Large Backpack

Going backpacking. How can I carry backpack plus rather large camera bag?

I prefer camera backpacks such as lowepro computreker, is there anything out there same capacity but more versatile, like a shoulder bag or even better a backpack/shoulder bag.
Please help, much appreciated
To clarify I need to carry a backpack plus a camera bag?

If I understand correctly, what you are asking is how do you carry your camera (preferrably in a location where it is easy to reach on the trail) when you are also carrying a full camping backpack with tent, Sleeping Bag, etc., yes?

I do a fair amount of multi-day backpacking trips and sometimes carry my Canon Digital Rebel SLR (and a large 35mm Minolta camera before that). What I have found is the best approach is to get one of those triangular-shaped camera cases (where the lens points down) and where (this is the important part), you can un-clip the Shoulder Strap. You then get a couple of carbiner clips and clip the camera case directly to your pack's front shoulder straps (with each shoulder strap linked to one corner of the case). The result is that the case is essentially strapped to your chest in front.

This works pretty well... a little weight in front actually balances out against the pack on your back and your camera is at the ready if you need it on the trail. You can stow the case's shoulder strap and any extra lens in your pack to switch around in camp as needed. The only drawback is that the case in front obscures your view of your feet somewhat which can seem a little weird at first and be a bit awkward if on a really rough trail with a lot of delicate footwork.

I have a Case Logic case that I use this way and I can fit either an SLR with a telephoto lens or a regular lens and an extra wide-angle ready in the bottom. There are other cases that would work just as well for this setup too.

Whatever you do, if you are carrying a full backpack, you do not want any more straps hanging around your neck and shoulders.
