A completely waterproof carrying case for your photography gear that’s not made of hard unforgiving plastic. This soft-sided backpack will float even when fully loaded (perfect for kayakers/boaters). This backpack comes tripped out with ergonomic lumbar support, tuck-away tripod holder, self-draining mesh pockets, rubber handle, and a fully customizable interior for any camera system. Pretty cool in so many ways we couldn’t even begin to tally up the coolness rating.

The Holidays are a time for indulging your nieces and nephews in some new pursuit [perhaps photography, what else is there?] that they will carry with them for the rest of their lives, a time for helping dad reach his ultimate dream of getting a coveted pro DSLR or rangefinder camera, perhaps a season for stuffing your own stocking with a gift certificate to your favorite photography store [might we suggest Adorama] and then pretending it was from grandma.

On that note, let photo.net show you what’s hot this season, organized in price categories so you don’t go overboard, or underboard, for those on your holiday list.
