VANGUARD ALTA SKY Now fits up to a 1200mm f/8 lens
The Alta Sky Series is becoming the go to solution for carrying a long lens over longer distances due to:
#1 Long Lens & Additional Lenses
If you’re hiking long distances, you don’t want to miss a stunning sunset or sublime macro shot, and almost every Alta Sky slows you to carry additional lenses.
#2 Easy Access
All models include a long compartment with solid dividers and an extra wide top access so it’s easy to pack and remove your camera.
#3 Protection
The Alta Sky is designed to be tough with a 1000D polyester exterior and outstanding padding to protect your valuable kit.
#4 Comfort
The harness system is designed to carry large loads in comfort over extended hikes, keeping you as fresh as possible for your photoshoot.
This means offering a range of sizes to match the lenses available, from a smaller APSC lens like the SONY 100-400mm F4.5 GM OOS to a monster CANON RF 1200mm F8L IS USM and Vanguard now offers six options:
