PGYTECH 2-in-1 Roller Camera Backpack, DSLR/SLR/Mirrorless Bag for Travel Photographers, Rolling Luggage with Tripod & Removable Modular & Rain Cover, Compatible with Canon, Nikon, Sony

Love this bag!
I love this carry on roller bag. The spinner wheels are wonderful and easy to remove and put back on as well as making maneuverability a breeze. I know it’s silly but one of the main reasons I wanted this bag was because of the spinner wheels. I have older luggage with two wheels and it is awkward at times maneuvering them around. The extending handle is very nice and easy to extend and lower. I am going on a trip to Iceland in October and was very concerned about the dimensions Iceland Air has issued on their sight about carry on luggage. The dimensions are very small compared to other airlines. 21.6 X 15.7 X 7.8. 7.8 inches thick.?! I don’t think you can find a bag that thin for camera gear or anything else for that matter. After reading many conflicting reviews about dimensions I decided to order the bag, figuring I would return it if it was too large. I had the opportunity to actually go to the airport we are flying out of. I found the Iceland Air check in area and they had a bin you could put your carry on bag in to see if it meets their carry on specifications. I took the wheels off and pushed on the center of the bag a little and it slid right down in the bin. It was tight as far as thickness but it went in. (I should have taken a picture but did not think to do so at the time unfortunately.) Well, come to find out I opened up the 10L space that expandson the bag after I got home because I thought it just felt weird. It would barely give at all when you pushed on it. Inside was packed a clear plastic packing pillow filled with air about 2-3 inches thick! They probably just put it in there for packing/shipping purposes. Once I took that out of the bag the depth of the bag is 8 – 8 1/2 inches easily if you squish on it, air poofs it out a bit, so no problem fitting it in the bin now as long as it is not overpacked. We are flying on Iceland Air and flying out of Detroit. The airport is Detroit Metro Airport. I am thrilled as I did not want to return this bag. I have a Nikon Z7ii, a 24-70, 70-200, a 20 mm lens that I will be taking with me and they fit in there fine with weight of the bag at 16.8 lbs. I will be adding a Z8 and a 14-24mm lens which, based on specs, will add 3.24 lbs which combined with the other gear is under the 22 lb limit so room for a few more things. My laptop put it at .6 lb over so may try to put it in there and see what happens but I do have a last minute switcheroo option that will work. A few people have mentioned the bag was too large for Delta and United but I looked at their specs and they were bigger than Iceland Air so not sure why they thought the bag was too big. It is 23 inches long with the wheels but you can take the wheels off, which I had to do, so you are down to about 21 inches. As long as you don’t overpack it as I said above the thickness of the bag is about 8-8 1/2 inches. When I put it in that bin at the airport it was over 9 inches thick and it still went in. It rolled very nicely through the airport and I simply lifted it up off the ground when using an escalator or the gliding walkways they have in airports. I did not want to scratch or ruin the wheels as I wasn’t sure if I was keeping the bag or not at that point. Another review said there is only one handle. There are actually three. There is a handle on top of the bag and also another handle on the side of the bag for lifting purposes as well as the extending handle when rolling the bag. I did not notice the handle on the side at first as it blended in with the bag, but it is there. It is sewn into the seam about half way down. They are made of sturdy fabric and suit the purpose for which they are intended. I don’t know that I will use it as a backpack very much but the straps are very nice and it is easy to fold the back of the bag down and secure. When it is in backpack mode you can also pull out the “wheel socks” which cover the back wheels to not dirty your clothes when carrying it on your back. Removing the wheels from the bag is quite easy. All you need to do is push the little lever and pull the wheels out. To put them back on you just push the lever again and I grasp the wheel in my other hand out over the edge of the bag, line up the straight edge of the post that inserts into the bag , push down and let go of the lever. Just practice a few times and you will find it very simple. The “tech pouch” is very nice as well. I experimented with what I could put in there. It will easily fit three spare batteries, three SSD’s with cords, passport, I.D., lip balm, keys, etc. There are also two deep pockets on each side of the bag that you can use for a water bottle, tripod, tech pouch or whatever you may need them for. Also a zippered pouch on the front of the bag you can put items in you need to get to fast. Passport, I.D., etc. The 10L expanding area will be very nice for a jacket, extra clothing, etc or some people have suggested using it as a space for a gimbal. I will not be using that on the plane as it would expand it too much but perhaps it would be fine in other airlines and also if you’re just using it to transport your gear without having to fly say for a weekend trip somewhere. I cannot say enough good about this roller bag. I really love this bag and intend on using it a lot for travel.**UPDATE:My trip to Iceland has now come and gone. I had no problem using this bag on my trip. I did have to take the wheels off so they could see if it would fit in their sizing bin at the airport but put them right back on. I left them on when boarding the plane and when I put it in the overhead storage. On the way home they checked the size of my bag at two check points and again with the wheels off it was fine. I just put the wheels back on and left them on once I got through the check points. I will say they were very strict on the weight of the bag, I think the weight limit is 22 pounds So I had a small camera back pack for my small carry on you can put under the seat in front of you. Any overflow went in there or my pockets. I brought my laptop computer from home on this trip but will be purchasing an iPad for any future trips. My computer weighs probably 2-4 lbs which I could be using for camera gear so laptop is staying home next time. I hope this helps if you are flying Iceland Air anytime in the future.

Best camera bag/roller case for videographer in 2025!
I’ve been needing a bag for many years now. This bag legit handled and consolidated all my gear into one bag.I typically film weddings with an old lowepro fastback 250 camera backpack, peak design everyday backpack 30L and the nanuk 935 hard case. Even with these three bags/hard case for my gear I still had miscellaneous gear scattered across these three. So when filming I’d forget which bag held which gear.I wanted a bag with wheels and backpack straps that held all the camera equipment, gimbal and laptop.I’m so glad I bought this bag before my next wedding shoot. I was finally able to consolidate all three Sony camera body and lenses into one bag. The laptop, portable charger and had room to fit an rs4 pro gimbal. I then turned my nanuk935 hard shell case into an audio gear luggage and cables.Instead of trying to lug a bunch of various bags and gimbal bag, etc. I’m now able to just keep everything across two bags or in most shoots if minimal just with this pgytech 2-1 roller backpack.The quality feels great and using as a backpack was perfect to bring up my stairs to my apartment. The roller wheels feels very smooth.Based on the size when I extend the bag to its 40L capacity it doesn’t look and may feel too big for a carry-on for airplanes. I knew that would be a potential con for this bag but for my needs, I wasn’t planning on flying with this bag as most of my shoots are local.If you don’t expand the measurements seem to be close to US airline carry-on at around 23” x 14.5” x 10” but looks to be slightly over. Official US Carry On is 22 x 14 x 9.When the bag is fully loaded, it feels heavy but weight evenly distributed and the roller makes moving the bag weightless. Material feels high quality and durable.I was going to buy the backpack last year and very glad I waited a bit and so excited to have purchased the roller/backpack.If you have a ton of gear and need a bag to consolidate everything. This is the bag for you! I know I’ll have this for many years to come and already paid off after my recent shoot.
