Waiting for the new iteration of the Elelemnt backpack fixing/improving some drawbacks like the narrow and not very puffy straps, the buckles getting in the way of the main pocket zippers and lack of room for a 17" laptop any time soon, I can only hope 😁
Hi, if you require the tripod horizontally you always have the option to put it on top and 'burrito' it with the rolltop and put the rolltop strap over. This has the advantage that you do not have to set the backpack down having the tripod on the floor each time.
@@compagnonbags can you do another demo of the backpack? and show the black version, and what it look like wearing it, and different setups? thanks. I think I will purchase this one but want to see preview first.
Hello, I'm considering buying the 20L version of the Element for use with my Mamiya 7, the narrowest dimension is ~13cm (with the tripod plate I keep permanently attached) - will this fit through the side access panel? Thank you!
Hi, the Element backpack 20L is a more compact version of the 30L model so the quick access opening is also smaller. The access is about 12cm x ~15-16cm. If you need a larger opening or your body height is over 175cm we'd recommend the 30L option.
hey, I purchase your first kickstarter backpacks.( The Explorer). I even purchased two.They were very well made. I still use it now. I bought the large and the small. the only problem I had was I felt the shoulder straps on the smaller bag were a little small and a little uncomfortable.. I wished it had the same shoulder straps like the larger bag(I thought they were perfect). Are the straps on this version closer to the larger bag or small?
Hi, there is always a height and back length recommendation for our ergonomic bags. The Element 20L is not just for smaller kits but also for smaller users with shorter, more slender build. A user of 1.8m+ height will fall beyond the fit recommendation and will require the 30L model for best fit. However, the straps on both Element backpack models are the same width because shape, cushioning and manufacturing has been improved significantly compared to the simpler Explorer series so the overall comfort is a lot higher.
If you need a dedicated passthrough for travelling, the Adapt backpack 25L is the right product. The Element Line is focused on outdoor performance & ergonomics
Ich habe den großen Element Rucksack und bin grundsätzlich sehr zufrieden. Allerdings bin ich erstaunt, dass scheinbar an zwei Punkten gar nicht gearbeitet wurde. 1. Die Fächer für Flasche/Stativ: Die sind gut nutzbar wenn der Rucksack leer ist aber sobald Equipment drin ist gibt der Rucksack nach innen nicht mehr nach und das Fach ist wenig bis gar nicht flexibel. Somit empfinde ich es immer als Krampf dort eine Flasche unter zu bringen. 2. Die Kletttaschen am Rückenteil innen: Die Flexibilität dieser Taschen klingt zunächst nach einem Feature aber in der Realität nutzt man (oder ich zumindest) die Tasche doch nur an der gleichen Stelle, weil es sonst keinen Sinn macht. Den SD-Card Halter auf der Innenseite des Schnellzugriffs anzubringen, hat bei mir dazu geführt, dass ich beim herausnehmen der Kamera die Karten verloren habe. Also nicht nutzbar aus meiner Sicht. Dennoch finde ich es gut, dass Compagnon nun auch eigene IGUs anbietet. Frage: Passt die 10l IGU auch in den Element 30l und lässt sich irgendwie befestigen? Die normalen Klett-Devider haben sich oft gelöst wenn ich im Rolltop ein wenig gestopft habe. Eine etwas stabilere Option mit IGU wäre mir ganz recht. Ich hoffe das kam jetzt nicht zu kritisch rüber ;-) Ihr macht tolle Produkte, weiter so! Grüße Dennis

I also wish it had some hidden straps underneath the backpack to hold the tripod horizontally for better balance of weight.

Hello, I am in China. If I purchase from the official website, can you ship it directly to me?
What is the depth of the main camera compartment? What length of lens can fit stored vertically? What is the 30l depth in comparison?
Hi, you can find all the measurements (external and internal) on the product pages.

what is the weight of the waistbelt?
Hi, it is about 180grams.
Hi, I have plan to buy the Element backpack 30L. Is it possible to using side access with Canon EOS-R3 ?? Please let me know :)
Hi it will fit with the 30L, not with the 20L. Please know that it will be a tight fit as the camera body has such bulky dimensions.

@@compagnonbags thanks for the reply. keep making great stuff. I enjoy all your gear
Can I carry a Fujinon xf-150-600 (315 mm)?
Hi, it should fit. The measurements of the bag are on the site, compare to your lens/camera combo to see if it will add up when the lens is mounted.
can you attach the Peak Design capture clip on the strap?
Hi, we've seen that being done by several customers so we're guessing it does work.
does this bag have a juggage passthrough?

kann man den hüftgurt abmachen?
Natürlich. Ist bei allen Element backpacks möglich.

unter einem anderen Video habe ich gelesen: die IGUs passen nicht in die element Serie, da es eine andere Produktlinie ist
