 Is this bag just cinches down into a much smaller footprint, because there's a lot of bags out there? It'S a 40 60 liter pack, whatever it is, you might only have 15 or 20 liters in the bag or maybe only you're, only using a quarter of its carry capacity, but the footprint of the bag or main is the same so that be able to have A pack that can really kind of switch squish down into a smaller footprint to me is everything, that's a very, very good quality, so just to jump right into it. Of course, this is the the yellow version. This is the also the tall version it comes in a regular size and I'm 6 foot 2, so that the tall version works perfect for me and just right on the outside, you have these straps up here, so you can strap really any additional items. You would like to it there's also a pocket whoops right here on the front

 Alice is a great job with the the comfortable comfort ability of their harness system and their waist belt, and you might be noticing something no words the waist belt with this. What'S what is fantastic Atlas gives you the option that you can take it on or off. It'S up to you and they make great West waist belts very meaty. There'S a lot of material here, a lot of a lot of substance and durability, so they're very good at the waist belts

 I just want to talk about this real quick on the the back panel. It'S kind of got like a rib design and it is very comfortable and it's got like kind of exaggerated lumbar area right here, which makes carrying this bag very comfortable and in the waist belt, actually tucks right back in here. Let me actually show you on the other bag, so they sent me to. This is a athlete pack and black, but what's different is this one is the regular version

 You have another little stretchy area. Here goes all the way to the bottom: a couple zipper pockets here you could put SD cards or batteries or remote shutters or whatever you like there and that's the the camera compartment.

Longer than 10 days for work - BS Errant + Small Roller if flying / Duffel if driving.  

1-2 Days - sort of between bags right now waiting for things to come in but was using a MR x Carryology Unicorn or GR1 26L.  

What’s Your Current Bag Line-Up?

 It'S not like the foam that you would use for your backpack uh straps, it's like a very thick foam, and so they they sent me these, and i actually was able to do the install myself to upgrade this original backpack to be capable of handling a lot More weight and to just improve the frame and that's cool, i think it's important to reuse. You know products like this and to turn them into more functional, updated products when we can so we don't just throw out perfectly viable and useful backpacks and other type of hiking this one. So that's it! That'S my review of the bag. I think it's a great backpack, i i think it's um worth checking these out

 And then here i've got a long, a large version of a telephoto a little bit longer than your traditional 70 to 200, but essentially the the same grouping of lenses all right. So i want to take you inside of the backpack a little bit now. This is the main chamber: we've obviously opened up the backpack flap. This is fairly thin

 This bag is a 20 liter backpack. It is really a hiking backpack that has a camera core built in, and that is exactly what i was looking for and why was that? What i was looking for? Well, i had been living with the peak design bag and you can see a review on my channel of that bag for uh two years and i like that bag. I think it's very functional, but i was taking it hiking and i was taking it outside or more often i was ditching it and just throwing my camera into my hiking backpack, and that was not a good situation and the reason why was the lack of padding And comfort overall, on that peak design bag, i don't actually think i want anything different when i'm shooting in the city. I know that often we're driving to a location, we're taking pictures or we're taking

. So it's a pretty big backpack, but this is the backpack that i've used for like five or six years. It'S so comfortable! You throw this thing on and you can walk for miles and you don't even feel the weight and why is it so comfortable? That'S the real question that we want to answer and we want to see these attributes in the bags that we choose for camera gear, so first thing comfortable, straps, obviously right, but the nice padding and the good form and the heavy duty foam. These are important factors in creating a comfortable, strap

What makes a camera bag COMFORTABLE? How does the Atlas Athlete size up?

 If you want stuff that needs to stay absolutely dry, this is a well protected area for your important documents and things like that. This bag has been incredibly comfortable. The most comfortable backpack I've ever had that's also a camera bag and, as you can see, this bag expands to infinity. I haven't actually reached a point where this bag is full, where it's overfilled and where it's been too heavy to carry or anything like that

 I spend about 300 days each year, traveling on the road and I'm always looking to for ways to optimize my processes. My workflows and my equipment, I want light equipment, that's as capable as possible. I want it to be as small as possible, so I can store as much of it as possible as I go along on my trips and it needs to be as versatile as possible, and the same goes for my camera bags. I want a backpack that I can go hiking on for multi days that can fit additional equipment, not just camera equipment

Star together, alright, okay, hey everyone. My name is Chris and today I'm reviewing the athlete pack by athelets backpacks [ Applause, ], [, Music ]. I spend about 300 days each year, traveling on the road and I'm always looking to for ways to optimize my processes. My workflows and my equipment, I want light equipment, that's as capable as possible

 It opens on the back and you get full access to the whole bag here in the back, and it has a little special feature called the origami compartment here, which basically allows you to turn some storage space into camera space or, like I said, storage space, and You have more volume for other stuff in the back. It'S it's very shallow, I'm an Olympus ambassador and I shoot with Olympus glass, of course, which is small lenses and they fit in perfectly. But if you have slightly bigger lenses, you'll end up putting them in sideways. Like this, I know that for future versions of this backpack there will be it'll, be slightly deeper and then normal full-frame lenses will also fit in upright or the general full frame lens will fit in upright

The Ultimate Photography Backpack - Atlas Athlete Pack Review

 They're not just smaller and larger versions of the exact same pack. There are some differences. this one has a laptop compartment on the front. This one has it inside

