Does anyone have experience with the NYA fjord 36 backpack? https://www.nya-evo.com/products/fjord-36-with-rci-unit  Looks like it would be a nice active (hike/bike) bag for the sl3 with the zoom attached and a spare lens or two. 
 

Thanks!

I have it, really a great backpack. So far, I have used it only on day hikes and have not traveled with it.

 

Mine is equipped with medium RCI, which fits SL2, two APO primes, and three zooms. Still some space left in the main compartment for other gear, and other spaces in the backpack can be utilized for a bit of snacks and extra clothing. 

 

I like that the material used for the outer shell is recycled from old fishing nets.

 

if you have any questions, let me know

Thanks Filip! I have been using one of two EVOC bags for bikepacking, and I am not in love with them, room for the camera, but not much as far as lenses go, I was looking for the next size up. The NYA looks neat, I could get the 36 and if I need a bigger bag I could reuse the insert, I think. I try to put all the heavy stuff on the bike, so just water and a layer or two plus camera in the bag on these trips. 

 

Would you mind showing a pic of the camera in the bag? If you do not have time, no worries at all. 

 

Cheers,

Thanks both. I ordered a 36 and medium insert today. Now to plan an adventure for the weekend.
