FAQs
Does the backpack get dirty easily?
No. The main fabric is canvas with a TPU waterproof coating, making it resistant to water and scratches while also easy to clean.
What kind of equipment can the backpack hold?
The 25L version is highly versatile.
- Horizontal storage: Top compartment fits a DJI RS3 Pro; bottom compartment fits up to 1 camera body + 3 lenses (including a 70–200mm or 100–400mm).
- Vertical storage: Fits up to 2 camera bodies + 4–5 lenses (including an RF 400mm f/2.8).
For specific gear compatibility, please contact customer service for confirmation.
What size laptop can the backpack hold?

- 20L: Fits a 15.6" laptop + 11" tablet.
- 25L: Fits laptops up to 17.3", including large gaming laptops.
Why do the exterior zippers feel less smooth?
The backpack uses YKK water-resistant zippers, which provide extra protection against water. This can create a slight resistance, so the zippers may not feel as smooth as standard zippers.
What’s the difference between the 20L and 20L Lite?
The 20L Lite and 16L use the same TPU + polyester material, while the 20L and 25L are made from TPU-coated canvas.
