Product Information

Full details

The Thule Covert DSLR Camera Backpack is designed for photography enthusiasts who need a rugged, flexible solution for transitioning between gear-heavy shoots and daily commutes. Its 3-in-1 modular design offers unmatched versatility by incorporating a removable padded camera pod that functions independently as a sling, though the substantial 2.14 kg weight may be noticeable to users seeking an ultra-lightweight travel bag. The backpack combines dedicated storage for a 16-inch laptop and 11-inch tablet with intuitive multi-directional access, making it a reliable choice for professional photographers and travel-ready content creators.

FAQs

Can I carry a full-sized tripod?

Is this backpack waterproof?

The bag is constructed from durable, water-resistant nylon, but it is not fully submersible.

How much does the empty bag weigh?

The bag has a base weight of 2.14 kg.

Can I use the camera pod independently?

Yes, the removable pod is designed to be worn as a separate sling or shoulder bag.

Will it fit under an airplane seat?

At 32L, it may fit under most standard airline seats, though it depends on how much you have expanded the external pockets.

Are the internal dividers customizable?

Yes, the padded dividers feature a modular hook-and-loop system that can be reconfigured to suit different lens and camera combinations.

Troubleshooting

Camera pod doesn't fit securely in the bag

Ensure the internal divider system is fully unfolded and aligned to accommodate the pod's footprint before insertion.

Laptop compartment feels tight

Verify that your laptop does not exceed the 16-inch screen size specifications and remove any bulky hard-shell cases.

Zippers feel stiff

Clean any dust or debris from the zipper tracks and apply a specialized silicon-based lubricant if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup and Configuration

To configure the bag, begin by adjusting the internal padded dividers to match the dimensions of your specific camera bodies and lenses. Use the hook-and-loop fasteners to secure the dividers. If you prefer a non-camera layout, collapse the dividers against the interior walls to create a cavernous main compartment.

Compatibility

  • Tech: Fits laptops up to 16 inches and tablets up to 11 inches in dedicated, padded slots.
  • Support: Designed for universal brand compatibility with standard DSLR and mirrorless camera systems.

Care Instructions

  • Cleaning: Spot clean the nylon exterior using a soft brush or a damp cloth with mild soap. Avoid submerging the bag or using harsh chemical cleaners that may compromise the water-resistant properties of the material.
  • Maintenance: Ensure all zippers are clear of grit and debris to maintain smooth operation. Store the bag in a cool, dry place when not in use for extended periods.
