I've had this bag for about 2 years now and love it. From a build perspective it is extremely high quality. Stress points reinforced, handles sturdy, etc. Water resistance is excellent. The openings on the sides are the big thing for me. It really makes things easier to access. There are also several smaller pockets within the side doors that are great for holding the odds and ends. The interior dividers are pretty thin which does give you basically the full 30L to use, if you want. Really easy to adjust the straps to get the fit right. One very small downside is that the strap you use to hook it to a carry-on luggage handle is sideways which does restrict access a little bit. Overall, this bags works really well for me. I would definitely buy it again, but probably won't have to for quite a while.

The side opening and adjustable width compartments make it just as helpful for baby gear as it does camera gear. My brother used it for his diaper bag and raved about it. We first bought a cheaper travel backpack to avoid the pricey investment, but broke down to buy this one after 6 months of struggling with getting all the baby gear in and out of the bag easily. We took this back on a 2 week trip to visit family right after we got it and it was a miracle-worker. So easy to travel with! We put diapers in the bottom compartment, bottles in the middle, and toys in the top compartments where they would be most accessible on the plane without having to open the entire bag. The expansion top is really clutch for quick access and storing a swaddle, hoodie and any soft stuffies or larger toys. The tie down straps on the outside helped us carry a small park blanket and his travel baby wipes container. The water bottle/tripod pocket on both sides can hold a parent’s water bottle and baby’s water bottle. It’s soo comfortable on the back (unlike the BellRoy backpacks) and it has great adjustable straps for shorties like me and taller people. My one and only complaint is the lack of an inside or outside zipper pocket on the top flap of the bag. The older Everyday 20L Zip-Up pack has the inside pocket feature, it’s not exactly clear why they got rid of it on the extension pack. When the bag is full, expander is fully out, you desperately need that pocket. It drives me nuts that I can’t quickly shove a pacifier, or a straw, or small, tiny items like bandaids right in top for easy access. There’s a half pocket on the laptop bag slot, but it’s too narrow/compressed flat to fit a pacifier or bulkier small item. The side pockets on the side-opening flaps are too shallow/not tall enough. A lot of people have complained about this in blogs comparing the two models. Please add a zip pocket on the under side of the expansion flap and it will be the perfect bag!

This backpack is incredible, just like most Peak Design products. Every corner is thoughtful and every feature is intentional. I love this as a larger alternative to my sling back and it holds plenty of gear including most days a Nikon Z8 with attached 50mm, 70-200, 35mm, flash, and a fully packed tech pouch. It’s comfortable and so easy to use on the go.

I recently purchased the Peak Design Everyday Backpack V2 30L, and overall, I am extremely pleased with its performance and durability. It's a remarkable backpack that fulfills its promise of being an everyday companion for all my needs. However, I must deduct a star from my rating due to its limited space for cylindrical items such as pill containers and mini tripods. Let's start with the positives. This backpack is a true workhorse, designed to withstand the rigors of everyday use. The build quality is exceptional, with robust materials and solid construction. The zippers are smooth and reliable, ensuring quick access to my belongings. The weatherproofing features have proven to be effective, providing peace of mind during unexpected downpours. The various compartments and pockets are intelligently organized, making it easy to keep my essentials sorted and accessible. The comfort level of this backpack is outstanding. The shoulder straps are well-padded and adjustable, allowing for a customized fit. The back panel offers excellent ventilation, which prevents excessive sweating during extended wear. The weight distribution is well-balanced, even when carrying heavy loads. The sternum strap and waist belt add an extra layer of stability, particularly when I'm on the move or traveling. Despite all these remarkable features, there is one area where the Everyday Backpack falls short. The inner pockets, while thoughtfully designed, lack sufficient space for cylindrical items. Pill containers and mini tripods, for instance, do not fit comfortably in any of the designated compartments. While I appreciate the backpack's focus on versatility and organization, this limitation restricts its usefulness for photographers, travelers, or anyone who relies on such items. However, it's worth mentioning that the backpack's flexibility allows for workarounds. Utilizing the external attachment points or using the versatile FlexFold dividers can help accommodate these cylindrical items, albeit not as conveniently as dedicated pockets would have allowed. In conclusion, the Peak Design Everyday Backpack V2 30L is an exceptional product, living up to its reputation as a sturdy and reliable companion for everyday use. It boasts outstanding durability, comfort, and organization, making it an ideal choice for most individuals. However, its limited space for cylindrical items, such as pill containers and mini tripods, is a minor drawback that prevents me from giving it a perfect score. Despite this limitation, I highly recommend this backpack to anyone in need of a reliable and stylish companion for their daily adventures.

