I have a Lowepro rucksack that takes my camera, 4 lenses, charger, filters, everything. on vacation, I sometimes partially gut it and keep my food in tupperware boxes within. it is pretty much infinitely adjustable inside.

I like it a great deal and it is very comfortable on my back.

Not sure which one they were referring to - Possibly the one I put the link to. There’s two sizes, the large is the best. It just fits within airline size limits for hand luggage. I researched it quite a bit and this Fastpack was the highest rated one I could find with 2 compartments and big enough but not too big.
I made the mistake in summer of putting drinks in with my camera. The cold gave it condensation, my camera is weather sealed but the extreme cold to very hot and humid still caused condensation inside I think and left some droplets on the sensor which dried leaving a mark. I didn’t realise until I got home and had to get a sensor cleaning kit and some of my footage you could see it. Hence one with two separate sections now.

Might be worth doing a price comparison on Jessops. I just had a look and they do a wide range. I noticed a cashback offer on a Lowepro.

I can’t find a model number anywhere on mine, but it cost £17 inc postage on EBay and was as described, in as new condition.
I certainly do not regret purchasing new. They are very pricey and there are numerous , clearly immaculate ones on EBay.

Please find some images attached..

This year I bought a better telephoto zoom lens (a Tamron 150-600 G2) for wildlife in Florida and needed a new bag. I wanted to be able to take my Nikon D500, the Tamron 150-600, Nikon 16-85, Nikon 70-300, flashgun, tablet and other accessories. It also had to comply with the TUI carry-on spec 55cm x 40cm x 20cm. After a lot of research I ended up with a Lowepro 300 AW Photo Classic Backpack which I found second hand in my local camea shop, the external dimensions are 29cm x 19cm x 43 cm
. Here's a link to the same bag on Amazon.
Took it to Florida in September this year and it was ideal for my needs. Hope this helps.

I had a Lowepro FastPack 300, loved it because I could fit my camera with large lens in it without dismantling it, and you can open a flap and slide the camera out without affecting anything else in the bag.

Than I got a 150-600mm lens and it doesn't fit in that bag, so I bought one of these
amazon/gp/product/...?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Really good quality and I can still fit by camera with huge lens attached in. Cheaper than Lowepro too, but the downside of it doesn't have a compartment for general stuff
