Peter McKinnon Made AN EVERYDAY Camera Bag... My thoughts

[@thechrishau]

What camera bag are you using right now? What did you think of Peters!? Also PHOTOGRAPHERS UNITE. Drop your IG's below so I can peep your work :)

Using a camera bag that isn't a camera bag! So this is on the list! also @craig_reid_

Using a lunch bag atm, I'm glad I waited to get a camera bag. The everyday bag looks good. I'm a beginner photographer in the Mississauga area. @hayeletsgo Also, no ASMR?? was expecting some zipper, magnet ASMR.

Solid walk through! Really appreciated the modelling by Lizzie. Can't tell you how hard it is to find bag reviews that show how big a bag is on a girl 🙏

[@ScottHervieuxOutdoors]

I'm 5'5" so on the short side also.

[@AsianWithHat]

I like the bag, unfortunately my original Nomatic bag had a zipper failure on the main compartment and it has been a daunting task to get Nomatic to RMA the old bag. I'm hoping that they resolved the stitch failures that the previous one had instead of doing two rows of stitching for the main zipper I'm hoping they did enough to make it last a lifetime.

[@chrisclark5135]

I'm not on the level of needing that bag quite yet, but that sling has my name all over it. Simply brilliant!

[@thechrishau]

Ohh that sling is money.

[@ethangarz]

Chris I’ve been watching you for a little over 2 years now and while I’ve always though you were great, you’ve really just evolved this year and I love It. I feel like the videos are so much more you now and It beautifully authentic, keep It up brotha!

[@NBTJacklyn]

OMGOSH the guitar intro was immaculate 🙌🏻

[@ur_fem_prince1484]

Thank you

[@JoeyHoogendoorn]

Pete's bags definitely look nice. I'm someone who does like the side access though. I quite like the side door while I'm cycling around or don't intend to change lenses much. When you are frequently changing around your lenses/filters etc the rear access is a lot nicer of course.

[@SimonNeilScott]

Looks amazing. My only criticism (as someone who uses lowerpro) is that with the straps being attached to the back section. If someone was to unzip it while on your back (as a joke or theft), the entire bag could fall open. Whereas with the lowerpro design, the bag will remain shut, which is something that gives me an extra feeling of security.

[@thechrishau]

Solid point

[@ScottHervieuxOutdoors]

Good point. God knows I destroyed alot of zippers. Not only the seams. What about the zipper teeth separating. Didn't even think of that in my long comment.

I have to agree with Lizzie. I purchase the whole bundle of the first version the bag is big for me. I have used the small backpack I that bundle. The bigger is more for travel and we all know how that is right now 😃

[@bigthinker-zp3sg]

That guitar intro was great

[@Adilboukind]

he should have made the entire review with the guitar

[@Supercoopershooter]

Sounds kinda like a peak design everyday pack pack. And the sling kinda feels like that too

[@WatchmanNiel]

It does seem to compare favorably in terms of weight, the ladder version is just as heavy as the PD ZIP 20L with dividers (3.42 lbs / 1.55kg), but of course offers some extra volume. The standard PD backpack is rather heavy - even the 20L version is already at 2.01kg / 4.43lb.

[@GerardPampani]

I used the peak design bag for about a week. Although this looks like it on the outside. It solves the problem I had with the bag which was the dividers. It was just super awkward to use

Your honest feedback led me to getting a protactic over the last bag and saved me a ton of money. Not in the market for a new bag but figured I would drop in and support you. This one looks a lot better than the last one. I do like that cube set up, that's really cool. If I could afford it I'd get it, but dont need a bag (I need more lights and upgrades glass haha).

[@travellingmobstr]

I need that bag for my travelling and cameras! 😍😍

[@satar9]

The bag seems solid, the one downside is that the cube system lacks additional protection on top of the equipment to prevent potential rustling and movement or clacking of items in the top of the bag when it is closed. now, i am probably stretching here, but it might be useful to get some foam or something to put on top for more protection just in case.

[@amylupekha7101]

Just waiting for the day a sling or side bag is made with something like that top "loft area" that's in the everyday bag. I love having the overhead view while shooting so I can easily switch out lenses while still having another area for anything else I might want to bring along (drinks, medications, small details, etc) and not have the worry it will leak through to the other compartments or be able to spread condensation. Plus having it closed from the top view while not in use keeps it looking clean and organized.

[@rhythmchakma4335]

wow im excited!!! it looks great!

[@TuckerPearce]

The LIKE card was well done, hit like at the beginning so I was covered. Cool video breakdown, seemed very honest even as a friend of Peter’s.

