Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Lowepro Nova 1 AW Camera Bag (Black)

Customer Review: Better than expected, but not perfect
Summary: 4 Stars

When I initially started my camera bag search for my Canon Rebel XTI, I wanted something that could hold my full range of expected lenses. But after looking at many of the larger bags, I realized I would be hesitant to bring my camera out on the whim if I had to lug the huge bag around. So, I "settled" on the Lowepro Nova 1.

First off, the Nova 1 seems like the privileged twin of the Lowepro EX 160. They both share the same dimensions (7.75W x 4D x 6.5H in. / 19.5 x 10 x 16.5 cm) and layout. Given the Canon Rebel XT/XTI body is roughly 5W x 4H x 3D in., the camera body occupies two-thirds of the bag's width and all of the bag's depth when stored lens-down. Strategically placing the two velco dividers, I can fit the XTI with a mounted Tamron 28-75 lens on one side and a Canon 18-55mm kit lens and Canon 50mm F/1.8 lens on the other side. The bag could also, in theory, be arranged to accomodate the XTI body, a Canon 70-200mm F4L and the kit lens.

The Nova 1, however, differs from the EX 160 by offerring a few more pockets (zippered and open mesh) and a waterproof cover. The extra pockets are nice, accomodating the battery charger, extra batteries, lens filters, etc. I'm not too impressed with the attached waterproof cover, which hides in a bottom pocket. A plastic bag would accomplish the same task.

The bag is well padded and I was pleasantly surprised by it's sturdy construction. However, the biggest point against it is the plastic clips where the shoulder strap meets the bag. Unlike the other reviews, I've yet to have any issues with it. But walking down a crowded, pushy crowd with the bag holding your $1000+ equipment and I'd start to worry.