 They both feature this top flap drawstring top system and then they both have space down in front of the box that actually holds the camera gear and so with compression straps on the sides. Again, this is true for both models. You can stuff the pack as full as you need to and then cinch them down, throw a tripod on the side, and and make it work. Of course, made out of, you know, ripstop nylon

 Back panels are very similar with this sort of ribbed material. It's very comfortable. The biggest thing that I like about the the suspension system here is the waist belt. Now a lot of packs have waist belts

 just like any other outdoor pack you'd expect. They have the same suspension system for the shoulder harnesses here which is great. They both feature internal metal frames which again standard for hiking packs to help distribute the load of the pack down onto your hips rather than on your shoulders. They have or this one has an adjustable velcro thing for adjusting depending on your your torso height which is great can you get a good fit

Atlas Athlete Camera Pack Review: An Adventure Camera Bag to Rival the Best

dpreview.com

When you're riding, you don't want to think about your pack, and the Syncro 20 takes the weight off your shoulders so you won’t. Spacious with plenty of pockets, you can carry all the layers, tools, and food you need for a long day in the saddle. Toss your worries aside about your pack hopping all over the place because the harness on this pack is shaped like wings—meaning the shoulder straps assume the natural curve your body does when you’re reaching for your handlebars. So, your pack stays super stable, even over the most technical terrain. A tensioned mesh AirSpeed backpanel provides superior ventilation and a removable hi-vis raincover ensures your gear doesn’t get drenched. Stay hydrated no matter how long you ride with an included 2.5-liter reservoir.

The water bottle compression straps are pretty poorly implemented too. Just a bit in the way and not very helpful. 

It has compression straps on the top with clips that dig into your back because they’ve put them on the back panel instead of on the front. They’re also always in the way of opening and closing both pockets. It’s like they’ve angled them on purpose to get in the way. Some minimal design changes would make all the difference

It feels very cheap. The straps and fittings feel… I guess cheap is the best way to put it. I know there’s a lifetime guarantee but it still feels like things might break. They’re all very small and fiddly

So I just returned my Syncro 12…

  Its just too bulky to easily handle in such a manner.  Cleaning and drying are a royal P.I.T

. you might as well make it functional - and at 40mm in thickness, the Syncros 20 did that very well).  No matter what I tried - this thing was all over the place on my back, as stated above on any section of trail other than when I was climbing (which is the single place where this pack shines! the sensation of having anything on your back vanishes completely).

Only thing it does well - Big Loads

I have been looking at Osprey bags myself for bike commuting, and narrowed down options to the Radial and the Syncro 20. The Radial is marketed as a 26L bag with ability to expand to 34L, but it looks massive in the pictures and video reviews I’ve seen online. I’m leaning towards the Syncro now, but this post on sizing issue worries me about it’s carrying capacity

For reference I commute with a Dell XPS13, chargers and cables, a change of clothes and towels

Hi all,

I just wanted to warn people about an interesting experience I just had with Osprey. I had ordered the Osprey Daylite Travel Tote Pack because it appeared to be just the right size. The specs on the website put it at 16.93H X 14.96W X 8.27D IN. This seemed pretty perfect for me, and the weight seemed right for the size. 

Except there was a problem. When I received the bag it was only 16 H X 10 W X 8 D IN. It was “missing” almost 5 inches off the width!  In fact, it was smaller than my old Patagonia Ultralight Travel Tote Pack!  I called customer service to see what was going on. 

According to customer service, the width of the bag was measured when the bag was smashed flat. This included part of the side panels. I kid you not.  Worse, they did not use the depth of the bag when smashed flat (about 1-1/2 in). Instead they used the depth of the bag when the bag was filled. In short, they used the side panels for **both** the width and the depth of the bag. They mixed and matched measuring techniques to make the bag size appear larger than it was. 

This makes it impossible to estimate bag sizing. And we already know that the volume estimates are never accurate. 

Needless to say, I was pretty frustrated. I expect bag sizing to be some approximation of the bag dimensions when filled. 

Either measure it flat, or measure it full, but don’t mix and match!

Obviously the people doing the measuring aren’t the bag designers or the engineers.

Warning about Osprey bag sizing (highly deceptive sizing)

 I feel like soft items like jackets or layers are the only items that can truly take advantage of the Liter size of this pack. I have to revert to my previous pack, the Maxpedition Sitka 15L which fits everything even at 15L. I was hoping to switch to Osprey as I have their Kestrel 48L for backpacking and absolutely love it to be loyal to the brand but will unfortunately have to wait.

I was initially excited to use it as kind of the everyday commute and hiking back as it seemed versatile. Unfortunately, as I loaded the bag with my usual items for the day for the bike commute, that's where this bag began to show its flaws. To give perspective, my usual day to day commuting items include a 16oz coffee hydroflask, 24oz water hydroflask, 2 small packaged meals, 1 leather notebook, a GORE Biking Jacket, 1 3ft bike cable lock, and miscellaneous pens and phone charger. A lot of items but at 20L, this bag should hold all of the contents easily but it sadly does not

Disappointing

 I've added a camera clip to get additional space for the main compartment and thought about a mod to add trekking pole attachments similar to the Manta as the Syncro 20 just the right amount of capacity for my day treks. In final, this pack has redeeming qualities as I've now begun to use it more often but it isn't perfect, however, it is a comfortable pack I would recommend for trail and cycling.

 To give an idea what I was able to pack, I have uploaded a picture of what I brought during my treks. The single zipper for the front organization pocket is still a minor inconvenience but not a showstopper and I also would've preferred a buckle for the chest strap rather than magnetic.
