I kind of hate to admit it now but I have no particular fondness for backpacks...photographic or otherwise
for high mileage, all-day walking there aren't a lot of alternatives
as for slung cameras...nope not a fan
for full disclosure I have a tamrac evolution 6...it's well built, practical and it does exactly what it was designed to do
the only thing I've done to it is add straps to carry my dolica to the bottom of the back
I really hate humping the darn thing
normally for a long excursion I use a medium sized lumbar pack or a soft daypack/ruck/book bag
I wrap up my spare stuff in something weather resistant
however my camera and primary lens go into a holster that attaches to d-rings on the pack straps or is worn over my shoulder
I have a very old tamrac and a newer clik
the clik is a great bag but too rigid and bulky when it is hanging over my chest
like most things it comes down to personal preference
all this gear has its own set of quirks
so you really have to try this stuff out before you commit to it
good luck
