Yes folks the guy in the pink hat Rod Thomas has now become the Australian Importer for one of the best adventure designed camera backpacks in the world. Designed for photographers and Videographers like me to traverse an extreme landscape with comfort and ease ensuring both cameraman and gear gets those extreme shots without serious damage to person or equipment. An un-named photographer is seen here below putting one of these bags through it’s paces and this guy, shall we call “The Stag” is quoted as saying
“THIS BACKPACK IS ONE OF THE MOST COMFORTABLE VERSATILE BAGS I HAVE EVER USED”
Thanks to the mysterious man for the insight
Not only is this bag supremely comfortable and light it comes with an insert which houses all your camera gear leaving room for the essentials when trekking into the wilderness, (Hairdryers, lipstick, Cleo magazines, Pink Feather Boa). This insert, smarty coded ICU comes in different sizes for those guys who have too much gear in the bag department.
But wait there’s more. This bag is also airline carry on luggage approved so those mongrel airlines who constantly kick around your luggage that you paid dearly to have transported by them wont be able to say ” I’m sorry sir you will have to check that luggage”
I can go on and on about this bag but it’ll just get embarrassing so I’ll leave you with a pretty picture of the bag and a link to some boring statistics…
If you want one of these bags, and I know you will, contact The guy in the pink hat Rod Thomas at studio@rodthomas.com.au and ask about availability and price.

Yep, it is one very cool very comfortable and brilliant bag…the man himself Rod Thomas is a legend as well
What strikes me the most is the incredibly good portrait of CF using the bag. It is just so striking, such a fantastic dramatic pose saying “any second the Phase could explore or fall into water, the suspense lingers”. Surely this is shot by one incredible Master Nomad Photographer.
Notice the sweat pouring off me. That is a photog hard at work. This is a brilliant bag jokes aside. I hiked 10kms with it today in tassie and never got a sore back once. And it got rained on.
Finally a bag that accommodates Pink Feather Boas!
Can I have your old KATA seeing as you will be throwing it away ?
Merv,
Im sure he would love to mate, but I have heard from a good source he has filled it with bricks and its now being used as an anchor on True North… why dont you get an Fstop instead, MUCH MUCH better ! !
Bugger !!!!
