Tamrac Adventure 7: Slide 1

Tamrac Adventure 7 Camera Bag Mini-Review

I do a lot of day trekking with my camera. By a lot, I mean every day I'm out in the mountains anywhere from an hour to all day. I needed a way to carry my gear backpack style. I didn't want to leave anything at home: I wanted all of it with me. The thought of some poor lens or filter or something, left behind at home, all lonely and sad, just made me ache.

 

A couple of months ago I picked up a Tamrac Adventure 7 camera backpack and I haven't been able to imagine myself without it since.

 

This bag is very well constructed. Fit and finish are top notch, and the fasteners are rugged. The material is weather/moisture resistant and all zippers have a weather flap.

 

The backpack consists of a lower compartment for camera gear, a top compartment for incidentals, and a front flap pocket for memory, batteries, and other related gear.

 

Each side has an elastic mesh pocket which can support a tripod or a water bottle or both. The pack is equipped with a sternum strap which buckles the shoulder straps together in the front and helps distribute the load, and a waist strap which cinches around you and keeps the pack firmly in place. There are also fasteners here and there for additional Tamrac accessories which I haven't taken advantage of yet.
