Big thumbs up! you've really got it going on. I love how you focus on you're own purpose built use system. Really helpful how you have your product choices so elegantly refined. Thanks again.
Very helpful, I appreciate your thorough coverage and obvious passion for the product!
Fantastic video Desmond! Keep up the great work 👍🏼
Amazing breakdown. Great insight on being able to quick access a camera without breaking it down.
Great review, very informative. Thank you!
I was tossing between this bag and the ed 20L and after going in store I noticed due to the turtle bubble design of the ed zip it actually looks about the same size on my 5”3 frame. I think it’s due to the depth but either way I love my Ed 20L as it gives me that extra space at the top if I ever need it which has come in very handy so far. Love the way you configured the bag intervals!
Brilliant examples - great vid 👍
That was a very good review, thanks
Your reveiw really make me want to buy it!
Can’t go wrong with Desmond Wong! 🎉
Thanks for awesome videos! I'm considering buying this, the everyday tote or the prvke 21 to use together with my PD 35L duffle. The backpack will carry minimal travel camera gear (A7r3, 28-75 + small lens) and clothes etc in the duffle. Which one do you think I should go with? The backpack will be used on destination for working, exploring, smaller trips etc. So hard haha. Also, the way you use the top part to store camera with mic on is a game changer! Do you think by adjusting the dividers that a Sony with Ninja V attached could fit? Thanks again for great content!
I like listening you,very nice explanation!
Great review thanks! What are your thoughts on the 15l for carrying an a9 70-200mm f4 (new sony one), the 16-35f4 pz and the 55mm f1.8, go pro kit like yours and filters, spare batteries , water bottle and maybe a tripod on the outside. I thought for sure the 20l but seeing how much you in the 15l im now unsure!
I own the 10 liter sling, the 30 liter everyday backpack v2. I am going on a trip and I don't want to use my 30 liter because the bag is going to be with my pretty much the whole time and it is too big. My sling is not going to fit what I want to bring, I use that if I'm going on day of shooting. This was the perfect size for my camera body and three lenses and accessories. Awesome review, you sold me on the bag, just ordered it in black, very thorough review.
Exact same for me. Got the 10 and the 30. Deciding if I go 15 or 20. How’s it going so far? Is 15 too small?
this is one of the best reviews where I've seen someone actually show us how to pack it with different setups! For the FX3 w/ mic combo, is it possible to access that from the side or is it only from the top? Would be awesome if it was convenient to access from the side with the mic attached.
Definitely possible to access to the side - you'll just need to make sure you shift the dividers to allow for a deep enough space since the mic will protrude. Most efficient way - with mic - is probably from the top though.
I’m currently using the same backpack for a quite sometimes. But I loved the way you configure the dividers! Never thought to configure that way. Got my subs.
Thanks, Irfan! Glad you found this helpful. I love the config - especially since I carry too much gear 🤣 but it’s perfect for multiple camera bodies without needing a bigger bag.
Hi Desmond Wong may I check the the PGYTECH Mantispod is Pro, or is it same as PGYTECH MANTISPOD 2.0 Bluetooth Mini Camera & Cell Phone Vlogging Tripod | 6 tks I am interested to get one tks you
Nice review. Since you’ve reviewed two of the bags I’m considering I’m curious to know which you’d prefer for a work/photography hybrid. I’m leaning towards the PD ED Tote because it’s a little bigger with a different design then your transitional backpack.
Hey! Good question - I think if it’s between those two and you’re looking for something that’s good for the office/work - ie bringing a laptop and other items - the Totepack is a solid option. It’s taller and also flatter in over all profile. It should fit your laptop nicely and also have room for camera, lens, etc. the tote handles make it really easy to pick up and put down at your desk or during a commute. The only challenge is that the side access isn’t as wide open as the ED zip. Which means pulling your camera out can sometimes be a pain.
