View attachment 14192 One critical issue for me was the limitation to carry
I2 far from the car trunk for nature photography. The best spots are at a hiking distance.
After several tries, I found the best solution is to adapt a real mountain backpack (I used a North Face 90 lts.), with a comfortable harness system. The modification takes the very light, original
I2 case.
In a typical real big backpack, there are plenty of straps. Just use the two straps at the bottom, and two of the side straps. You need to extend the length of those straps with nylon webbing of the same width of the backpack straps. I used side release buckles to connect the backpack straps with the webbing extensions. No stitching required.
It is a very cheap solution (if you have a big backpack with proper straps) and it is extremely comfortable to carry in a long hike. It also is very easy to use, just disconnect the extension straps and open the
I2 original case. All the gear is properly protected. The
I2 case will get character with lots of marks.
