The Havana Series
The Havana Series is designed to give you easy access to the gear you need, wherever you are. These versatile packs will hold and protect your gear - or, you can take out the padded camera insert and dividers to make each bag your everyday carry-all. You can strap your tripod into the tripod holding system, and you can conveniently attach the bag to your trolley. Its timeless design is discreet, spacious, and comfortable, allowing you to embrace your leisure time without distraction.

Sling the Havana shoulder bag or messenger bag over your shoulder and be on your way, whether to a shoot, to a vacation, or to a leisurely stroll. Whether you're trekking through the city, the wilderness or anything in between, the Havana backpack will have you covered. Quench your thirst for adventure, and let your Havana bag do the heavy lifting. The Havana shoulder bags (Havana 21 & 36), messenger bags (Havana 33 & 38), and Havana 41 backpack come in khaki/brown.

The Oslo Series
The Oslo Series lets you carry your gear safely and comfortably without sacrificing aesthetics. Slip through crowds or jump on a bike -- the Oslo bag will let you maneuver without a worry. Oslo bags offer easy access to your camera and sturdy, sleek design, letting you snap a photo at the drop of a hat.

Load up your Oslo sling bag with your camera, tablet, accessories and tripod, and let your inspiration carry you away. The Oslo 15, 22, and 25 come in black, grey, and burgundy. Oslo shoulder bags provide enough space for your camera with an attached standard lens as well as up to 4 additional lenses, while Oslo zoom bags give your kit the room it needs. Like the bigger sling bags these models also offer plenty of room for extra accessories and support the transport of a tablet device. In terms of protection, the shoulder and zoom bags are an equal match to the more capacious Oslo sling bags. You'll appreciate the thoughtful touches like a tacky-gripped shoulder strap and well-organized pockets inside and out. The Oslo 12Z and 4Z come in black, grey, and burgundy.

The Sedona Series
Much like its namesake, the Sedona Bag collection by Vanguard is a study in rugged beauty. Sedona bags are perfect for both the seasoned professional and the adventurous amateur. Photographers will enjoy each bag’s balance between gear protection and lightweight design. The collection contains slings and backpacks that can be easily converted from a daypack to a full-gear backpack and even an everyday bag. Carrying a tripod, monopod or walking sticks is easy with three ways to safely attached them. Additional features such as the Hydration-ready pocket offers easy-access and integrated safety whistle make the Sedona Sling Bag perfect for outdoor use.

Sedona backpacks are perfect for photographers needing to carry and protect their gear while hiking a trail or traveling cross town. A 10 Point Adjustment Harness and Breathable Suspension System ensure that you can easily carry your gear for long treks. A rear entry main compartment ensures your gear is safe for travel and quick entry is provided by simply removing the straps and swinging the bag around safely while wearing the waist belt. The Sedona 41, 45 and 51 come in black, blue or khaki/green. A versatile bag, the Sedona sling bag’s side access lets you get to your gear quickly and without the need to put your bag on the ground. A breathable suspension system and detachable chest harness ensure that you can carry your gear comfortably on all your adventures. The Sedona 34 and 43 come in black, blue, or khaki/green.

When striking out on a chance photo adventure, photographers of all skill levels will appreciate taking a Reno Collection camera bag along for the ride.

The Reno collection contains full-featured shoulder bags, slings and backpacks. Grab a Reno bag and you have the perfect companion for your next photo odyssey, no matter where it is.

The Reno backpack is perfect for taking your gear across town or around the globe. An Advanced Harness System with 10 adjustment points and breathable suspension system ensures you can comfortably carry your gear no matter where your adventure takes you. Use your Reno Backpack as a gear pack, with multiple storage and gear hanging options, or as a daily use sling for school or work. The Reno 34, 41, 45 and 48 come in blue, khaki/green, and orange.

Protective and discreet, the Reno shoulder bag’s easy top access let you grab your camera when that perfect shot requires quick reflexes.

The Alta CA Series
The success of Vanguard’s current product lines has inspired a new enthusiast tripod as part of the Alta series. The all new Alta CA redefines our series of enthusiast level tripods.

Compact 20mm or 23mm leg tubing keeps the size down without sacrificing stability. The Alta CA latest canopy mechanism, sturdy joints, and feet are straight from our professional series.
