Vanguard VEO Select 45 BFM BK Front Opening Backpack

The VEO SELECT 45BFM is a full-gear backpack that offers unique storage combination possibilities. Opt for the full front opening setup, arranging gear based on personal preference. Alternatively, you can set up the bottom 2/3 with gear for quick side access and utilize the top 1/3 compartment for separate access to either more gear or personal effects. Or, you can arrange the gear for easy top access and dedicate the full-length side compartment to store a small tripod inside the bag.

The sturdy backpack guarantees rugged protection and easily safeguards a DSLR or mirrorless/CSC/hybrid camera, 4-5 extra lenses (up to 70-200mm f/2.8), a flash, and accessories. You also have versatile options for carrying video gear or a small drone individually or alongside your camera gear. You can even place a small tripod within the bag -- depending on the gear and the available space -- or it can be docked externally in the side pocket (which is also a great water bottle carrier).

Strategically placed internal and external pockets arrange all other essentials. Slip a tablet (up to 10.5”) into the protective sleeve on the rear opening panel. A full-length double-sided front zipper pocket can be used for a notebook, extra tablet, or as a sling for a jacket. A concealed rear pocket secures valuables such as a wallet or travel documents close to your body, where no prying hands can reach. A flexible divider is perfect for extra lens protection, or it can be used to create a pad for a tripod/monopod leg to provide comfortable carrying over the shoulder when quickly moving between locations.

Enjoy all-encompassing protection thanks to superb bag construction, rugged materials, and sturdy dividers. Stay dry and always ready with Vanguard’s reinforced water- and scratch-resistant material on the bottom, along with our total-coverage rain cover. The VEO SELECT 45BFM features a super-comfortable ergonomic airflow back and harness. When traveling, it simply connects to the handle of your wheel-along luggage and lightens the burden while traversing through airports. The bag also has a convenient handle to hang it on a hook or grab on the go.

The VEO SELECT 45BFM is a front-opening backpack that fits a DSLR or mirrorless/CSC/hybrid camera, 4-5 lenses (up to 70-200mm f/2.8), a flash, accessories and up to a 10.5” tablet. Alternatively, you can fit video gear or a small drone. The multi-access and diverse internal set up offers classic front and side access, or front and top access with the option to fit a small tripod inside.