This backpack is the best pack I have ever owned bar none. I have Hex, Chrome, and Lowepro packs to name a few. They are all great in their own way and good for what I used them for, but this pack is more versatile, useful, and comfortable to carry. I have lower back problems, and some packs irritate my back, and I end up in pain. Not this pack. It’s so easy to adjust while wearing so that my back issues when carrying gear have gone away. I am a teacher. Due to the pandemic, I teach my courses online and enhance them with videos. I decided to shoot those videos vlog style and post them on YouTube. I needed a backpack to carry my camera, lenses, microphones, and other gear. I shoot these videos hiking with my dogs every morning. This pack has room for all my stuff and then some. I have used this pack for a couple of weeks and am still discovering ways to adapt the space to better suit the gear I want to carry. This is one of the best purchases that I have ever made. I have the Peak Design capture clip, too. Peak Design is a company that like Apple are never done perfecting their equipment. They use what they build and listen to their customers. That combination means their equipment is refined and goes beyond your expectations for how they work. I will continue to purchase their products because they are well made, and Peak Design stands behind their work providing lifetime guarantees. They are a green company with zero carbon emissions. I liked the charcoal and midnight blue colors better but bought the black because it’s the vegan option. If you are looking for an everyday backpack that is versatile, well made, comfortable to carry that protects your gear, buy this pack. You won’t be sorry. It’s the one pack to rule them all my precious.

I originally ordered the 20L version of this backpack. After a couple of weeks it was too small for my usage. I felt like it was too cramp for me to fit everything inside. I exchanged it for the 30L version and there was a huge difference. The 30L is much more usable for me. It's roomier, and feel like I can hold everything I needed and have space for more. The magnetic latch is really nice and make it easy to access the backpack without much struggle. The zippers on the left and right side is also very well made and felt durable, the zippers can be open both ways on left and right side. The backpack internal layout can be change to however you like and I appreciate that feature very much. I can reorganize things to however i feel like.The biggest plus for me about this backpack is how well thought the designer put into the little details. Every little hidden pockets, and all the location you can use to hook things onto your backpack. The water bottle pocket has a little hole inside for water to drip out of you happen to spill water in there or rain drip down in that area. The material feels really nice and durable, its quite thick and feel like it can take some beating. The laptop compartment is also nice as you can adjust the compart to fit the size of your laptop so that small laptop doesnt fall all the way down in the backpack and you have to reach deep in for it. Overall, the details are well thought out. On to the negative. What I dont like about this backpack is the shoulder strap, they fit well but they dont provide enough comfort and cushion when you load to much stuffs into your backpack. If you're carrying camera and laptop inside the backpack, walking around with this backpack on after a while will put some strain on your shoulder. They should do a major upgrade on the padding for the shoulder straps. The other complaint I is when you open the sides of the backpack to get your camera out, stuffs that you load on the very top compartment can fall out to the sides. So if you put a bunch of tiny things at the top compartment be careful when unzipping the left side and right side of the backpack or else things will come falling out. One of my other complaint has to do with the heat dissipation for your back. After carrying this backpack for a few hours at events, I can feel my back building up a lot of heat (and I dont sweat very much either). I can feel that my back was getting really hot and started to sweat. I find myself having to take my backpack off to let my back cool off pretty frequently. Other than that, I really like this backpack and I hope it will hold up well over the years. Very happy with it so far.

