Backpack Manfrotto MB PL2-BP-BL-M

The Manfrotto PRO Light Backloader Camera Backpack M (MB PL2-BP-BL-M) is a professional backloader bag designed to protect and organize camera and video equipment while supporting fast access and versatile carrying options. The pack uses the M-Guard™ Protection System with high-density EVA foam dividers and a SAS-TEC viscoelastic memory foam base reinforcement to provide shock absorption where it is most needed. The exterior is made from water-repellant RipStop nylon/polyester with reinforced yarns, Duraflex® hardware and YKK® zippers for long-lasting performance.

Advantages

The backpack combines slim-profile padded M-Guard™ dividers and a SAS-TEC reinforced base for multi-impact shock resistance while remaining compact. Rear (backloader) access gives secure entry to a fully padded camera compartment with customizable interiors that can be arranged for 2–3 full-frame DSLR or mirrorless bodies with portrait grips plus multiple lenses. A top quick-access opening provides fast reach to frequently used cameras or lenses. Additional features include a dedicated 15" laptop sleeve, dual-sided tripod connection for travel tripods, adjustable chest strap, DuoFace sun and rain cover, and a TSA-approved padlock option to secure the main compartment.

• Professional photographers and videographers who need protected rear access storage

Recommendations

For best protection, place heavier bodies and larger lenses near the SAS-TEC reinforced base, distribute weight evenly across the padded dividers, and use the DuoFace cover in wet or sunny conditions to protect equipment from moisture and heat.
