Backpack Manfrotto MB MA3-BP-FM Universal Black

The Manfrotto MB MA3-BP-FM Universal Black is a multi-function camera and laptop backpack engineered for fast-paced shooting. It is built to accommodate a full-frame mirrorless camera with an attached 70-200 mm f/4 plus three additional lenses and a flash. The backpack is divided into two compartments: a padded lower section dedicated to photography gear with the Manfrotto M-Guard™ Protection System made from high-density EVA foam for shock absorption, and an upper section for personal items or a second camera body. The bag also includes a padded sleeve for a 15-inch laptop, two external side zippered pockets and frontal tripod straps. External fabrics are water-repellent and a raincover is supplied for adverse weather.

Advantages

The backpack offers double side access to the main gear compartment, top access for quick retrieval of personal items or a second camera, and a front opening for easy arrangement of equipment. The M-Guard™ Protection System provides slim-profile shock protection while maximizing usable space. Lightweight synthetic construction and a comfortable shoulder strap support extended use, and included tripod straps and raincover increase versatility in the field.
