.[\/caption]","link":"https:\/\/gearinstitute.com\/hiking\/hiking-camping-backpacks\/camera-backpacks\/","name":"Camera Backpacks","slug":"camera-backpacks","taxonomy":"category","parent":3176,"meta":[],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>The Best Camera Backpacks | Reviews and Buying Advice | Gear Institute<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Our experts extensively field-tested the best Camera Backpacks of the year and rated the best based on transparent, objective criteria.