The ED Zip - I love as a day bag for camera gear - but will likely never carry it to work - where I need to bring my laptop, charger and other things. An option could be the 20L ED Zip - but it defeats the purpose of a smaller edc. I do prefer the ES Zip for camera carry over the Totepack.
So I would say if it’s a work first kind of bag where you need your laptop and those things - with a camera, Totepack is great. And it can even fit an entire tripod inside. The straps are a bit thin - but totally comfortable if it’s not fully loaded all the time. I would also recommend against using the capture clip on the Totepack - the straps are thin and I always get scratched by my clip when putting the Totepack on 🤷🏻♂️
@@ItsDesmond Thanks for taking the time. I also have the peak design 5L and 10L slings. Even though they are great slings I find myself wishing I had a little more room to fit things like a mic or small tripod. The 10L is too big for my smaller camera setup and not exactly compact or comfortable to wear with my full-frame gear in most settings. The 5L is perfect for my fuji xs10 and two additional lenses but I have to jam other things in I'd want. Maybe I'll do what any sane bag lover would do and buy both the totepack and the 15L and get rid of the sling altogether. Ah...decisions.. decisions In any case appreciate the feedback, keep turning out these great reviews.
Hi Desmond! I really love the idea of having the camera w/ mic staying attached inside of the bag 👍👍 qq Does this backpack stand on its own? If you were to place it on the floor does it fall over?
It does stand on its own. One of the reasons why I love carrying my camera and mic in the top. Like a little compact set up table when open.
Thank you for asking that! Haha I've been watching every PD Everyday Zip video I can find just to see if anyone will let it stand up on its own... but most reviewers don't let go of this bag for long enough 🤓
Also, Desmond, thanks for answering! Great review and demo!
hey mate! Amazing video! Just one thing - can I put my 16" macbook pro with m1 max chip inside? If can fit safely than this is the best bag EVER! Or I have to take 20L ?
U have to take the 20l version, the 15l version only csn fit a 13" laptop
Hi!! Do you have any comments on adding a hip belt to this backpack? I saw there is a small opening at the bottom, behind the luggage spacing, but not sure if a hip belt could be attached.
Also, how big water bottles can it hold? And do you know how much water it can withstand in the rain?
Hey! I haven’t tired a waist strap - it’s honestly light enough not to require one. You’re only limited to so much space. In terms of water bottle - I would say a 20-32 ounce water bottle is possible. The 32oz would have to be tall and slender vs the wider design. And for rain - the weather sealing is solid - the down side - no rain cover included. So I wound not recommend sitting in rain for prolonged periods of time - no matter how great weather sealed zippers are - eventually water makes its way in.
I watched your video on the peak design zip 15L, my question is would this backpack be okay putting a canon R3 with the rf 24-70 lens on the body?
Hey! Yes - vertically that setup will fit in the side access pockets. It would just take up most of one side. But that leaves more space up top and on the other side. All depends on how you configure the folding flaps. But it will definitely fit the R3 and 24-70 combo
Can it fit a 15inch (actual size 14 inch when measured ) Lenovo gaming laptop ? Or is it gonna be a tight fit.
Could you also mention your height for reference
It’s going to be a very tight fit. Especially if the Lenovo is thicken than your average MacBook. I would say this is great for 13 inch MacBook Pro - IPad and that’s about it. I primarily use this as a compact adventure backpack - where i bring a medium amount of gear. I will normally travel with a full sized gear backpack like my wandrd prvke if I need laptops and more gear. I’ll also have a small sling back or even this bag - so I can transfer setups to the smaller bags for day trips or hikes and leave my travel camera bag at the hotel. I’m 5’10.
😂 you like the vulva nature lol
Can this fit under a seat on an international flight? I know the airlines all vary, but have you used it like that?
Yes. This will fit. It’s a pretty narrow bag and the organization setup still allows for efficient carry options.
