This whole video was color graded using these Adventure LUTs: geni.us/BqN1X

Great looking bag, and I like that tan color. Thanks for sharing.

Oh I've never seen you use this before, I didn't know you used it for a long time. Looks like a nice backpack and it's so amazing to see so many influencers promoting it this week.

Backed this, glad I chose the 25L. This is almost exactly what I’ve been hoping for in a camera backpack.

Hey there 👋🏻 I have a question that is currently concerning me. Can I use a polarised filter using S-Log 3 on recording? Or it would affect the video if I use a LUT? I would appreciate your feedback . Thanks

Thank you for the video. I now have the 25L version of the Urban Explorer and trying to figure out how to set it up. Any chance you could list the specific camera bodies, lenses, and tripod you show in 5he video to help judge what fits? Take care.

This is exactly what I’ve been looking for , for my international travel trips and wanting to take my gear

Which camera, drone and lens, etc are you putting in the core unit from video ? That Will help me if my gear will fit in 25L with : - sony a7rv or a7iv - 70-200 gm 2 - 24-70 gm 2 - 16-35 gm 2 - dji mavic 3 classic - dji osmo action 4 Or 30l is more suitable ?

Nicely done. I've been looking for a smaller, lighter pack so I'm not tempted too carry to much while hiking/walking. This bag was well-timed. Thank you, Jeven.

The bag is great. I’m going to be using this or the Action x40 when I’m out. Just depends on what I’m filming and how much I need to carry

Can you fit a Nikon Z9 body in the Shimoda URBAN EXPLORE 30L version, when you have a laptop in the bag, too?

Hi Javen! Great review. I have a question though, can the 25 or 30L fit a thick laptop in an EVA case on the back or front laptop compartment? Mine is an ASUS TUF 15.6 gaming laptop at 3cm Thickness that I put in an EVA case for additional protection with 4.5cm thickness when the laptop is inside. I'm just curious because most of my camera bags will fit my laptop but with the Hardshell EVA case then it wont fit anymore. I'm a casual gamer and have mirrorless camera gears and a small drone when I travel. Laptop EVA case with Laptop inside Dimensions are: Length 28cm x Thickness 4.5cm x Height 49cm. Hope you can answer. Thank you!

dang this seems perfect

I already bought my favorite EDC bag now I need this bad boy for my camera gear that 25L in that anthracite color is my favorite

Can you insert a 25-70 lens vertically? Description says internal depth is 16cm deep but I keep seeing lenses being placed on the side. Thank you.

Omg it’s so cool to see your channel together with “1M” 🤩🎉

Thank You!!

Is it deep enough to fit my a7r3 with the battery grip on?

Can you have bottle/tripod in the side, and still open flap to get into it on the go?

I really like my wandrd bad but this had a few improvements with a few trade offs. I like how the wandrd prvke lite lets me roll the top open to fit a rain shell jacket into it or whatever else. But having two slightly larger pockets on each side for water bottle or tripods is nice. The wandrd has quicker access to get your camera out. But this bag has a better design with the straps not attached to the part of the bag that your back touches. The wandrd zippers hold the entire load…

I have shimoda explorer v2 and rollerbag. I think it's great for landscape or wildlife photographer. However, when it is for urban camerabag , I think I have many other options to consider

We just backed this kickstarter and get that 25L Boa! super excited about it

Just a thought - you could have pointed out up front that this was only a Kickstarter offering and would not be delivered until next February; anyway, i love your channel and after watching this post a few times decided join the campaign for this terrific backpack, even though I will need to wait until February.

Is it heavy and does it get dirty

Great video, Jeven. I was looking at the kickstarter page, but could not find any size details for any of the Urban explores ... I'm just short of 170 cm in hieght , and would think the 25 would be fine, right ?

@@JevenDovey i own the x30 and x50 action (v1) and eventhough i have to fork over 100$ for shipping (plus customs taxes -.- ) to switzerland i gladly pay that because i know what i will get. The only real difficulty is to guess if i need the 25 or 20 as i want a light daypack when i go on a citytrip with camera 1-2 lenses and maybe a jacket stored plus water... Looking at the sizes they give, the differences between the 20 and 25 are so small that i basically would need them in my hand to decide :D - ok and also wich color to take :D

Leaning towards the 25L but have a massive Sony 200 - 600mm lens and am wondering if it’ll fit in the 25L. Would prefer not to go with the 30L and have a massive bag to lug around 🤔

@@JevenDovey Is it actually smaller? Looking at outside dimensions the new Urban Explore 20 is 25.38L vs Explore 25v2 at 21.34L Kinda hard to tell as Shimoda model# doesn't match their actual size in (L) Example: Shimoda's Action X70 HD, you think is 70L, but dimensions are actually 42L (31x59x23). If you add 7L roll top expansion making it 49L it is still far from 70L

Shimoda's are great! I have the X70. inside i carry a rigged out BMPCC6K. I dont use the monitor any more and use NPF batteries. Also a drone and 3 days of clothes in a compression cube I store up top and the top is still folded down so they dont make me check my bag.
