TARION PBL Camera Backpack

Ok I've waited for 3 months of use before deciding to write a review as I wanted to use it in the field and 'real life' not just to add my thoughts as a review on opening it up as soon as I received it. So after three month and a lot of walking and use, I must say this fits the bill very well. I wanted a bag large enough to carry my Olympus m4/3rds camera with several lenses including the 40-100 Pro lens, all other accessories and my drone which I can fit in it's original soft case in to the lower compartment with on occasions I have stuffed either side of it either spare jumpers, lightweight jackets, gloves, and even managed to get my filter case in with the drone also in this compartment, its really handy to be able to carry my drone in its case as I can split it easy enough then. The drone is a DJI mini 3 Pro but even better, the bag actually comes with another bag inside a bit larger the DJI bag, so you could use this for a drone or further camera equipment. My camera equipment I put in the top compartment and it has several soft velcro partitioners to segregate stuff as required, it also comes with a waterproof cover. Waist strap and chest straps are good and the emergency whistle on the chest straps helps get my deaf dogs attention. Side mesh pockets both sides, I usually carry a sit mat with a small tarp in one and the other I carry my tripod or bottle. Two great external pockets one being hard which I carry my phone is and the cargo net is great for stuffing coats or jumpers under once it gets a bit warm. Waist belt has two small pockets for keys etc. Overall this has plenty of storage and great features. If I don't need my drone that bottom space is good for using as a normal rucksack and crammed full with equipment and clothes. I wanted a large bag with compartments for camera stuff and or drone, but find I just stuff my drone in, in the original case it came with into the bottom compartment, as its smaller than the one supplied I can still cram even more stuff in around it. If you're after a large case at a great price, this is it. The ability to alter the sizing for individual back lengths is a great thought too, once on my back and loaded up, its comfy and stable and I have covered several miles now carrying this on my back. Another attention to detail, which I never thought about until I started using this pack is the hard plastic on its base so it stands up unsupported, so saves lying my pack down on mud/or wet grass as I have to do millions of times in the past! Three months down the line with a fair amount of use and two photography holidays later I am MORE than happy.

I have a couple of old camera rucksacks and bags, I think the newest is about 7 years old. I have a lot of camera kit and have recently added a couple of DJI drones to the mix, Mini SE and a mini 3 Pro. I wanted a bag big enough to fit camera, a couple of lenses, laptop, batteries, drones, drone bits and anything else needed for a weekend shoot. It needed to be rugged, protective and comfortable, if possible also reasonably priced too. I have to say that this fits all the requirements. First off the secondary bag is a nice idea, hiding in the bottom compartment and being able to clip it on as a belly bag is a great idea, although a little fiddly to get the clips in while wearing the rucksack once on an easy to access and comfy addition. Onto the main body, I use a Nikon D750 (or similar) and I can get this with a 24-120mm lens into the camera section easily, with the dividers being movable fitting in anything I need is possible, but you will struggle to get anything bigger than most 300mm lenses in attached to the body (obviously depending on make model etc, but you aren't going to manage you huge f2.8 800mm zoom in here). There is a sleeve in front of the camera compartment that takes a tablet easily then zips in place in front of the lenses, with outer cover zipping up again. There are two good sized front pockets with compartments inside, plenty of room for memory cards, cables, batteries, pens, notepad etc, well secured to. Then the bottom compartment, on arrival the dividers are flat in the bottom to allow the shoulder/belt bag to fit in, you could leave them like this and get some clothing in there, or waterproofs, its a nice amount of room, or like I did you can set the dividers to fit 2 drones. The pockets are deep enough to slide a sub 250g DJI drone into, with space for controller, batteries and even a screwdriver set added in the other storage bits. The outer cover for this section is well zipped and has a pair of web straps over the outside as well so it nice and secure. There are 2 big elasticated pockets on the sides with the usual straps to secure tripods, if you want them. Also the shoulder straps can be completely removed and adjusted to suit your personal preference and build, this is a very nice feature as I am tall, 6' 4", but I also have a fairly long back so these adjustments make a big difference if you are lugging your kit about for a day. With the addition of a separate rain cover I can't really think of any shortcomings for this set up, ideal if you have a lot of kit, adjustable for comfort with comfy shoulder straps, it feels solid and is very adjustable to suit. At the price it's being sold for it is an excellent bargain. I can only recommend.

Excellent build quality. I've had quite a few camerabags over the years but this js by far the best - think Mercedes vs Nissan Micra. Loads of pockets, spaces for accessories and easily adjustable separaters for lenses, etc. Very well padded so everything feels protected. I love how easy it to use with the side opening for my camera saving me from completely taking it off. It fits nicely on my back and doesn't feel overly heavy due to the wide shoulder straps. Very happy to recommend

I've used this back a few times now and I like it. All the zips seems of a good quality, with soft plastic ties attached to them that make it easier to open and close them. The bag itself is spacious, with plenty of velcro dividers the allow for the making of compartments that stop your kit from moving about in the bag. The bag is well padded. It also has good carry straps, with wide, padded shoulder straps. I like the side-opening for easier access to my camera. Two things that stop me giving this a five-star rating: the side opening is on the left-hand side, but I am right handed, so have always slipped a rucksack off my shoulders from left to right. It would be good if it were possible to get the option when purchasing to either have a right or left side opening. The other thing that stops the five-star rating is the lack of a waist strap. There is a torso strap, but this doesn't help with sliding off the rucksack when I want to get at my camera using the side opening. This might be less of an use of I were left-handed, but I still end up having to removing the rucksack completely. Perhaps in time I'll get used to slipping the rucksack off my right shoulder (as shown in the image).

