Backpack, bag, or case for mavic pro?

[MavicPro]

I've been searching on Amazon for a good backpack for my Mavic pro. So far I've been looking at DSLR camera backpacks with customizable dividers. What are you guys going to use?

This without hydration bag TU

I purchased the Fly More bundle which includes its own bag, but I also own a Lowepro Slingshot Edge 250AW for my Panasonic G7, and definitely have room for both the Mavic and all its accessories as well.

I'm a big fan of the Mountainsmith Kit Cube. It allows me to carry my Micro 4/3 camera gear and soon my Mavic in any shoulder bag, backpack, etc safely:

I don't have it, but this Ape Case version should work the same but costs less:

I have a small camera sling bag I'll be using.

I just bought this for my Mavic. I will be using it as standalone storage, but then toss it in my main backpack while traveling.

The large size is 4.5" tall by 7.5" deep by 11.5" long. Perfect for the Mavic, Remote, Charger, and extra battery.

That's exactly what I bought. It's made by Vivitar and it was like $23. Will fit the Mavic, controller and several more items, and yet it's still very small.

Since the OP is looking for a backpack, I'll focus on that. It depends on what you are wanting to do. I plan on taking my Mavic out on my road bike so I want as light of a load as possible. I was going to order the Camelback Rogue which it tiny; holds a 2L reservoir for water. It would most likely hold the Mavic, controller, and phone and that's about it. But, I didn't get that so I can't confirm. I went one step larger and got the smallest Maleroads backpack. I believe it is called a 10L size. I just received that 2 days ago. It is also tiny as far as backpacks are concerned, but definitely plenty of room for the Mavic and accessories. Looks to be perfect in my opinion. I'd say if you don't want to go with one of these small form factor solutions in order to keep a light load then any backpack will do. I also order a couple neoprene pouches to provide a little cushion for the Mavic and controller. I will secure these neoprene pouches inside the backpack.

For the Controller...

For the Mavic...

I looked at the specs. The controller and Mavic should fit in these bags just great.

do you know the diameter of the last pouch? the Mavic is about 11.5 inches around. I wanted to get something like this for extra cushion.

Oh regarding a backpack, I just recently bought the North Face Inductor Charged backpack which is amazing. Has a built in batter pack for charging your phone, etc. but also has pockets for every gadget imaginable. I bought the Kelty case so I can separate the Mavic and just toss it in the backpack when I wan to travel with it. Expensive backpack but worth it for me.

 

[dcmusik22]

I have that same bag!!! how does it hold up????

Works great. Fits perfectly snug in that spot. I carry the charger in the side pocket. I took it around yesterday and it didn't shuffle around at all.

Sure. If you click the link and read the product description it says it has a 4.5" diameter. The Mavic is 3.3" x 3.3" which means it's about 4.6" on the diagonal measurement at its widest point. I think the front feet cause the Mavic's measurement to be a little wider that most of the rest of the body. The Mavic has slightly rounded edges so I'm just guessing this neoprene pouch will be slightly loose fitting which will make it easier to get out. Oh, and the length of the pouch is 8.5". The Mavic is 7.75". So that should be perfect. Just enough room to snug up the drawstring.

I went with the Lowepro Tahoe BP 150. Can't wait to get my Mavic.

 

[bbkett]

I'm planning on putting mine in my f-stop Kenti bag. My a6000 and lenses takes up one side, but the other side has been empty. Hopefully soon it will be filled...

They have a 16 or 22 litre version. If you get the 2015 version is about £50 or £80 for the 2016 version.
