AmazonBasics DSLR and Laptop Backpack (Orange)

I use this backpack on a daily basis and so far its holding up really well. The laptop sleeve can easily fit a 15in MacBook Pro and an iPad; the camera section is great and I feel like my gear is protected, and the front pocket is good for holding spare batteries, chargers, and other stuff like that. The only downside is that because of how the backpack is shaped and how the pads/wall things are shaped, there are only a few ways to configure it that Ive found work well. I also wish it was a bit larger, but it fits my DSLR, 3 (soon to be 4) lenses, and my gorilla pod just fine, in addition to everything that can fit in the other pockets. Edit: This thing is still awesome. Over the last year and a half, it’s held up very well, with no rips or fraying, and has continued to meet my needs as I’ve grown as a photographer and videographer. It’s still not quite perfect. It’s still a tad small, the front pocket is small but functional, and there are only so many ways it can be configured. With that said, I’ve still managed to fit: A canon 7D mark ii with the battery grip A canon T5 A 50mm f/1.8 A 24mm f/2.8 A gorilla pod An ND filter A full blown Monfroto tripod (separated into two pieces, but it still fits) Chargers for both battery types I carry Three or four spare batteries (could easily fit more) A spare battery grip insert (to power the 7D off of AAA batteries) Loads of miscellaneous cables A pelican SD card case And then a laptop and and ipad and a water bottle strapped to the side. For 35 bucks, you CANNOT go wrong with this backpack.

Ive had two of these in a row since 2018. Backpack itself is great. But the zipper puller (the part you grip) keeps breaking off. I had two break off on the first one within a couple of years, and now on my second one the pullers broke off again within a year. They need to fix this one issue. The metal should be changed.

Love this bag! This is a great bag for starters or for hobbyist in storing camera and video equipment. This bad holds my T3i, Zoom Audio Devices, all Kinds of cords, batteries, SD cards, led lights, a tripod, business cards, and etc. I love the dividers in how it keeps everything organized and neat. My only thing with the dividers is that they are starting to get a little lose on me. It doesnt have that tight fit like when I first purchased it. Its a very big bulky bag but its okay! What I love about this bag is that the strap on the front that clamps around your waist. Sometimes I carry extra bags or tripods and I just loop them on the cords in the front and clamp it in place and my hands are freed up to carry something else. Its a very strong bag and it gets the job done. I love the orange in the bag and it gives it a cool color. I love all of the zippers and compartments to where you can store on hold just about anything. This bag is a great bag and it hasnt disappointed me. I only gave it 4 stars because of the bulkiness and the dividers which are slipping or loosening. Overall, this is a great bag and I shopped on Amazon for a lot of bags and chose this one. For the price...This is a great buy!

Have now had this item for over 6 months and taken 4 trips with it so I think I can review it with some certainty. No zippers have failed, no stitching has unraveled, despite somewhat over filled it has not failed to fit under the seat on any airplane so far, even including the smaller regional jets. When I first got it I was having real problems with my left shoulder so I was being really careful with it, but in the last few months I have been able to wear it properly and it makes getting through airports with short connections much easier than my shoulder slung bag used previously. I carry a Surface and a leather document portfolio along with books or magazines in the large pouch nearest the straps. A digital SLR along with 70-200mm, 200-500mm, 28-70mm, flash, GPS, power chargers, cables, flashlights, binoculars, etc. etc. all fit. The only thing I noticed, dont close the zippers on that big back pocket and leave them up near the handle, pull both down to one side or the other. The weight of the rest of the pack caused them to unzip and for it to partially flap open. Had I not noticed it I might have lost items. I have not has a repeat since being sure they are to one side or the other. In short a spacious back that does fit under airline seats and seems pretty rugged so far.

This is the second Amazon Backpack that I purchased, I also own the smaller Amazon DSLR Backpack (no laptop) for over year and I am very familiar and please with that bag even though I took it to war a few times. for those wondering about the interior size of this bag, I can fit 2 full frame camera bodies with lenses attached (24-70 and 85mm 1.8) along the center line of the bag, I have a 70-200 2.8 and a 50 1.8 on one side and 2 flashes and a set of 4 radio trigger on the other size (you can easily put a small zoom in place of the radio triggers). The front pouch is also very useful and well padded and that where i stored my 7 set of 4 AAs batteries and 3 Nikon camera batteries and a host of other things. The Laptop pouch is huge and can easily swallow my 15 inch laptop. This is truly a lot of stuff and you probably shouldnt be carrying much more than that unless you have a rolling bag since the weight add up quick. I love the padding on the straps! This bag is much bigger than it appear in photos, at least to me so keep that in mind. Like I said in the above, this is my second Amazon bag and I was extremely please with the first one which was very reliable and been through a lot, I just wanted a bigger bag that can accommodate 2 full frame cameras and a little more room for lenses and equipment and this bag did just that!

