Good camera backpack?

[suprateam]

Just looking at the Kata 502...Anyone using it? Any problems with it? It looks huge, but in a good way

I took this to India and it was great. Fits in the overhead storage on a plane too. You can also roll it when you get tired of it on your back.

Re: Good camera backpack?

I use the Kata Panda with the roller attachment. It works very well. I've been overseas multiple times with it and across the country by plane, train and automobile. No regrets whatsoever. I've even ridden a galloping horse with it strapped tightly to my back. I don't advise that for camera or operator, but the pack handled it very well.

DVX fits beautifully in the top compartment. The middle compartment carries my wireless mics along with reflectors, and I keep a pag 6 battery and light in the bottom with enough room for a laptop left over.
