Re: Backpack advice for International travel
 

Personally I own the Kata 220-PL and I really enjoy the backpack- It has a ton of storage options, zip up compartments, rain fly, etc. I've always found bags to be a personally preference on how you like to carry your gear. I would load out your gear to a local camera store and see how it fits in some of the bags you are considering.

Hope that helps.
