Kodak 2D 5x7 Backpack Help Needed

[ScottPhotoCo]

If I remember correctly, around $80. I bought the wrap at Freestyle Photo here in LA.

In the early 1990s we took a trip out west for our 20th anniversary. I had just gotten into LF with a Speed Graphic and make-do was my main strategy. A back pack was needed but buying ANYTHING was not an option. I got out a Jan-Sport book bag type day pack and laid the gear into it to see what I could take. Had to do some editing! Then took a closed cell foam sleeping pad and cut it into maybe 6-8 pieces all the same shape of the bag. Then each piece had windows cut into it for the gear. The cut pieces were stacked and hot glued together and stuffed into the book bag. It was a solid and well padded set up. I could have dropped it from a 3rd story window.

Pack and foam can often be found in a thrift store for a few bucks.

Twenty years later, I am deaf, blind and lame so I only take my gear out on a set of heavy duty luggage wheels or a golfbag cart.

Just an example of taking a travel pack and turning it into a camera pack (8x10). Five holders go in the detachable daypack.

A Lowprto 400AW might work. I've read where it is allowed onboard as a carry along.

Now that I thought about it, the LowePro 400AW will work for 5x7. The film holders will slip into the front pocket (get a case to keep them nice), the tripod on the side, and the rest of the gear (photograpy that is) inside.
