I guess you'd end up packing a bit of weight, but still maybe do-able? For power, I figured an SLA battery like for a UPS. You can get a 3 Ah one that's about 2½"x2½"x5" and weighs under 3 lbs. With 9.6W draw at 12V, a 3Ah battery should get you at least 2 hours shooting time shouldn't it?. So then you'd have the recorder, battery and camera base unit in the backpack.
