One could argue that a camera and a camera bag for hiking aren't necessary items among the equipment that constitutes the backcountry essentials. But we're not the argumentative types, and we understand that for many of you, documenting the transformative places you visit isn't only highly desirable; it may also be your meal ticket.

    Can you make a third size?

    I have both the regular and large sizes of the camera pod. I have used them on trips to Everest Base Camp, Kilimanjaro, and all points in between, including jungles and deserts. They have served me very well. My only request is a pod between the regular and large sizes. My larger camera does not quite fit in the regular pod, but the large pod is way too big for it and is quite inefficient when attached to my backpack. It swings around too much, to the point where I went back to my Peak Design clip for my larger camera. A medium pod would be great!

    Great! Tight fit with a Z8

    As mainly a mountain sport photograper (stephanrichardphotography.com) I use the pod (large) for all kinds of backcountry stuff. First pod I bought was a bad copy and fell apart on first use. Got a replacement from hyperlite very fast. Since then no complaints . Perfect for carrying your camera in various ways. I use it mainly with a Nikon Z8 (tight fit, but even with the 70-180 attached it fits).

    This pod is made for rough country.

    Attached the camera to my shoulder strap and walked 2 miles up this stream to a nice waterfall. Crawled over and under brush, Mountain Laurel and Rhododendron with no problems. The pod protected my camera and being on my shoulder strap made the camera easy to get . Very pleased with the camera pod.
