## Overview

The Vanguard ALTA SKY 68 is a premium 36L camera rucksack engineered for professional photographers who demand seamless transport of a pro DSLR or mirrorless with an 800mm lens attached, plus up to 7 additional lenses and a 16" laptop. Featuring a dual-compartment design with ergonomic airflow back system, multi-access points, bright interior for quick gear identification, and robust weather-resistant materials, it delivers unmatched comfort and protection for extended outdoor shoots and treks.

## Description

The ALTA SKY 68 is a new style backpack for photographers who are planning a longer trek where they need their large telephoto lens to get closer to that elusive subject, but want the versatility to be able to change lenses to take advantage of photo opportunities as they come along, whether it be a spectacular landscape or a stunning macro opportunity.Until now, the choice has been to carry their telephoto lens and leave the rest of the kit at home (such as in an Alta Sky 66), or to take a wider bag that can take the additional lenses, but means that the body needs to be detached from the telephoto lens in transit, and setup on site. The Alta Sky 68 gets around this with two separate sections in the main compartment. One half of the main compartment is designed to fit a Pro DSLR or Mirrorless body attached to a 600mm (f/4.0) lens, or even some 800mm (f/5.6) lenses. An adjustable thick, sturdy and well-padded cradle supports the camera body from below and secures the large lens in position, while making sure it is well protected all around the delicate connection point. The other half of the main compartment is designed to hold up to 7 additional lenses, or it can be customised to carry the personal kit you need for a longer trek. A full front opening flap ensures easy top access to the camera/telephoto lens, and the top half of the compartment with the additional lenses, while the lower half of each compartment can be accessed from the back. The rear access also includes a pouch for a 16" laptop. The interior is a light, bright orange that allows you to clearly see the contents of the bag, even in low light conditions. Or in the event of an emergency on your terk, can help you attract attention by making you more visible. A full sized tripod can be carried centrally for optimal balance, using the tripod foot pocket and adjustable straps to hold it tightly for maximum comfort on the move. Alternatively a tripod or monopod can be carried in the expanding side pocket, or it can be used to carry a water bottle. Organise all other gear and personal essentials such as an 11" tablet, memory cards, cables, batteries, charger and smartphone, exactly where you need them Designed to carry the heaviest loads for extended periods of time, we set the bar for comfortable carrying at a new high. Our advanced ergonomic back and harness system is fully adjustable and features a well-padded breathable 3D back, uniquely shaped easy height adjusting shoulder straps that perfectly contour to your back and torso, adjustable sternum strap and well-padded supporting waist belt. All these join together to promise a ‘never-tire’ user experience! For shorter trips, there is also a detachable shoulder strap on the side that allows you to choose the best way to carry it. The Alta Sky 68 enjoys additional encompassing protection features, such as our second-to-none quality, materials and bag construction, and our grab-and-go sturdy carrying handle that also comes in handy when retrieving the backpack from the car boot, as well as a our total coverage rain cover.

Review: Very well though out bag. - It is very rare that an item arrives that is impressive beyond what you expect. The Alta Sky 66 is one of those rare items. It fits my Sony A7 with attached Sony FE 200-600 lens with lens hood attached comfortably. There is even cushioning in the base which will wrap around the lens hood to keep it stable The materials it is made from appear good quality. It has lots of pockets for bits and pieces, none of them large but for me this bag is for transporting this camera and lens combo plus a tripod and possibly a monopod as well. There are all the straps and attachments I need to do this. You can tell that whoever designed this bag put a lot of thought into it which I appreciate. I have yet to carry it any distance but I have adjusted the shoulder harness and waist strap to fit and they are well padded and appear up to the job.
Review: Vanguard sky 45D camera rugsack - Delivery was quick and item as expected. Partitioning fits my camera and lenses with some space to spare. Gopro and casing, fits nicely in the bottom, section of the rugsack. The shoulder straps are comfortable to wear. Obviously, with all good things, there are some challenges, namely, accessing your ipad or extra lenses, etc, is awkward, as the shoulder straps have to be repositioned to allow for any unhindered access. In hindsight, the hindered access to the general storage area, does offer extra security for any of your gear being stored, especially when your are trekking. 2ndly, it is a pity that no rain cover is included as the UK does not provide enough dry weather, to warrant the exclusion of the extra protection. In general, the Alta Sky 45D is well built, fits comfortably and is a versatile camera rugsack for short daily trips.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Bag... Once you figure it out.
*by A***H on 11 March 2021*

