Lowepro Flipside 500 Aw Ii 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 have a Lowepro Flipside 300 AW II that I have used for years. It has been great for my initial photo needs. I think this particular model has been discontinued, but Lowepro has other sizes available. I recently purchased the Flipside 500 AW II because I needed more space. I cover a lot of ground many days doing outdoor and wildlife photography. I purchased this pack hoping it would hold two Sony full size mirrorless cameras with lens attached (lens- Sony 200-600mm, Sony 16-35mm or 24-240mm). I was pleasantly surprised how well everything fit and room for a third lens and other accessories including a full size carbon tripod on the outside. I sometimes carry as much as 25 pounds including everything in the pack and it is very well padded and comfortable to carry for whatever distance I need to go.. I would highly recommend the pack for design, build quality and most important, comfort at a very reasonable price.

The Lowepro Flipside 400 AW III has a very sturdy feel, with a lot of padding around the main compartments. I also love the internal divider system, which provides an infinite variety of possible configurations. I am using this backpack as a bag for the eyepieces, star atlases, and other peripherals associated with my telescope, and I would highly recommended in this capacity.

The Lowepro Flipside 400 AW III is the right bag for a large lens. The Sigma 150 - 600mm F5 - 6.3 DG Contemporary will fit in this bag mounted to your camera body. The bag can be rearranged internally for different equipment, with many extra pockets for accessories and pads or laptops.

This is, by far, the best backpack that I ever had. My Lowepro 450 AW II was super heavy and not practical for daily use, the National Geographic Africa is the perfect size and weight for daily use.

I uses these straps on my Lowepro BP 450 AW II, they work great for securing items to the backpack, but the latches used to mount the straps to the backpack seem to open randomly, I have a 3 ish pound gimbal mounted to it, I use of these straps to secure it, I wouldn't use any less for any piece of equipment as I would be concerned of it failing.

The Lowepro Photo Active 300 AW Backpack (Blue/Black) is a stylish, attractive, and durable backpack. All compartments are well-thought-out, and the backpack is well-made. One drawback is that the insert for camera gear simply fits into the backpack, creating gaps between the backpack walls and the insert. If something small is placed in the top compartment, it can fall through the gap and down to the bottom. However, I am confident that this is a minor issue for such a stylish 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.

The product is well designed and manufactured. I use it primarily with my Lowepro Toploader Zoom 50 AW II camera case, but its interlock system works equally well with my Lowepro Stealth Reporter D400 AW Shoulder Bag.