@@ItsDesmond Thank you for the quick reply. One of my travel nightmare scenarios is overheads are full, and the airline personnel want me to check my bag full of camera equipment! I've got a Thinktank Retrospective 15, but I'm wondering if the PeakDesign would work better for me.
Man I sometimes can’t believe I passed on this bag, I was just not a big fan of the side access and the bag “vomiting” your gear when opened. I picked a Langly Alpha Compact as my main bag, great looking and solid bag imo but it sometimes feels like the space may not be enough (can fit everything I have for now though). Right now I’m looking to buy a sling for everyday use and I’m out with my wife and daughter so I don’t miss any photo opportunities and I’m definitely considering the PD slings.
Honestly - same feeling for me! I passed on this bag a couple times actually. Once when deciding on the Peak Everyday Totepack and again when buying the Ona Monterey Backpack. But I will say - there’s always room for another bag 🤣 I’m at the point where I have 1 perfect bag for each scenario. My wife is clearly sick of it.
But for sling bags - I love the peak design 3L sling - did a review really early on and it’s the best minimalist sling I own. Unfortunately my set up has grown a bit - so I use the Ona Rockaway Sling as my go to sling bag. Fits one body and a lens, one body with go pro or Zv-1 and small tripod OR TWO Bodies with lens!!
@@ItsDesmond ah yes, you can’t have enough bags lol. That’s exactly why I’m looking to pick up a sling so I don’t have to carry my backpack around. Definitely watched both reviews of yours (great ones, I might add!) and might be picking up the PD 3L sling. I currently have an A7III with a 35+85 1.8, and that’s as much as I’ll carry on a sling for now. It’s just a way to have my camera always with me.
Did you have 3 deviders in there or just 2?
It came with 3. I use all three with my “T” setup. One for the top and two in the bottom
Is it compatible with a 14" MacBookPro?
Yes it will fit 👌🏽
Wow
Wow-great vid! I'm rediscovering PD after HATING THEM when they started. I think they're finally getting around to fixing their mistakes. E.G The mag latch closer on 20L is no question beautiful. But if you load up the top of the bag-it sucks big time. Exposes top to water, doesn't close securely-so effectively it limits the EFFECTIVE working space of the bag. I got so pissed off about paying the design team for a beautiful bag that only works empty.
Now this finally looks like something!-more efficient, better thought out... I'm starting to go all in now on PD-totes, slings, (I had to modify original field pouch to make it work) Now maybe this one. I also love the travel packs-the modules seem to make these origami dividers suddenly make sense. I've always felt they were an awkward PITA-You got a lens. e.g. in the center, lower shelf - it basically might as be buried in the family crypt. Do I want to swap out my lens? Nah? I'll just use what';s already on the camera. The side pockets look way better than the labyrinthine mess in original EDPB. Thanks-I better finish watvhing.
Thanks for watching! Yeah - totally agree with the first gen PD bags. I’ve been avoiding the everyday backpack for a long time. Which is funny because I’ve bought most of the newer bags from them that deviate from the original OG design. And definitely agree that their recommended 2-3 level divider setup is pretty useless most of the time. Which is why I really like the T style layout.
They just released their new version their travel bags as well. A slightly smaller version their travel bag looks pretty cool and has that more clamshell opening style you can use with camera cubes and packing cubes.
Can it fit 14 inch mbp?
Yes! Fits my 14 inch MBP perfectly.
@@ItsDesmond great. Do you think it would fit an ipad pro 11 m2 with smart folio keyboard or same kind setup with Huawei matebook e OLED or matebook e go OLED? While fitting the mbp 14 still?
@@kovacstamas4175 I've had my MBP and Ipad Pro 12.9 in the backpack at the same time. It will fit - but keep in mind it will be snug. it definitely takes up a lot of space away from the internal storage area.
@@ItsDesmond okey. So smaller ipad mbp 14 and z9 and a1 will be a strong Hussle :DD
The uneven paintings on your wall bother me lol
Lol sometimes they tip and it drives me crazy too!
