Removable Padded Insert
The flexible Padded Insert gives your equipment protection on all sides. Like the bag itself, it is flexible front-to-back to allow it to fit slightly bigger gear than its dimensions suggest.
2x vertical dividers and 1x horizontal flap divider are included and can be attached anywhere inside with Velcro®.
The Padded Insert can be removed to turn the bag from a camera bag to a casual backpack in seconds with the unbuttoning of a pop-clip.
Inside the Main Compartment
The main compartment opens with a double zip to help you get to your gear quickly. The leather trim around the zip helps to protect it from the rain.
Shown here with the padded insert removed.
An internal pocket behind the front flap provides space to put notepads, chocolate, etc. While not designed to carry a tablet, an iPad with a screen size up to 11” will fit (you may want to add a slim case).
Front Pocket
The pocket on the front of the 35 Rucksack is great to store tissues, lens wipes, phones, and batteries.
It too closes with double zip. Furthermore, it is protected by its own top flap that closes with our bespoke clogball brass fastening for extra security.
Shoulder Straps
The ergonomically designed shoulder straps are lined with spacer fabric to promote breathability as well as having brass loops so the straps can be easily adjusted for length to suit the wearer.
In between the straps at the top of the bag is a small loop to hang the bag from.
Discrete Styling
The particularly discrete styling of the 35 Rucksack means that it doesn’t look like a camera bag at all, ideal for traveling without drawing attention.
Tripod Loops
Want to carry a tripod too? The 35 Rucksack features brass loops under the front pocket that can attach leather 5/8 tripod straps.
What Fits?
- Most DSLRs with a small-to-medium lens attached (e.g. Canon 5D, Nikon D850 without battery grip). Plus 2 to 4 lenses (tall enough for a 70-200mm not attached to the camera).
- Almost any mirrorless camera (e.g. Fujifilm XT-4, Sony A7IV, Canon R6, Nikon Z7) with small to medium lens attached. Plus 1-3 lenses.
- Two rangefinder cameras (e.g. Leica M10 & Leica M6) with almost any lens attached. With room left for extra lenses.
- Some medium format cameras such as the Hasselblad 500CM with 80mm attached, Fujifilm GFX-50S with small to medium lens attached, Hasselblad H6D with small lens attached etc. Plus room for extra lenses.
- Almost any TLR camera with room to spare.
- Small foldable drones such as Mavid Air 2 or Mavic Mini 2 with space to spare.
Can you fit a laptop or tablet in this bag?
You can fit a 9.7", 10.2", 10.5" or 11" inch iPad in the pocket on the back of the main flap.
The bag wasn't designed to hold a laptop. However a 12.9" iPad Pro, MacBook Pro 13" (4th Gen - late 2016 onwards), MacBook Air 11" or MacBook Air 13" (3rd Gen - late 2018 onwards) will fit between the front of the padded insert and the main flap. They aren't very well protected in this position but a thin slipcase that didn't add too much to the length or width could help protect the device (the ones we make would not be suitable for this as they are too large).
It would not be possible to fit a 15 inch laptop in this bag at all.
The laptops and tablets can't be laid flat against your back in the bag as the pop-clips holding the insert in place would get in the way.
