Flipside Sport Camera Backpack

The Lowepro Flipside 500 AW II is a great camera backpack, I am upgrading from the 200 AW II which has served me well but I needed something bigger now. My number one backpack requirement was to find one that could fit a Sony a7sIII with a 200-600 lens attached, a Sony 70-200 on either side and some room to spare for other lenses, filters and blowers etc and this backpack turned out to be perfect. It's certainly much bigger than the 200 AW II but I think it fits nicely on my back and not only is it comfortable, but I feel like my gear is safe and not bouncing around while I'm trekking around woodlands or cities. I don't think I've ever spent over $100 for any kind of backpack, and I know this one is actually on the cheaper end of camera backpacks, but overall it's been stellar and would absolutely buy it again if I had to.

I recently purchased a new Lowepro Flipside 200 AW II Camera Backpack as my old one had finally given out after many years of good use. There are some improvements with the new one, more compartments and space to store things. I use it exclusively to carry my Nikon D850 with attached Tamron 150-600mm zoom lens. These fit snugly with lots of padding. There is a protective cover for if/when it rains as well. Lowepro makes a great product!

I really like the improvements to the backpack. I have the original flipside and still use it but the new zippers are stronger and smoother than the first one. When it is completely unzipped it lays open making it easier to access my camera. I also like the new handle that was added to the back of the backpack.

This is a great backpack! It is easily comparable to my Lowepro flipside 300 only it has more room! There is plenty ofroom for a 70-200mm 2.8 and a couple other lenses and a flash, plus the camera. It has a hidden rain cover its nicely padded.

simple and does exactly what you want it too. Not the best quality but lightweight and portable. I carry This inmy backpack on my sport bike.

I love the BlackRapid straps. I've used the Sport, Double Breathe, and wrist strap for a few years now. I was wondering how I'd be able to use my strap while carrying a backpack. Luckily, BlackRapid has me covered. The Backpack Breathe looked like the perfect solution. My first attempts at fastening the strap to my new backpack were a bit disappointing. The strap was a little short. A test connection here and there finally fit. I can now easily carry my camera and use it with ease, just like when using my Sport strap when not carrying a backpack.

I was searching for an water proofed backpack which I can pick up for sport activities at the water (e.g. standup paddling). The backpack is lightweight and nice to wear. The Shoulder straps are perfect soft and the typically GoPro mount is a bonus ;)

In 2013, visited B&H in New York and tried out all of their camera backpacks before choosing the Flipside 400 AW. I’ve been using the Flipside bag continually ever since, carrying it for hours. It’s flown worldwide, and I’ve never once had a problem. It’s been to concerts where it’s had to lay in dirt, and it cleaned right up and the interior stayed spotless. It’s been in rain and the inside stayed dry. I never worry about my cameras getting damaged when they’re in this bag. Eleven years later and it’s still just as good as new. I cannot recommend LowePro enough. My next bag will be a LowePro, if this one ever wears out. At this point, I doubt it ever will.

I had the original Flipside 500 and it worked very well for years. This is one is probably slightly better. I can fit my camera with my Tamron 150-600 attached, even with the hood in normal position. I also have room for another camera, 4-5 lenses and all my accessory stuff. It functions well as a backpack when needed although I mainly use it for my car.

The Lowpro Flipside Trek BP 450 was everything I expected and more. It is the end all be all camera back pack. Lots of room, well built and definitely had the camera enthusiast in mind. Whether your a novice or pro it is the complete camera backpack.
