Vanguard Alta Sky 42 Professional Camera Backpack for DSLR or Mirrorless Camera (16.6 Liters, Gray)

The Vanguard ALTA SKY 42 Backpack in Gray is designed to carry a mirrorless camera with up to a 600mm lens attached (or a DSLR camera with a smaller lens), and an additional 4 lenses - all protected in the sturdy, well-padded material for which the Alta Sky series is known. The interior is a light, bright orange that allows you to clearly see the contents of the bag, even in low-light conditions. The Alta Sky 42 can also carry a tripod in the center for optimal balance, with a tuck-away tripod foot if needed. 
Full and Quick Access to Kept items
It comes with a removable sleeve that is crafted to offer additional protection to a long lens, or to carry a spotting scope securely. You can get full access to your gear through the rear of the backpack, with quick top access to your chosen camera and lens combo. The secure rear compartment includes a pouch that can carry up to a 12.9-inch tablet, while on the front is a pocket for accessories such as cables and SD cards, with expandable neoprene pockets on either side for water bottles and more. 
Tough and Weatherproof Design 
Constructed to be tough and weatherproof with total-coverage rain cover, it is designed to protect your valuable gear in the most challenging conditions. An advanced ergonomic back and harness system features a well-padded, breathable back, easy-adjust shoulder straps that perfectly contour to your back and torso, and an adjustable sternum strap and waist belt that can be folded away when not needed.
