Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Lowepro Mini Trekker AW Backpack (Green)
Customer Review: Excellent Bag for Two Bodies and Lenses
Summary: 5 Stars
My son and I both have Canon bodies. They are the 40D and 5D MKII. Previously, we have not been successful finding a compact backpack for traveling. We aren't looking to carry the "kitchen sink," but, rather just a nice assortment of lenses we share, flash, tripod, and other necessities. I have tested three or four bags, which looked good "in the shop," but proved unwieldy once I started loading them up. We wanted to keep both our cameras and lenses on our person, rather than having to check them, and wanted one bag we could "grab" easily, and carry comfortably with minimum fatigue. The Canons have rather large grips and arranging dividers in other bags wasted a lot of space. So, similarly sized bags were too small, and larger ones were, well, huge.
This bag can be configured to hold both bodies, each with short zoom lenses, one 580 EX II flash, and four or five lenses (Example: 14mm, 15-35mm, 28-105mm, 60-300mm). It proved perfect for our needs. I was also very pleased with the quality and balance. It's a compact package that's easy to get hold to, as well as carry. The first attribute is more important that you might think when navigating airport security, and similar. It fits my frame, I'm 5'9", and my son who's 5' equally well, with quick adjustment. I found other bags to have straps hanging everywhere, hooking on everything, but, none where you wanted them for anything other than wearing them. This bag felt more like a compact luggage when grabbed by the top loop. It is well padded, and I feel it provides a reasonable amount of protection against the unavoidable bumps incurred during travel. I also liked the unobtrusive colors, green and black. I can see great utility in the fold out weatherproof cover. It's integral to the bag, and can be deployed in a moment. It does a good job of keeping your gear dry in an unexpected downpour.
If you need a high quality compact bag for travel it's perfect!
