So ive been looking for a pack for around 7 month and I came across this one and looks like it would be perfect for me!

Anyone have one of these?? If you do what do you think about it?? any complaints?

Would i be able to carry a camelbak in the laptop holder? It does have a lap top pocket right?? when at the store i thought i seen one...Cant remember...if it does could I put a camelbak in it?? :)

Sorry for such a dumb post. I just dont want to get a jankidy bag!

Only thing I can say: What I'd do to find out, is google the bag, find out the dimensions of the laptop-compartment if it has one (diagonal inches and the find typical thickness of x" laptop gets you W*D*H), and then find the camelback that's the closest fit.

I have it and bought it after I watched some videos on Youtube. My canon 5D with added handle fits well. The laptop sleeve is large enough for a camel back. I like it very much.

Just FYI, the 3n1-30 does not come with the laptop compartment.. but the 3n1-33 does!
I can't comment on the 30 series as I don't own one but I do own a 3n1-20, its smaller brother. Is it a good bag? Yeah, it has it's positive qualities, but it also has its negatives as well.

Positives
- good build
- option to convert from sling to backpack.
- can hold a fair amount of gear
- easy to access gear when in sling

Negatives
- pretty uncomfortable on long hikes when loaded up with gear and in the backpack configuration. I found the bag to not sit right on my back no matter what I did to try to adjust the straps.
- tripod holder is usually extra

seen bags that are WAAAAAAAY better made..
definitely not a good build... it's mediocre at best.

it will serve it's purpose of holding camera gear... but quality or the lack thereof shows.
the straps are too thin for a loaded bag AND laptop... you will feel it on your shoulders.
the hidaway is nice but creates lumps on the back panel.
the webbing quality used is poor
the sewing is really poor.
the rain cover is just a couple of pieces of fabric sewn very loosely together...

it has some interesting ideas but the manufacturing clearly shows some cut corners.

strictly from an apparel manufacturing QC point of view... link in my sig shows my review of this bag.

unless you are getting it for a REAL bargain... put up a bit more and get something that much better made.

Check out Clik Elite's (external link) bags. I believe many of there bags have laptop and hydration bladder pockets.
