Backpack camera bag question

[jackirons]

Does anyone know where I can find a backpack that would hold a camera and two lenses and a few other accessories?

I've seen a ton of backpacks on amazon where the whole backpack holds cameras and lenses like this:

But I need a backpack that has half of the storage for camera stuff and the other half for other stuff.

There are multiple options from Lowepro. http://www.lowepro.com

How will you be using it? Long hikes, or just short walks/day hikes? For long hikes, I'd look at the Lowepro Dryzone Rover series. It has a good-sized lower compartment for cameras and lenses, and a generous upper portion to hold additional supplies (food, light clothing, water bladder, etc.). Also, the upper portion folds away from the bottom...this allows you to use the lid of the lower portion as a platform for changing lenses, taking notes, etc. The bottom portion is also waterproof and can be removed if need be. The tripod support is in the middle of the pack for better balance.

I just got back from four days at Havasu Canyon and was using a Tamrac Expedition 7...great pack, but really just made for camera gear; extremely little room for anything other than camera gear. For longer hikes in the heat, I had to attach several nalgene water bottles to the waist strap with carabiners, which made for some tough going in tight areas. The other photographer that I was with had the Dryzone Rover...needless to say, I'll be picking one of them up myself shortly.

For short walks or day hikes, Naneu Pro makes some nice packs that meet what you're looking for (take a look at the Naneu Pro Alpha model). I have an Alpha as well, and its a great pack with an excellent shoulder strap/harness system. The Alpha is their larger pack...there are a couple of smaller packs with the same arrangement.

Naneu Pro Alpha. Perfect for what you're describing.

Check out my review of the Kata Backpack I bought http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=503852

It fits yours needs perfectly and is much less expensive than other options. It is a great quality bag.

depends what lenses. If your lenses arent huge, go for the Lowepro Micro Trekker 100 or 200. 200 is bigger, so buy accordingly. Both are cheap.
