Camera Backpack Re-Review – Ortlieb Atrack 45L Waterproof Backpack

A while back, Matt made a video about a new waterproof backpack from Ortlieb that he was trying out as an alternative to buying another expensive photography backpack. He wondered if the Ortlieb Atrack 45L could strike the right balance between waterproofness, carrying comfort and accessibility for his outdoor photography adventures.

The Ortlieb Atrack wasn't designed as a photography backpack per se, but it seemed like it just might work as an alternative to camera backpacks from brands like: Fstop, LowePro, Mindshift, Atlas and Shimoda – which all seemed a bit over-priced for what they were. Well, he's been using the Atrack 45L on and off for over two years now and here's the verdict in case you're curious.

Check out this in-depth follow-up video to hear whether Matt would recommend the Ortlieb Atrack 45L to other outdoor photographers looking for an economical waterproof  backpack to haul around their precious photography gear.
