Nanuk N-PVD 30L / 35L Camera Backpacks!!! My new favorite work camera backpack! Full Review!

[@ivotodorov7069]

First of all, a huge THANK YOU mate! You make the best backpack videos on KZbin imo. I found out about Nanuk from your channel and I love their products. I am currently trying to figure out if I should get the Shimoda Action X v2 30L or 40L, or get the NPVD 35L from Nanuk. I know you have some Shimoda bags, and I was wondering if you could make a direct comparison video between them and Nanuk? Thank you.

[@DesmondCheng]

thanks man! I dont have the shimoda action x v2 bags nor have i used them so i cant say for sure.... But I will say both brands are great! I think between the two, i might lean towards the shimoda because that has a quick access! The NPVD 35L does not have a side quick access

[@ivotodorov7069]

@@DesmondChengYeah, I had the same thought. What would you take between the Nanuk 30L and the Shimoda 30L bags?

[@ivotodorov7069]

I also feel like the Nanuk isn’t that much smaller size-wise than the fstop Tilopa, which is 50L and has a lot more space.

@@ivotodorov7069 i would take the nanuk 30L. its still my goto work bag at the moment. Its quite solid. Shimoda might be a bit comfortable, but i feel like i can fit much more gear in the nanuk

@@ivotodorov7069 both lol. I use the Nanuk 30L wayyyy more than my shimoda at the moment

I don't agree with you on the laptop compartment. You are forgetting security. Your laptop probably has a lot of important files and is very expensive. I much rather have it close to my back and out of reach of any pick pockets. Way more important than the fact that it takes just a second longer at the airport.

[@DesmondCheng]

good point!

Hey Legend! Quick question about the 70-200 standing upright in the 35L, is that the GM2? I'm trying to find out if the Nanuk 35L has enough depth to store a gripped A1 and A9III, which are about 17cm tall with an arca plate on the base.

[@DesmondCheng]

yes its the gm2!

I keep ending up on your channel! Trying to find a new medium sized workhorse bag (I have a Shimoda X70 for big jobs and a Tenba Fulton 16 when I need a small footprint). I think this one might be it, but its 0.4 inches larger than the carry on size. Have you had any issues using it as a carry on? Thanks!

[@DesmondCheng]

no issues! ive taken it on about 4 flights

[@BenPhanStudios]

​@@DesmondChengThanks!

[@J-Dawg-1]

How are they compared to Tenba bags?

[@DesmondCheng]

its tough because tenba has more features, but this bag is better built

[@J-Dawg-1]

@@DesmondCheng thank you 🙏🏽

[@DesmondCheng]

@@J-Dawg-1 currently im choosing the Nanuk over the Tenba for my work stuff =)

@@DesmondCheng thank you brother.

How is it traveling with these bags?

[@DesmondCheng]

i havent travelled with the 35L yet. the 30L is fine! I'm going to be taking it on another flight next week

[@mechakoush]

My laptop (16 inch macbook) has a case, it is very difficult to fit it in, do you think the 35 will fit my laptop better?

[@DesmondCheng]

the 35L would be better, but that backpack is HUGE!
