Vanguard Alta Sky 53

The ALTA SKY 53 is a dynamic backpack that sets a new standard for customizable transport and work solutions. In an unprecedented way, it offers multiple uses combined with reliable protection of equipment. The large main compartment is fully customizable and can be opened from the back as well as from the top.

The variety of dividers and access options gives you the freedom to choose how much gear and personal items you want to carry. Customize the backpack with its interior layout to fit your workflow and take advantage of the different access options. A maximum of 1-2 professional DSLRs with lens attached (up to 300mm f/2.8), 6-8 lenses, 2 flash units with accessories, or a drone with full accessories and a professional DSLR with lens attached will fit in the backpack when you use the special dividers with dual color scheme for drone use. If you take less equipment, this backpack can also be used for hiking.

The rear compartment can safely store a 17" laptop; the additional padded sleeve can also fit a tablet. (*Depending on size, only certain laptop/tablet combinations will fit in the backpack at one time). Store other gear and personal items like memory cards, cables, batteries, chargers, or smartphone right where you need them: either securely in an interior pocket or quickly at hand in an attachment pocket. Enjoy pockets that you can access from inside and outside. Listen to music through our headphone jack that connects via cable to your smartphone in the inside pocket. Avoid mistakes with our easy coded "full"/"empty" media storage. Always have plenty of water with you thanks to two large side pockets for water bottles. Attach or hitch anything you want to it with the numerous straps, webbing, and innovative connectors in various parts of the backpack.

Plus, the ALTA SKY 53 has additional protective features like our full rain cover, our unparalleled quality in materials and backpack construction, as well as the sturdy carry handle for quickly taking the backpack with you, and the extra handle to easily get the backpack out of the trunk or overhead compartment on the plane.

Since the backpack is designed to carry heavy gear for extended periods of time, we set the bar extremely high for carrying comfort. Our ergonomic back and carrier system features a breathable and well-padded 3D back panel, uniquely shaped and easily adjustable straps that fit your body perfectly, an adjustable sternum strap, and a well-padded belt strap for added support. Together, these features mean you'll never get tired while wearing it!

Several innovative connectors allow you to choose the best transport solution for your tripod, lighting tripod or walking stick. Enjoy all the ALTA EXPERIENCE with the ALTA LINK, which allows you to carry your ALTA PRO tripod in the high-quality ALTA ACTION tripod bag connected to an ALTA SKY backpack!
