Review on Lowepro Flipside 500 Camera Backpack by Liang Chi-en ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The product did not disappoint, the quality pleases.

The backpack is quite comfortable. I wear the equipment listed above every day. The weight with this load is 9 kg, but due to the waist belt it is not as difficult as it might seem at first glance Some pros: Relatively roomy. Fits (in my case) (photo 1): 1) fotik (crop) with regular 18-55mm 2) 55-300mm 3) 35mm 4) flash 5) portable video camera (panasonic HC-V730) 6) well, on the little things: sunglasses in a case, a rag, a cap, sweets))) Above, in a separate bag (attached with Velcro), I have a power bank and spare batteries for the flash (photo 2) 2 liter thermos in the middle There are pockets for memory cards in the back (photo 3 and 4) Some cons: 1) The waist belt loosens over time. Have to stretch several times a day 2) The material of the inner pocket in the back (photo 5) is not very reliable. I put the battery (photo 6) from the camera there and he (the battery) began to make a hole in this pocket (photo 7). I had to tape it up. So, it’s better not to put something angular there (also, if the front compartment (where any small things) is full, then the partitions will rise higher than they should. Because of this, they will begin to scratch this inner pocket in the back (photo 5)) 3) 3 months after the purchase, the key strap broke (photo 8). Although, of course, in any atelier you can sew it back on without any problems, you should still keep in mind that it is not very reliable.
