The Lab: EVOC CP 26L Camera Backpack Long Term Review
Professional camera equipment is pricey – so as a riding photographer, you naturally want to make sure that your equipment is safely packed away as you nail it along trails to find the find the ideal location to snap the pros.
The EVOC CP 26l fits the bill. It provides the necessary protection for your fragile technology and is a great, comfy fit for those long working days. Cleverly divided compartments and the easy side access have been a blessing for Christoph, who has relied on this bag for over eighteen months. Alongside a camera and a ton of accessories and flashes, the CP26l also has enough space for a raincoat, food, and drink. “It’s a huge advantage, particularly when I’m out on long rides in the mountains,” says Christoph.
With countless straps, he can also attach various other bits of equipment. The majority of the seams and zips have survived the toils of his work, but the strips of materials that are the zip handles have ripped fairly frequently. It’s a just a minor complaint, and purely down to aesthetics. Overall, the backpack has been a massive hit thanks to its versatility and robust manufacturing.