Only the siding parts it's not perfect Bit the quality is good

Si on excepte les situations de shooting extérieur où on doit de toute façon disposer d'un véhicule pour trimballer lumières, pieds, batteries, câbles et autres, le choix d'un sac à dos de type rando n'est pas des plus faciles. Souvent, l'achat d'un seul nouveau matériel remet en question toute l'organisation que l'on avait mise au point quelques mois auparavant. Le plus petit drone de poche ou le gimbal dernier cri ne trouveront pas leur place dans notre bon vieux et fidèle sac. Et la super promo qui nous avait décidé pour cet achat se voit, dans la foulée, engloutie par l'achat d'un nouveau sac. Certains me diront qu'il suffit d'anticiper ces situations en prévoyant un sac surdimensionné à la base. OK. Sauf que la place prévue dans le sac "au cas où" se trouve toujours être une bonne occasion pour la remplir de trucs dont on s'était jusque là passé. Et bim. Voilà pourquoi j'en suis à mon troisième sac en 1 an avec ce Tarion. Franchement, hormis le fait qu'il va me permettre d'emporter avec moi (toujours plus !) de matos, je suis très surpris par la qualité de fabrication : coutures, fermetures, espaces, pochettes, tout est parfaitement construit, pertinent et inspire la durabilité. Le seul défaut, et qui n'est pas inhérent au sac lui-même, c'est que les fabricants n'ont pas encore mesuré combien la pratique photo/vidéo a évolué ces dernières années : Aux purs et durs du reflex ou de l'hybride plein format (dont j'ai longtemps fait partie) est venu s'ajouter un groupe grandissant de switchers et de nouveaux venus à l'image fixe ou animée qui privilégient la capture au smartphone. Le monopod vient remplacer — et souvent très avantageusement - les (lourds) trépieds. Les cages de type Beastgrip, Smallrig ou autres, les lumières continues portables ultras compactes et puissantes, les objectifs adaptés, le matos de son déporté désormais accessible, les drones, bref, j'en passe... tout ce qui permet des set ups improbables il y a peu encore, change la donne. S'il vous plait, Tarion et autres... continuez à faire ce que vous savez très bien faire, à l'image de ce sac que je viens d'acheter et qui est top. Mais, de grâce ! fabriquez-nous AUSSI des sacs adaptés à ce nouveau mode de capture d'image ! Les gros objectifs, les gros boitiers, c'est fini pour moi. Et je ne crois pas être le seul. Le dernier keynote d'Apple a été filmé avec un iPhone 15 Pro (avec il est vrai tout ce qui faut autour y compris des grues à $200 000 !). Mais tout de même, ça ne vous alerte pas ? ;-)

I liked everything about it except for one feature the competing bag had going for it. The EVA hard shell is in the middle, which itself is fine as your primary camera sits behind it slightly, but I'm seldom whacked directly in the centre of the back and as the bag has wide set and stable plastic feet on the base, I don't see it falling over too easily or to warrant the case being there. Furthermore, it has webbing to allow it to not open fully, or much really, and with all of the compartments inside doesn't hold much. The bag I settled on has the EVA on the top (slanted at a 45), it's empty except for the lining and opens fully, using the collar of the main compartment to act as a table of sorts as well as a secure compartment closer to the back of my head which is where I get hit more often than not if not paying attention while shooting. Back to the bag at hand... Overall, the bags are virtually identical short of the colours used on the tabs and accents, of and this bag has a name printed inside liner on the main compartments. It's beautiful. The child bag is a great addition, but I mainly got it for travel via rail or ferry for walking trips. This bag allows full customization inside the main cavity. As i only have one camera and a couple of accessories I took the child bag out of the base and filled the compartment with clothes for the day or two trip, iPad in the back, camera up top and toiletries and cannabis goodies in the many supplementary compartments. Could use the child bag for a separate toiletries bag too depending on your trip and needs. Very versatile and well made, a buy!

Lo zaino è molto capiente ed offre la possibilità di portare con sé fino a 2 corpi macchina, 7 lenti, un treppiede e numerosi diversi accessori accessori, come laptop o tablet, taccuini e libri senza la mancanza della possibilità di trasportare oggetti di più piccole dimensioni come schede sd e batterie. Tuttavia esso può contenere anche oggetti non utili all’impiego in un set fotografico (e videografico). Il prodotto offre la possibilità di separare dallo zaino una ulteriore “borsa” che è contenuta solitamente all’interno, dello stesso per ottimizzare gli spazi, fornendo ulteriore posto per attrezzatura o oggetti di vario tipo. Nei due scomparti principali vi è la possibilità di dividere a proprio piacimento i divisori. Realizzato con ottimi materiali, lo zaino è resistente a schizzi d’acqua tenendo al sicuro il contenuto e viene fornito assieme a una copertura per tutto il prodotto anti-pioggia. Ricco di tasche e cerniere, è rifinito con particolari in colorazione arancione, richiamando la colorazione del logo. Ottima esperienza con lo zaino, che rende più semplice il trasporto di attrezzatura sia in condizioni di riprese e scatti in ambienti montani, sia per produzioni video dove si necessita di uno zaino di grosse dimensioni, senza però essere assente nelle situazioni di shooting con poca attrezzatura grazie alla possibilità di separare la sopracitata borsa contenuta all’interno. Che dire?! Consigliatissimo per comodità e la qualità dei materiali.
