The first Everyday Backpack 30L lived up to its name, with

room for everything photographers need to carry on a daily

version has more durable zippers, more comfortable shoulder

straps, better laptop storage and larger external pockets.

Breakthrough’s X100 filter holder is designed

for use on lenses with focal lengths as short

as 16mm. It has a snap-lock mechanism

that makes it easy to attach to the lens

adapter ring (sold separately). It accepts

100mm square and rectangular filters from

Breakthrough or other brands.
