I have the Lowepro Nature Trekker AW with a pair of small separate side bags
attached to it for day hikes. It is a little too small for my preferences &
will be replaced by the Photo Trekker AW when it is worn out.
My normal day hike gear is food & water, clothing for almost any weather
condition in mountainous BC Canada, Manfrotto 190 short tripod, LX & Z1p bodies,
extra film, A* 300/2.8, FA 100/2.8 macro, FA 20-35/4.0, FA* 200 2.8, FA
28-70/4.0, A 2xL convertor, cable releases, extra film, compass & altimeter.
My backpack is a Serratus brand internal frame model & I use clothing to protect
my camera gear. I have yet to see a backpack that is designed for the photo
enthusiast. IMO that type of backpack would only have to a partial section that
is insulated with dividers for camera gear & larger conventional section for
packing equipment.
