Re the buff i often wet mine and let the evaporatove cooling keep me cool in summer, also a good alternative to toilet paper is te small handy size packets of tissues you can get from cheap shops....
Interesting video! Was this backpack comfortable for long hike? As I see back panel is made from some kind of foam, so not very breathable. I'm looking for hiking/camera backpack that could be use for multiday hike and I'm not sure is it better to buy Shimoda backpack or use hiking backpack and just have camera insert.
There is a mixed feeling, because I had so much heavy stuff with me, from one side it was uncomfortable, but it was not the bag issue and from the other side backpack fitted very well, balanced the load along my back. And if we are speaking specifically about the foam on the back part, then there are special channels that allow air to circulate and the backpack itself isn't pressing into you. Additionally my back wasn't so much wet from sweat. I also was searching for a hiking/camera bag for a long time and I'm glad and happy that I choose Shimoda. The only thing, maybe I will need bigger size, 70 litres 😁
@@kestasbepno no, there was no specific side. What I meant is that I have + and - about backpack during that trip, BIG - that it was heavy. But as I mentioned it was not the bag itself problem.
@@tomas_outdoors perfect. strangly there's not so much info about using Shimoda for hiking so your experience is really useful. Greetings from Lithuanian :)
You should have a item list or something. Some of this is so clever.
Yeah, since that video I created such a list, already got 3rd iteration of it. Both for winter and summer seasons 🤗
Great video! Hope we could hike together sometimes in the UK
For sure. Was planning in the future visit Scotland or maybe any other part of the island where it would be possible to enjoy mountains 😄
Nice video!
Thanks 🤜🤛

Very helpful video!! I have 1 question.
What type of core unit is yours? Mirrorless or dslr ?
Medium Mirrorless second version. Took it out from my X30 version. So it leaves me additional space for hiking gear
