We will be introducing our smallest, lightest backpacks, the Perception™ series. Designed specifically for mirrorless systems, the Perception series will become the “go-to” pack for photographers looking to add flexibility to their workflow while using a smaller system along with a laptop and tablet. It’s an all-new and advantageous way to carry smaller camera systems and is ideal for travel and city walk-arounds.
The Perception series comes in two colors, black and taupe, and in three sizes. The smallest size, the Perception Tablet™, accommodates a mirrorless system and iPad Mini. The largest size, the Perception Pro™, holds a 15” laptop, plus a 10” tablet (iPad), plus one mirrorless body or small DSLR with a small to medium zoom attached (lens hood reversed), plus four to five more lenses or a large GoPro kit.
