Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Lowepro Flipside 200 Backpack (Arctic Blue)
Customer Review: Excellent bag for my needs!
Summary: 5 Stars
My needs:
*I wanted a backpack style camera bag for hikes in the woods - as shoulder or sling bags are uncomfortable and cumbersome for me.
*I was looking for a bag that was big enough to hold my camera, a couple extra lenses, filters, extra battery packs, and assorted small accessories.
*I wanted a bag with amble padding to protect my camera/lenses.
*Lowepro was my first choice in searching for a bag, as I own another Lowepro product, and have been very pleased with its quality, design, and durability.
I found everything that I was looking for and more with this bag! It suits all of my needs as listed above, and as a bonus, I like being able to strap my tripod to it, and the side pouch is great for holding trail maps, pen/paper, etc.
PROS:
*Backpack style leaves my arms free so that I may keep my balance when hiking and have my hands free to do other things.
*I LOVE the back access design so that I can easily slip out of the arm straps and swing the entire bag around on the waist belt to access my gear. It's handy, and I don't have to set the bag down on the ground....which is often damp, dirty, or uneven. I like having everything at my fingertips, where I'm less likely to loose anything. It makes a great platform for lens or filter changes and other tasks.
*I like the security of having the bag attached to me at all times. I never have to worry about someone walking off with my stuff while I'm busy setting up a tripod or getting my shot.
*The pack is rigid with plenty of adjustable padding. It keeps everything snug and in place. I don't have to worry about things getting jostled, and I feel safe leaving a lens attached to the camera.
CONS:
*A waterproof cover would have been nice, like on my other Lowepro bag.
Other points to mention:
*As mentioned in other reviews, the access panel does not fully unzip, so it is a little harder to access items at the bottom of the bag. HOWEVER, I believe this is a good design because it keeps the bottom of the bag rigid. I think if the flap unzipped all the way, it would end up being floppy, and not as secure a platform when opening the bag while it is attached to you by the waist belt. The padding on the flap is sewn in a way that allows the flap to hinge away easily for access to those items toward the bottom of the bag. Simply arrange the bag padding so that the items you use less often are at the base of the bag.