Tired of hauling around my daily camera bag with all my lenses when I knew I was only going to be taking shots of wildlife I decided a dedicated bag was the way to go. I looked at Lowepro, Manfrotto as well as others but didn’t see any that grabbed me. I came across the Vanguard Alta 66 and I liked the looks and I knew from fellow photographers the brand is good. So I took a chance. Price - The first thing that grabbed me was for what the bag offers comparatively to the competition at the lower price point it is relatively good value for money, especially when combined with the Amazon offer to spread the payment over 5 months with Prime next day delivery. Packaging - the packaging is very simple, a clear bag protecting from scuffs in transit, an attached information tag, all inside a suitably sized bog that while bigger than the item is not overly so as can be the case with certain products. Design - The bag stands about a metre tall, is sleek in appearance, maintaining a minimalist look and not shouting photography gear. The outer materials are what feel like an easy wipe woven fabric that feels very robust and will wear well. The base has a further Cordura type fabric that again is easy wipe, adds extra protection to scuffs, water repellent properties and is reinforced is a stitched fabric strap to support the weight of a lens. There is a small pocket on top of the bag. By the main carry handle that is a good size for a lens cloth. A side pocket again good for maybe a few cloths or some small accessories or a phone as there is a pass through hole for a cable. On the opposite side a mesh pocket that stretches well and would be good for tripod, monopod or water bottle. On the front there are some small loop straps for additional pouches, a fold out bag to hold the feel to of a tripod. There are two further pockets, one being big enough to store memory cards, batteries and a battery pouch as pictured. Interior - One of the most striking and welcome parts is the bright yellow interior, which really helps see equipment. The sides are made of felt until about half way down allowing for Velcro pads to be attached. The other is an easy wipe nylon type material which should help with any moisture and helps keep the bag light weight. There are two padded supports that come with the case, one of which has a soft cushioning fabric to it. Pictured I have a Sigma 150-600mm w/ hood reversed and a EOSR and battery grip attached. As you can see this only fills about half the bag, so plenty of space for a divider and carry more items if on a days trek. Comfort - The bag feels very light despite the build quality and the adjustable harness is easy to adjust to allow for the best carrying height. Pro - lightweight, good value compared to competition. Stealth outer appearance and easy to see inner appearance. Easy to adjust and open with good good quality zippers. Integrated rain cover which is a nice touch some other manufacturers make you pay extra for. Once setup is a well built and reliable bag. Cons - The top handle is designed to be slack so as not to get in the way of the zippers opening the main compartment, but is slack enough it make it harder to pick up while padded enough it can still get in the way. Zippers while good quality and open well do not appear to be fully splash proof which is disappointing . The side pocket is too small with the internal dividers being fiddly and some parts inaccessible, reducing the use for them. Waist belt while big enough even for a large individual does not feel like it offer a lot of support and despite adjusting the height of the straps never sits right. But this is a personal thing, your experience will vary. Having a monopod or tripod on the sides doesn’t work as it quickly unbalances the weight of the bag. Carrying on the back of the bag works fine for carrying actually adds a good layer of stability. However you won’t be able to remove your camera without first removing the tripod/monopod. The internal padding is good but a bit soft to offer quite enough stability. I will be looking to get an extra section of foam to attach. Overall verdict - while it may seem the cons far outweigh the pros it is not the whole story. The key is is to plan and setup the bag with what works for you. Like any bag. I would recommend this bag at the price point as so far once I have set it up right and have gotten used to the quirks it has, have been able to get out and about, getting the camera in and out quickly and have enough room to carry lots of gear.
