Vanguard VEO Select 49 BK

Vanguard VEO Select 49 BK: Carry your camera kit on the move

Carry a camera and several lenses through a full day of walking, with your kit protected and close at hand. The Vanguard VEO Select 49 BK is an 18-litre camera backpack that can also be carried as a shoulder bag, with space for a system camera, two to three lenses and accessories. That change of carrying style is a useful distinction: take it on your back for a hike, then switch to a shoulder bag for a city visit or a more compact travel setup. Inside, removable dividers let you arrange the padded camera compartment around the kit you’re bringing, rather than leaving the space fixed. Access from the rear, side or top means you can reach your equipment in different ways as your day unfolds. There’s also a padded compartment for a laptop up to 15 inches, so the bag can carry your camera kit alongside a computer for travel or a working day away from home. Water-repellent, scratch-resistant fabric handles everyday exposure, and the included rain cover adds a layer of protection when the weather turns. It’s a versatile way to keep a sizeable camera kit organised across different kinds of outings.

How it carries

• Backpack or shoulder bag: Change between the two carrying styles in seconds. That’s handy when you want backpack support for a longer walk and a shoulder bag format for a shorter stop.
• Adjustable camera interior: Removable dividers let you arrange the main compartment for the camera and lenses you’re taking. The soft lining and padded dividers help protect equipment from knocks and scratches inside the bag.
• Three access points: Reach your equipment through the rear, side or top opening. The side access offers a direct route to the camera, while the other openings provide alternatives for different packing arrangements.
• Tripod and bottle storage: Exterior side pockets accommodate a tripod, drink bottle or small gimbal. Keeping these items outside the camera compartment leaves the interior available for your imaging kit.
• Travel trolley strap: A strap on the back attaches the bag to a travel trolley. It also holds the shoulder straps out of the way when you’re carrying the bag as a shoulder bag.
• Breathable, padded contact points: Padding at the back and on the carrying straps adds comfort on longer walks. The backpack weighs 1.65 kg, before you pack your equipment.
• Weather-conscious materials: The polyester exterior is water-repellent and scratch-resistant, and a separate rain cover is included. Use the cover for added protection when you’re caught out in wet conditions.

What fits inside

The 18-litre interior is intended for a system camera with two to three lenses and related accessories. The laptop compartment accommodates a computer up to 15 inches, keeping it in a separate padded section from the camera kit. Removable dividers let you adapt the camera area to your chosen combination of equipment, while the external pockets can take a tripod, bottle or small gimbal.
