The Moose Peterson Backpack Series from MindShift Gear was designed in collaboration with renowned wildlife photographer Moose Peterson to be a protective, practical, and portable home for your camera gear. Peterson’s extensive experience in wildlife and on-site shooting reflects in the bags’ easy-access three compartment system, which allows you to keep your lens attached to your camera’s body so you can be ready at a moment’s notice when time is of the essence. The interior also has a few zippered mesh pockets and adjustable dividers for keeping your gear organized. The padded flaps covering each of the compartments feature MindShift’s “Moose Ears” design, so they automatically flap closed to protect anything left in your bag from the elements—dust, rain, spray, etc. The shape of the bag and padded flaps provide a sturdy, flat, and clean surface for use as a workstation in the field.

This bag series was designed also to combat the nuisance of traveling with camera gear. The bags are sized to fit easily in overhead compartments and the two larger bags (MP-1 and MP-3) are equipped with a tuck-away harness system with a removable waist belt and handles on three sides so you can slide them in and out for transport without getting caught on anything. The super comfortable shoulder straps are built from dual-density foam and cushioned with air mesh. The exteriors of the bags also feature a monopod/tripod mounting system, a stretch water bottle pocket (fits 32 oz. bottles), and durable zipper pulls that are robust enough to grip even with gloves or mittens. The MP series bags all include a seam-sealed rain cover for extreme weather or for use as a drop cloth that folds up small enough to fit in a pocket of the bag.
