Richard Sibley reviews Domke's first foray into the world of backpacks
Domke Camera Backpack

THE DOMKE Camera Backpack departs from the company's usual shoulder bags, but the core values of using high-quality materials and American manufacture remain. Measuring 48 x 33 x 23cm, it provides a large storage volume whilst weighing just 1.37kg. It's made from Cordura fabric, which is lightweight but rugged and water-resistant; when I threw a cup of water over it, the water beaded and rolled off. But there are no promises about how it would perform with a more severe downpour. Neither of the bag's two zips is sealed for waterproofing, though the main one is covered with a fabric flap. Still, Domke is confident enough that no additional rain cover is included.
