Review on Lowepro Flipside 300 Camera Backpack by Bobby Frazier

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Handy, compact and lots of storage space for my size

I'm 1.62m tall and could comfortably carry a large amount of digital and film equipment to work. The all-weather cover was very helpful in keeping the bag and my gear dry. I wouldn't test it if it was raining. Very spacious. I managed to pack: 2 DSLRs, 3 lenses, 10 rolls of 35mm film, 2 lens hoods, 2 plastic weather bags, batteries, lens cleaner, memory cards, 1 light meter, car keys, phone and various accessories. Pens and a small notebook in your bag for this shoot. I appreciated how small it is but how much it holds. My only complaint is the same as any other backpack - better grip on the straps. I like being able to roll up extra straps and tie in place so it's neater and doesn't get in the way of my work. All round a good buy for an affordable work bag. Like all camera backpacks, it's a bit uncomfortable for someone my size, but if you're over 100 pounds and 5 feet it won't be bulky at all. I wouldn't say it's a holdall but it was spent a day on a lobster boat for a professional shoot and is in perfect condition.