[@Tony16610]

The reason the straps are in front of the zippers in the Lowepro bag is so that the weight of your gear does not put strain on the zippers, which are more likely to break or suffer deformities if you're expecting them to "hold" the bag together; especially with some weight in it, by being the stress point between the straps and the rest of the bag. I would much rather have the function of my zipper and threads to be solely in keeping my bag shut, even if I need to move theem out of the way.

[@TheHallberger]

I love that when the Lowepro falls into the PmK bag it still stands 😍

[@AweSamAlways]

Chris, looking good my guy! I hope you're feeling healthier too!

Love that Cash sounding guitar intro!! Love love the features on the everyday camera bag - one of my biggest complaints about a lot of the bags out there is that they aren’t for everyday use or limiting in so many ways. So many of the features (like the loft & suitcase slide - CUBES! Hate every design with those stupid Velcro rearrangeable sections) I have thought about wanting in a bag - Good stuff!

[@hectorohh]

I have way too many bags, the good thing about having too many bags is it’s never enough.

[@iTriguy1]

This looks to have the same issue as the other bag. If you haven't gone completely mirrorless you shouldn't bother. I bought the Nomatic X and I wish I didn't as it simply is not deep enough to hold my camera with the grip pointing up. My old LowePro can hold two DSLR bodies with their grips. My 70-200 f2.8, 300 f2.8, 24-70 f2.8 along with a bunch of accessories.

[@jarisalmenaho5431]

Cheers for the review. One question, does the PD Capture Clip V2work with these straps? I like this bag a lot, but the capture clip is essential for me. Thanks.

[@martindalpe.photography]

good bag for small kit. the only problem I see with that bag, the strap are connected to the panel that flip, you see it as positive, what I see is the weight will be apply to the zipper, in the long run, the zipper has big chance to fail because of the weight stress apply on it. on all camera bags I own, for now the one I like most is the Manfrotto Bumblebee 130, on a photoshoot trip ( 10 to 14 days ) , I have 9 kilos of equipments and walk 10 to 15 km a day without problems. But I'm always looking at new bags, I think you can always do better.

Might pick up the sling and then put it in the 35L bag. However also looking at the cube. Can’t decide lol

My gf and my closest friends think I'm a broken record when I say I've been wanting to combine my love for biking and interest in taking photos as I go. It's been a bit of trial and error, but there was one bag I missed placed a year ago... it was the north face lumbar mountain bike fanny pack (also comes with strap to use as a sling). I loved that bag so much on my rides and was a life saver at times, it is now hard to find in my area but finally ordered a new one on ebay! Hopefully it can solve my new edc biking set up, as well as my minimal edc😊. If not I'll give his sling a try👌🏼.

[@absoldati]

It would be nice if they made extra camera cubes so if you have different setups/gear for different shoots, it would help organize ones storage shelves at home/studio. Other than that, I really like the new bag. I have the other P.M. Nomatic bag, and I love that for traveling.

[@papsny]

I've had a bunch of camera bags over the years. So far only one bag has stood out the test of time and functionality: The Jansport (Black) backpack + Domke wraps You see, when you're a beginner you're into all these gear that you think you need to carry everywhere. But as time goes on and you master your craft, you realize that all the gear in your backpack is slowing you down. A good camera body + a 35mm or 50mm does the job 90% of the time. (I personally use a Sony A7RIV + 35mm.) For every day, EDC kinda gear, I carry a RX100 VII and a ZV-1. But what about when you do weddings or professional work? That's when I use a Think Tank Production Manager 40 + Think Tank roller bag. Because you need to save as much energy as you can and have all your gear + backups. Something that a backpack won't be able to do. I think the PM bag is more for his fanboys, or perhaps the casual photographer/videographer. You see, PM is the type of guy that gets his income doing content. He's not the type who shows up at 4AM to shoot a wedding or be pressure to do a 15-30 minute professional studio shoot. So for his needs, the bag might be great! For the beginner, sure why not? But for those who need something fast or robust, there are other solutions out there. 2 cents

Excellent video Chris! It does make me want to run out and pick this one up (when available).

[@theunsunghero9]

Regarding securing a tripod, you havent watched the KS campaign, have you? With the strap design on the lowepro, the tension if carrying a heavy backpack is on the frame. Where is the tension if the straps are on the back panel, below the zipper? All the pressure is on the zipper. How long will that last? Don´t be so quick to jump on the hype, the lowepro is a best seller for a reason.
