Chaotic
I do have one complaint on this pack, and it's that the bladder is a real pain to get in. 5 liter bladder, raincoat, light jacket, gloves, beanie, pack rainfly, first aid, knife, snacks, and camera. I would recommend this pack for someone who counts their grams and wants to go farther, it's a good summit pack and a great smaller sized daypack.
If a zipper was added down one side with one detachable shoulder tension strap, this problem could be alleviated, but it would add weight to the pack. I find it best to unload most of the main compartment to get the bladder in, then reloading the main. The hip belt is perfect, not too big or small, and it keeps the load on your hips.
The shoulder straps fit great and are breathable as well, they also have a strap for the bladder tube. Finding the perfect daypack has been something of an obsession for me, and I think I finally found it in the Talon. Overall, The Talon is great with the exception of that tight bladder opening. If you carry more gear or weight I would recommend the Manta, it carries weight much better with its frame, and it is also more ventilated, but it does sit farther away from your body.
This pack is just big enough for a 2-2. Hiking is always a balance between how much weight you want to carry vs how prepared you want to be, and I think this pack strikes a good middle ground. I initially used the Osprey Manta as a daypack and wanted something a bit smaller that would carry closer to the body, and the Talon is perfect. The Talon, not so much.