This worked perfectly for my first overseas trip. I wanted a carryon that would protect my DSLR which I was never going to let more than 4 feet away. The backpack has a number of removable velcroed pads that allow you to shape the individual packing areas. If I had been taking multiple lenses (which I wasnt) this would have been great. All I needed for special padding was an area for a Nikon D90. The backpack has plenty of room for a change of clothes, a laptop, pockets for personal items (sunglasses, lipstick, wallet, passport, stuff), and also space for the quart bag of small toiletries, and another small bag for prescriptions, cough drops, etc. It holds so much you have to be careful from making it too heavy. The adjustable straps are comfortable and you could also carry it by the handle. It does not have a slip strap for the handle of your wheelie suitcase, but you could easily adapt the existing straps for this. It worked great as a daypack for carrying everything on tours. And it has side straps for carrying a tripod. Definitely my permanent go-to bag for adventuring. Where dd we go? Tromso, Norway above the Arctic Circle and yes, we saw the Northern Lights.

Nice camera bag for the price. The orange interior does make it easy to find small parts but probably not much more than the grey. It doesnt have as many storage pockets as more expensive bags but for $40 its pretty good. Still, would be nice to have more. Carefully inspected the bag upon receipt. No problems with the stitching or the zippers. Looks like it will hold up well unless its just carelessly abused. The shoulder straps are comfortable and surprisingly thicker than I expected. So is the back. The laptop compartment is huge and will accommodate a 17 easily. My 15.6 HP and 10.5 Samsung tablet fit no problem. The included rain cover is a nice addition as the bag will probably not provide much protection in even light to moderate rain. The bag is deep and protrudes outward significantly if that is a concern, but it holds its shape and does a good job of standing upright. The interior padding is good all around and the Velcro pads in the camera compartment attach securely. Would be nice if Amazon included a couple more. What you see in the pics is what you get. Im a little concerned the mesh pocket in the front will hold up. The bottom couldve been sewn stronger and the material almost feels brittle. The only other concern I really have is the rubber handle on top. Just doesnt feel durable. Very soft rubber. Overall, its a good bag if you dont want to spend a lot of money and I would buy it again.

Fits my digital SLR camera, zoom lens, flash, lens hoods, filters, cleaning supplies, mini collapsible tripod, camera remote, camera charger, laptop charger, wireless mouse, spare laptop battery, laptop backup hard drive, all laptop and camera manuals and CDs, and the rain hood in the main compartment. The laptop goes in its compartment. The small outside pockets and separate briefcase-type compartment are empty, so theres still room for other items like cell phone, its charger, pens, earbuds, some papers, passport and wallet, and a few other small items. With all that, it is heavy, but thats expected, especially since my laptop is ancient and heavy. Straps have a large range of adjustment. Flexible partitioning allowed me to pack the camera, zoom lens, and flash near the top, for quicker acces to those more commonly used items when speed is needed. Good amount of padding to protect the gear. Combining laptop and camera makes perfect sense for taking and editing/displaying photos during or immediately after events and while traveling. The combination also saves one carry-on item when flying, which was my initial reason for buying it. Only slight issue is that the side-to side taper toward the top of the bag makes those corners of the laptop tight and hard to close the zipper around. A thinner, more modern laptop would likely alleviate this issue. Fantastic product for the price. Its new, so if I have durability issues, I will update this review.

This is a great product, fits well with my Sony camera and 3 different lenses. Its easy to use and seems adequate for protection. However, I with it give a little extra room for other accessories. The room is a little tight but I totally understand why. I love this bag.

As a photographer for my universitys newspaper, I carry this backpack with my camera gear at least two days a week with school supplies and sometimes my laptop. The main divided camera area is easily reconfigurable, with the option to move or take out as many of the dividers as youd like. I have even been able to fit a 60 telescoping tripod inside the main compartment by re configuring it. I like that the camera is designed to sit at the very bottom because then it is more stable and protected. You can flip the dividers so the SLR can fit at the top, but it doesnt work as well because the compartment is thinner at the top so it is harder to zip up and it isnt as protected as well. The front pouch has several useful pockets and a zippered mesh pouch for accessories, as well as a larger pocket for folders and notebooks. The laptop pouch is easily big enough to fit a 17 laptop, my 15 laptop fits with enough room to leave flash drives plugged in and still zip up. The velcro pouches on the exterior sides of the backpack definitely DO NOT work as cupholders, but work nicely for storing a computer mouse or spare camera batteries. The quality of this backpack is really impressive, I have depended on it for over 6 months now using it multiple times a week, and there are no signs of wear or any problems this far. The zippers always run really smooth, and are good quality. One slight annoyance is that you cant really access the main divided compartment without setting the backpack down because you have to open the entire front of the backpack, so plan ahead and pull your camera out when you can take your time. The exterior tripod straps work nicely and secure just about any size tripod just fine. The ergonomics are very good, I can wear this backpack for long periods of time just fine like most other high quality backpacks. There is a surprising amount of support in this backpack, It stands up by itself and feels very sturdy when handling. I didnt think I would use the waist strap, but when you are carrying 20+ pounds of camera equipment, it can be really nice to relieve some of that pressure from your shoulders. Overall, I highly recommend this backpack to anyone needing to carry more than one or two lenses and a laptop or school supplies. The quality really impressed me and I expect this backpack to last me several more years.
