The original Brevite backpack launched in 2015 after a successful Kickstarter campaign, raising over $38,000. The concept was simple: Build a camera bag that looked like a run-of-the-mill backpack, the type you might carry your school books and a bologna sandwich in. The company is back with two new models that build in new functionality without changing the idea of the original.

The new models, the Rucksack and Rolltop, are built to accommodate Brevite’s original camera insert, which can now be swapped between all three packs. The insert can hold a camera body with attached lens plus three additional lenses. It is long enough to fit up to a 70-200mm f/2.8 telephoto, according to DPReview. All bags offer both front and side access to the gear compartment.

Both new bags feature nearly identical feature sets, including a 15-inch laptop sleeve, side and bottom tripod mounts, a removable lens cap buckle on the shoulder strap, built-in rain cover, and memory card pockets on the sternum and hip straps. Both packs also have identical external dimensions, at 20 by 13 by 6 inches.

In addition to the above, the Rolltop includes a rainproof top and compression straps to hold a skateboard. It is also the more expensive of the two, at $185 compared to $165 for the Rucksack. However, Brevite is offering a 20-percent discount for customers who pre-order one of the bags before the mid-September ship date, bringing the prices to $148 and $132, respectively.

The excellent intermediate Canon EOS R10 camera is $86 off at Walmart today

I recently grabbed a Canon EOS R50 bundle for a trip to the Dominican Republic. I did a lot of research before I made my decision, sifting through the best camera deals, and the two options I essentially narrowed down were the R50 and the EOS R10. The biggest difference between the two is that the R10 gives you more granular control over some of the photoshoot settings. R50, on the other hand, was designed assuming you'll mostly use the automatic shooting modes. That's a great option for novices, while the R10 is better for intermediate to more skilled photographers. Why am I telling you all of this? Because the excellent Canon EOS R10 camera is on sale at Walmart for Black Friday, discounted by $86 to $760 instead of $846. It is one of the better early Black Friday camera deals I've found so far. It comes with an 18-45mm lens. Needless to say, that's a great deal. Comparatively, the R10 with body only -- no lens -- is .
