I came across an interesting photo bag. It's a hybrid of a shoulder
bag and a backpack:

It looks like it was launched about a year ago.
Unfortunately, it is still not available for sale in the US
(except for eBay, where it becomes overpriced on top of being
expensive).
This is a type of a bag that I am looking for.
I have been enjoying Vanguard Up-rise II 33: it allows carrying a
travel camera+ set and a laptop. And it has been passing as a
"personal item"
on airplane flights.
With the quick-access zipper at the top, it is very convenient to
photograph from while on the road.
The main thing I'd wanted to change/add to it is the option of
carrying it as a backpack, - to ease the load on my back. So, in that
regard the Manfrotto/NG hybrid bag would be great.
So, I wonder if anybody has seen other "hybrid" bags
(backpack-shoulder bag) from other brands?
