![]() It will even fit a large prosumer DSLR with a big zoom lens and one or to accessories. The compartment and the supplied dividers give you more than enough flexibility to adjust the space you have to fit your gear. There is enough room for my Sony A7 with the kit lens attached and for three other lenses or accessories. When you open the compartment you’ll find a rather roomy interior. F-stop has also used YKK zippers on the back, but they’ve used smaller pull tabs on these zippers so they don’t poke your back. The most important compartment of the bag is opened from the back, the side that is against your back when you wear the bag. The Tijuana is the biggest backpack in the new Millar series, to find out more about the Millar series check out the F-stop website at The brand label on the front There are several bags in the new Millar series, shoulder bags, slings and backpacks. I’ll translate that to: casual bags for ‘cool’ people. That’s why F-stop has (re-)introduced the Millar series, bags for the ‘mobile creative’. Those kind of bags are about versatility and comfort, but due to the way they are built they may not appeal to every photographer. The Mountain series bags are a little like the Tenba Shootout 24L I’ve reviewed recently ( read my review about the Tenba Shootour 24L here), built to last and with details that active users will love. In this review I’ll tell you more about this backpack, the design and how it works in day to day use.į-stop is known for their high end Mountain series backpacks and bags for photographers that take their gear on active endeavors. The Tijuana is the casual backpack from the new Millar series. It is meant for the accessories, you need to have close to reach.A review about the F-stop Tijuana photo backpack. The inside one has zippers for some accessories, the outside is reachable separately and has two pockets (one with a zipper) and a ring for the keys. The top of the inside is formed from two pockets. ![]() Even without frame, the bottom is well designed and the backpack stands alone on the flat surface. Tilopa itself is (because of the rugged material) quite a heavy backpack (1,5kg without frame -1.9kg with frame). The side of the backpack is reinforced with the metal frame, but personally, I got it out to get the backpack lighter. ![]() I miss some extra small pockets for the batteries and the memory cards that Lowepro backpacks have. It can also be used for the hydration bag. Inside has attachments for the ICU and a computer pocket, which suits up to 15'' size computers. Now I store them in the top pockets or inside of the ICU. The back panel inside part has a zipped pocket, which I used for the batteries, but if you forget to zip it till the end, it can happen that when you will open it next time, the batteries will fall out and you can lose them. It is also not very fast way to get your camera out of the backpack as you have to put it down from your shoulders to reach it. ![]() What I don't like is that the ICU is wider than the hole in the back panel, so the space to open the zippers of the ICU sometimes is very tight. I love to reach the camera through the back as you simply put your backpack on the ground, zip it and get your gear out. The camera and lenses are accessible through the zipped back panel. It has rugged zippers that are working smoothly. Inside of the backpack in accessible through the the back panel or through the top which opens like a bag.
