I use a LowePro flipside 500AW. Carries 7D2, 10-22, 70-200f2.8, x2 extender, mavic pro x 3batts. Extra camera batteries, filter pouch on the side, mini flask, water bottle in side pockets. Hat n gloves, two head torches, more batteries in front pocket. Strapped to top in a drybag is large...

Primarily for rucksack size and total weight carried. For example a summer only camper might find 50l size adequate as you don't necessarily need such a thick mat or more insulation, thermals, crampons, axe or sturdier tent. Conversely carrying a winter set-up in summer can be quite...

I've got a 65l (+15) and generally summit camp and that just about right volume wise. Is winter camping part of the plan?

What about old tech walkies talkies with a VOX function? Sounds like a solution but depends on what you deem inexpensive.

All from the Loch Lomond & Trossachs National Park within the last month or so. Forecasts aren't looking too good in the coming days. Loch Katrine ..and again The Arrochar Alps Loch Lomond & Islands Loch Venachar

A few from a local hide.

A generic Halfords one might work, depends on inner diameter of tubing. If so check the flow direction before you install. Can you get to the connector and remove it? I see you can get fluid to come out but is that with the connector still attached to the main reservoir tube or is the tube...

My "straight-through" connecting joint between hoses (Honda) is actually a small one-way valve. One bad winter somehow managed to damage the small spring/ball leading to virtually no water coming out the front jets. £5 part and problem solved.

Yeah I'm subbed to Renegade Scots channel too, he does seem like a decent likeable guy. Dan Bell is another fave, funny lad. His style is unique, injects fun and humour. You'll probably never learn anything technical from his channel but you will laugh. It is another take on landscape vlogs...

Scotland's Mountains is one I've been subbed to for a few years now. It is more of a walking, camping, sometimes climbing vlog, he never or rarely talks about gear or processing, yet hauls his drone and camera up and shows Scotland in all seasons at its most brutal yet beautiful. If you want...

Well after much thought I went with Outdoor Photography Gear, choosing a rubber backed premium version. First impressions for my 70-200 are very good although I have no direct comparison with other brands. I will now order a set for my Sigma 150-600c. I didn't want an ''army camo" or...

How are you going to attach the camera to the rail? You going to simply screw it on or buy another clamp & plate?

After some thoughts I ordered a 105mm cap from Amazon. It fits well, appears to sit on or just clear of the front inner lip. The retaining mechanism seems strong enough and is small relative to the centre pinch caps. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B01NALMWRV/ref=mp_s_a_1_14
