Tamrac Adventure 7 backpack-thoughts

Probably a bit too late now as I have only just found this site and ordered the above yestaerday!

am eagerly waiting for its arrival but wondered if anyone has any thoughts on the bag in general? Bought it mainly to carry camera/lens in and also a bit of personal stuff when I go walking. It seemed like a good option but will wait and see what its like.

On the good side it was a very good price- £35.98 including delivery which is the cheapest I have seen it.

That certainly seems to be a very good price. I've had no experience of this particular model, but I would say that it's very easy to end up lugging a lot of stuff around that you don't need. Think about the kinds of things you NEED to take with you, leave the rest at home. Just because you have a bag that can carry your entire collection of photographic equipment, doesn't mean you have to bring it with you.

Hi happy chick, I have the Tamrac Expedition 8, they are great bags loads of room, but like yelvertoft says be careful you tend to take all your gear with you, and you will not need it all. The bag is ok if you are going away, but you will find that like me i use a smaller LowePro on a daily basis, just to take what you need.
