Which Camera Backpack?

I have many, many, many miles on one in a Downhill Mountain bike scenario as well as Skiing, traveling etc. I was a professional action sports photographer. There are a number of upsides.

The camera block fits internally but is removable, making it easy to pull the block out and just use the backpack, or if you're in town, carrying the block by hand as a stand-alone bag.

The design is excellent for athletic movement. External pockets compression straps + Tie Downs.

Great waist strap as well as chest. Good ventilation on the back panel.

The BIGGEST and MOST WORTHY item to mention...The bag opens from the back (Ie where your back sits in the pack). This is AMAZING for a few reasons. First, if you are in mud or dirt and it gets slung up onto the pack from the rear wheel of the moto or bicycle, it stays away from where you are handling your camera gear and doesn't drop into the camera block and contaminate your gear. THIS IS A BIG DEAL.

Second, when you put the bag down to access the gear, it stays on the already dirty side of the pack. It sucks when you are in the dirt and you have to put the strap side down into the muck to get to your gear, only to put the pack back on and cover your back with dirt and mud..

Third, because the zippers for entry into the camera gear are between your back and the pack, water tends to stay out better as well.
