Music photographers know all about pit bags and non-pit bags. In fact, illuminoise. even touched on the topic a bit in our review of the Vanguard Quovio 41. Some bags are just too big for active pit use and illuminoise. came to the conclusion, as do many other music photographers, that backpacks are not approved for pit [...]
Vanguard Quovio 41 – Review

ThinkTank StreetWalker HardDrive Photo Backpack Review
Backpacks are usually not my first choice for carrying my gear around, and for good reason. There is really no fast way to access my camera and lenses.
