The reviewer notes that the adjustable shelves are not shaped specifically to hold individual lenses or camera bodies. A separate padded rear section holds laptops or tablets, and the reviewer reports that a MacBook Pro fits comfortably. Foam back panels and gaps between them help circulate air, while the reviewer found the backpack comfortable to carry.
Travel handling includes a luggage-handle pass-through and a dedicated top passport pocket positioned between the backpack and wearer's back. Expandable side pockets provide extra room for a mini tripod or water bottle, and a removable pouch helps users access specific items.
