TenbaAxis v2 24L Camera Backpack for DSLR and Mirrorless Cameras and Lenses Plus a 16-inch Laptop – Black (637-756)

I Like: That they include a generous number of padded divider panels. That I'm able to put my body and lenses towards the top of the bag, better balance, and have a row of less fragile items across the bottom. That the bag seems very sturdy and well made even if that does make it slightly heavier. That the laptop compartment is towards the front which results in a much more comfortable bag. That there's still just enough space at the top of the main compartment for my gortex jacket, a scarf and a pair of fingerless gloves. That the side pocket folds flat when not in use. The dual chest straps which are so much more comfortable!I Don't Like: That the I have yet to find suitable MOLLE pouches to replace the various little external pouches and pockets that other backpacks have. That the bag is only available in Black or Might As Well Be Black Camo.

This is an awesome bag and would be my ideal design in how I can imagine the perfect bag to be, but with more depth to accommodate an assembled rig. I would love to have exact design but 3 inches deeper and more rigid sides. That would be the next bag I'd buy over an over again. I instead purchased a new Cineluxe 21, my current favorite. It's my second purchase of the Cineluxe.Note to Tenba: Please consider making the Axis V2 to accommodate a camera rig. Overall, great work on making quality professional products.

Returned it because you cannot fully access even one FULL side of the laptop space. One odd design choice they made was the laptop space has a zipper that starts about an inch in from the top side and goes around just one corner of the laptop pocket and not fully down that second side. Result is you only get a corner that opens to that space with the one zip and you need to shove your laptop in from an angle and hope it will pivot into the laptop pocket. That might work with some 16 inch laptops with round corners, does not work with mine. The laptop space is easily big enough for just about any 16 inch if even one full side would zipper open so that the laptop would slide STRAIGHT IN, but you cannot open even one full side with the partial zipper design. That meant instant fail for me, and I had to return it.

This is my third camera bag from this maker. They provide well thought out designs with rugged but good looking materials. For me, the side pockets are essential for quick access to your camera without having to take the backpack completely off your body.

I bought this bag to be able to access my Sony 200-600mm G lens attached to my A7R4 body. (Access from the top) I also have a Sony 50mm GM attached to another A7R4 body for the quick side access and am additionally able to store a Sony 20-70mm G, Sony 70-200 G and a Sony 16-35 GM all in this bag.The bag is very well thought out and made of high quality, comfortable materials. I have taken this on many hikes and it distributes it’s weight very effetely.Highly recommend

I regularly carry a Canon R6 with a battery grip, an RF 28-70 F2 attached to it, and a Sigma EF 70-200 sport lens. These are big lenses and the camera with grip is a large setup. I still have room for extra lenses, batteries, a speed light with attachments, pocket RGB's, filters, straps, filters, and other loose items. Externally, I can carry my tripod, tube lights, and light stands and take all of this to one shoot just in case things change and I need to have extra items on hand. I couldn't do that with any bag I've had prior to this one. I can still add more externally if I really need to, but this is plenty to carry as it is and the bag is comfortable to wear with this much weight. The bag straps are padded and feel much better than any backpack I've used previously and that includes Manfrotto backpacks. I listed all the equipment in hopes that if you're someone who carries a lot of gear, you'll have an idea of what you can do. While I was searching for a larger bag, I didn't see much out there with a battery grip and large lenses. For some reason, bag manufacturers focus more on whether or not you can carry a water bottle and iPad instead of larger gear. Anyway, hope this is helpful. Best of luck!

Had a Pro Tactix from Lowepro… Excellent bag, but outgrew it and didn’t like that it didn’t stand. This bag does and only one side opens…which I prefer. It can also hold a thermos without attachments. Attachments are great, but anyone who has ever set up a ruck knows that balancing your gear can be a challenge. For photo and video gear…both bags are more than enough, but this one is better suited for me and is finished with more polish. Oh and it fits on International and Domestic planes except those prop planes….and that’s with a 15” Thinkpad.

3/5 rating for the misleading description. It says it will fit a 16" laptop. My laptop is 14.5" by 9 3/4" and the fit is so tight that it will either damage my laptop or else blow out the zipper in just a few days. I have to really push the laptop into the sleeve and then sort of work the zipper over it to get it to close. There is no way a 16" laptop will fit in this bag, unless maybe you put it on top of all the camera gear.Otherwise it seems like a nice quality bag. I'm returning this one for the 32L model.
