Will this be comfortable for a 4-5 hour hike? I'm looking to put in a DSLR sized camera, some food, small gear (handheld gps, flashlights, knife, etc.), and maybe a sweater.
For those that have had this, how does it hold up to rain? Camelbak says it has a waterproof main compartment. I can't find many packs in this size range that would fit my need to protect my camera from water. Considered the Vantage 40, but that seems too big for my needs, and the H.A.W.G. NV seems too small. If anyone has any other suggestions, I'm all ears.

The vantage 40 would actually be a good choice if your camera takes up a lot of room (and given your other listed gear). The vantage 40 would also allow you to have more options for carrying gear on the outside of your pack.
