I have always had luck with K&F products and this bag is a good one too. It is different than others I have had in that it does not have a tone of pockets all over and it is fully configurable. It comes with a bunch of dividers that are stiffer than most I have used so they hold the shape of the created pocket better. I like that.

It is more secure for traveling without the pockets that can be opened in a crowd. It has a more secure pocket that faces your back when worn. The hardshell on the main flap is nice and helps the whole thing hold it’s shape. It is not a run and gun pack with easy access flaps and I am OK with that.

I don’t overpack as I only travel with my 13” laptop and my camera is ASPC. I also carry a 360 and action camera. I don’t have huge lenses either so I can carry everything plus some accessories. I will have to try it some more but it may be my new favorite camera backpack.

I'd expected a true hardshell case, whereas this is more like a Rubbermaid style: it's fairly rigid, but still pretty flexible. You're not going to want to sit on this while your good camera is in there, but it is way more protective than soft bags. I wouldn't hesitate to use it to toss my camera in the back of the 4Runner for some offroading, or to lug it around most areas without fear of a normal drop breaking anything, but it's definitely not a Pelican hard case you could stand on without fear.
Honestly, as long as you're not expecting a true hard case, for the price, it's an excellent choice to protect your camera gear in the conditions most people are likely to deal with, just don't expect it to survive a moose attack.

This is a great camera bag. I got it mostly for the laptop slot, but I also love that the outer shell is hard so that you’re here is protected when You set it down on the ground.
Speaking of that, it will stand upright when you set it down. No more fiddling with floppy bags, its basically a modular box that fits comfortably on your back. It not only looks nice, but it fits the same amount of stuff as one of my larger bags because of the modularity of the sections, which they give you plenty of dividers for. Also this blue color is very pretty.

Before going into details, I would like to mention that this backpack is hardshell, which means that the outer part is hard. It is not as hard as polycarbonate, which is also available, but rather a kind of very rigid foam. You either hate or love these types of backpacks. Personally, I like them a lot and I have a non-photography backpack of this format and I love it, but there are mixed opinions on this matter. As I say, I like them because they give me the feeling that everything is more protected and it is always the same size so it is easy to find a place for it once you have it under control, but if you carry only a few things it still takes up the same amount of space.

Space is undoubtedly one of the strong points of this backpack. It has a rectangular design that makes good use of space and allows you to put everything you have and even some extras. The internal dividers are very functional and allow you to organize everything efficiently. As for comfort, it fits well on the back and is comfortable to carry even when heavily loaded because it is quite balanced. The carry handle is comfortable and handy, and the chest strap helps distribute the weight. A waterproof sleeve is also included, though luckily I haven't had to use it yet. The space for a laptop up to 16 inches is also interesting, but not groundbreaking.

The padding and protection zones inside are correct, especially on the sides, although the hard-shell part of the backpack left me a bit like this, because I expected it to have a bit more thickness or a small additional layer of padding inside, and it doesn't. Anyway, for something to get damaged, the impact would have to be really strong and possibly no padding would withstand it. The zippers are correct, but after having used other backpacks, I get the feeling that they are a bit hard.

In short, it is a spacious, comfortable backpack with good ideas, but with some details that could be improved, such as the protection of the hardshell and the zippers.

When traveling we need to take a laptop with us and other electronics and of course a camera. While my Coolpix B700 doesn't take up much space we do have other items that need protection.

This is a large capacity bag that I see no problem with taking it as a carry on, with most airlines.
The outer shell offers some protection for its contents and due to the inside being completely customizable each item that is stored inside has foam protecting it.

I did a test run and filled this with my camera, a switch, laptop and 2 tablets along with various cables and charging leads. The weight distribution is good and does not feel too heavy and the addition of the chest strap makes this feel secure when you wear it.
The quality is fantastic, i much prefer luggage that stands out and this certainly does that. I am really happy with this.

I love this backpack and everything from the design to the convenience. The backpack is relatively light and contains many pockets. The front of the backpack is not a hard shell; instead, it is made of hard plastic. While it is not a hard shell, it can prevent damage to your equipment. The backpack was quite lovely to use for a prolonged time; the main issue with this backpack is the partitions that come with it. They are extremely thin and do not have any padding or support. I carry equipment worth over 6k, and I wouldn't trust a paddless partition to protect my equipment. I had to remove the old separators from my backpack and put them on this one.
Another thing I have with this backpack is that the base does not have enough padding. I put my camera at the b, bottom, so I expect it to have more padding.
Overall, I think it's a nice backpack at a reasonable price.