I've been a fan of Peak Design from the days that they were kickstarting all of their projects. I bought every single one of their products including the entire travel system but with the exception of the first messenger bag that they released, all of their bags have been sitting in my closet hardly getting used. This bag is no different. While the build quality is excellent and the improvements made to the bag are noticeable, I can't find this bag to be very useful for holding the following gear: Sony A7R3 with the 24-105G mounted Sony 100-300mm G Lens Sony 16-35mm Lens Surface Laptop 13 iPad Pro 11" First, the horizontal camera and lens pocket system is flawed in that it is too rigid and requires the entire row to be at the same height. That means that if you have physically smaller lenses (the 16-35mm) than others, they are flying around and there is nothing really to protect them other than the divider padding. There is no padding at the ends of the rows (where the pockets open up to) so the lenses are potentially banging up against whatever is in the pockets. I tried setting up the rows where the bottom row held the 100-300mm lens and the row above it held the camera with the 24-105mm lens attached and the 16-35mm lens and just could not get the setup right in a way that I felt the gear was protected. Also, that combination required the camera to be inserted sideways rather than lens first due to the length of the lens. There was plenty of room width wise but the dividers only allow you to split the row in the specific places that Peak Design chose. Past those two rows, there aren't any other dividers so if you really want to carry another lens, it needs to be in the compartment above the rest of the camera gear which is segmented by the top divider from the second row. Overall, I could not find a way to hold a basic setup. Another issue that I found was that while the 100-300mm fit quite easily into the bottom row, it took away from the laptop pocket in the back. That meant that my ultra lightweight and thin Surface Laptop 13 could not fit comfortably in the laptop pocket which is also where there is an iPad pocket and a sunglass pocket. Once I shoved both the laptop and the iPad into their respective pockets, the zipper at the top was incredibly hard to close and the back of the backpack became very rigid. Once I filled out the pockets with other items like a charger, memory card case, a couple of cables and a couple of batteries, it was clear that there wasn't a lot of room left for other essentials such as over the ears headphones, a book or snacks. The bag was extremely rigid at that point and it was hard to open up any of the zippers including the zippers to the side pockets which is the only way to get the camera and gear out. I believe that the main reason for this is due to the gear system that they use. I have the 30L as well and experienced the same issues as I described above. It is just a bigger bag but it is still not segmented correctly. I found a lot more luck in bags such as the MindShift Gear Backlight 26L Backpack where I can fit a lot more gear more securely and still fit my 15" Macbook Pro and iPad without any issues.

Sieht wirklich unglaublich gut aus und ist sehr hochwertig verarbeitet. Wer Geld in die Hand nehmen möchte bekommt hier ein wirklich tolles Produkt. Ich kann die 30 Liter Variante sehr empfehlen, hat eine optimale Größe für mich. Mit meinem MacBook Air M1 habe anders als eine andere Rezension hier keine Probleme. Meinen Recherchen nach stimmt es, dass das Macbook bootet, wenn man es ausgeschaltet in die Laptop-Tasche stellt, aber das ist für mich kein Problem, da es bei mir sowieso immer im Standby ist. Mein Macbook wird im Standby in der Tasche allerdings nicht warm, ich weiß nicht was das Problem des anderen Rezensenten ist. Kann den Rucksack also nur empfehlen, außer ihr möchtet euer Macbook ausgeschaltet transportieren.

Received wrong color item for 1st time, defect item for 2nd time. The end i spend almost 2 months tor receive a proper item and wasted alot of time for return, refund and coordinate with Amazon as most of them are not professional.

Absolutely love this bag. It’s a great upgrade if you’re in the market for a new camera bag.

Excelente espacio, está llena de compartimentos y todo está pensado excelente, caben un montón de cosas y aparte son accesibles por todos lados, perfecta calidad en materiales y resistente.

I have been eyeing this product for a LONG time…did a lot of research! Super happy with my purchase. Quality materials, great design, and can be used for everyday office needs and easily converts to a weekend bag! I do have multiple canon eq and it is adaptable to my needs. Wish the waist belt was included! Item is pricey but peak design makes amazing products. And it looks great!
