Backpacks
Laptop compartment
If you want to back up images to a laptop or hard drive, a dedicated compartment is a good thing to look for.
Tripod connection
Having the choice to attach your tripod to the bag is a good option for long distance walking, plus it keeps your hands free.

Water repellent

Large pockets
Spacious pockets are essential if you own a good selection of filters and other accessories you’d like to carry with you.
