Buying a camera backpack

Choosing a backpack for cameras and lenses

With a camera backpack, you can carry your photography and video gear along on any adventure hands-free, with the added confidence that it will be protected from the elements or destruction. The best camera backpacks are constructed of durable materials and are designed with ample padding to prevent against damage from bumps and drops. You might also consider choosing a water-resistant camera backpack if you’ve invested money in high-quality camera lenses. Whether you need a backpack for a DSLR or mirrorless camera or for your action camera, you’ll find a wide selection of backpacks for cameras and lenses with plenty of room for camera batteries and anything else you might need for the day ahead.

Finding the best camera backpack for you

Deciding which camera backpack is best for your needs depends on how much space you require for your gear. If you only plan on carrying a few camera accessories along for the trip, a small camera backpack should be adequate. However, if you need room for other supplies not related to taking pictures, like food or a change of clothes, you’ll need additional space. With a larger pack, you can also transport devices like your laptop for photo editing and a mobile hotspot for downloading and sharing details from your shoot. Having lots of zippered pouches and separate areas for things like memory cards and external hard drives can be ideal so you can quickly grab them when you’re out of storage space. Landscape photographers who rely on a tripod for steady, long-exposure shots can benefit from a DSLR backpack equipped to carry a camera stand.
