Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Lowepro DryZone 100 Camera Backpack (Yellow)Customer Review: Dry as a bone Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this bag for a trip to puerto to rico, where we planned to hike through the jungle, go to waterfalls and go caving. It kept all my equipment dry walking through the rain and visiting waterfalls and such, but it really amazed me when I took it caving. Nearly 5 hours were spent crawling through mud or up to our necks in underground rivers. The pack was very literally floating along behind me or partly submerged for most of the trip. It was dragged over rocks, pushed through holes and floated along in places too small to fit through with it on my back. By the time it was over I had little hope for me gear, yet found not a drop of water on it when I finally got up the courage to open the water proof seal. I was quite astounded at the amount of abuse it had taken. When used properly this bag really does what it says it will do, and even though it warns against submersion it will handle even that if need be. However, when sealed this bag is not easy to get at, and if you happen to get a lot of mud or dirt on it, it is not advisable to open the seal and then close it again due to contaminants getting into the zipper. I can fit a canon xti with battery grip, 70-200mm f/2.8, 100mm f/2.8, 85mm f/1.8, 75-300 f/4-5.6, 430EX, tokina 11-16 f/2.8, plus lens hoods for the 70-200, 100, and 11-16 all in the main compartment, plus all other odds and ends. It is a task to get stuff out once the seal is zipped up, but you dont always have to keep that shut. The tripod carrier is also a big help. If you really need something waterproof, this is your bag, if not, then dont get it. I would not advise getting this as your main bag, and thinking of the waterproof as an added bonus should you ever need it.
