What if a more compact camera backpack ultimately allowed you to photograph more freely? Field report on the KentFaith 25L, a model designed for mobility, comfort and outdoor photography.
The KentFaith 25L camera backpack It offers a very good compromise between capacity, comfort, and mobility. More compact than the 32L version, it is particularly suitable for nature, travel, and hiking photographers who want to carry the essentials without unnecessary weight. A practical, well-organised, and comfortable bag in the field.

Choosing a camera backpack is never a minor decision. Between carrying capacity, walking comfort, quick access to equipment, and overall weight, Every photographer eventually finds their own balance.. And On the ground, it's often the details that make the difference.
After presenting the 32-litre version in a previous video, I wanted to try a different approach here: a more compact, lighter camera bag, but still capable of carrying the essentials for a nature, landscape, or travel outing.
The 25 L KentFaith camera backpack fits precisely into this philosophy. A more contained format, designed to remain mobile, comfortable and versatile, without falling into extreme minimalism.
For a long time, many photographers tended to want to “take everything with them”. Several bodies, lenses covering all focal lengths. Accessories “just in case”. A computer etc... Sometimes even rarely used equipment.
The problem is that after a few kilometres, the weight often starts to become a factor:
A 25-litre camera bag forces you to go back to basics.
And paradoxically, this can make photo outings much more enjoyable.
This type of volume becomes particularly interesting for:
On paper, 25 litres might seem relatively limited, but in practice, the internal organisation of the rucksack allows for carrying some very serious kit.
According to your equipment, it becomes possible to transport:

The interest here isn't to turn the bag into a “camera suitcase”, but rather to find a coherent balance between capacity and comfort. And that's what interested me most about this 25 L version.
This is often the criterion that is underestimated before buying. However, an uncomfortable camera bag quickly becomes a problem when you spend several hours outdoors.
The KentFaith 25 L model clearly focuses on:
On the pitch, this is particularly noticeable:
The bag remains relatively discreet and less cumbersome than a large technical model. And for nature or travel photography, this point can really change the overall experience.
One of the important elements of a camera bag is quick access to your gear. When the light changes quickly or a scene appears suddenly, wasting time opening your bag completely quickly becomes frustrating.
The KentFaith 25 L offers quite practical organisation for:
It's the sort of detail that seems secondary on a spec sheet, but becomes essential in reality.
What I particularly appreciate about this 25-litre format is that it's very well suited to mobile and immersive photography.
He encourages it almost naturally:
For many photographers, This type of bag can ultimately become the best compromise between :
As always, a more compact format also implies certain compromises.
This type of bag will be less suitable:
But for consistent and mobile field use, the compromise seems very interesting to me.
The 25 L KentFaith camera backpack offers a decidedly modern approach to outdoor photography. Less focused on accumulating gear, it is more oriented towards mobility, comfort, and real-world efficiency in the field. That's probably what makes it relevant today.
For a nature, landscape or travel photographer, this format can represent an excellent balance between freedom of movement and carrying capacity. A bag designed not only to transport equipment... but above all to keep you wanting to walk, explore and photograph. 🚶🏻
You can find my full field feedback in a video directly on YouTube with:
Yes, in many situations. A 25-litre [bag] already allows you to carry a camera body, several lenses, and essential accessories for a day trip.
Yes, clearly. Its lighter and more compact format makes it particularly interesting for long walks and outdoor excursions.
Yes, a compact or intermediate tripod can be attached to the bag depending on the configuration used.
The 25 L prioritises mobility and lightness, while the 32 L offers more capacity for heavier setups or longer trips.
Indeed, it's probably one of its most interesting uses thanks to its balance between reduced bulk and carrying capacity.
