Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great daypack, not a big lugger of gear.

I bought this for two reasons; I needed a new set for a week long photography trip in New Mexico and am always looking for the "perfect" photography package. When it arrived it seemed smaller than I expected. the size of objects floating on a white background. I thought 350 would be more. But for shorter trips, like day trips or weekend trips with specific destinations, this is a great package. I was able to get two Rebel bodies, one with a Canon 100-400 and one with a kit lens, and a third small lens in the main compartment. I had to strap my 100mm Prime Macro to the outside of his Lowepro case. Inside I could stash batteries, chargers, filters, snacks, a hat, gloves and a headlamp. A backpack, even fully loaded, is comfortable for long hikes. The access flap on the back seems odd if you've used a lot of backpacks, but trust me if you're one of them. Whoever photographs landscapes or wildlife and needs to put down a backpack and change lenses or something, at least if you put the backpack back on the dirty part, it won't bump into your back. We spent two hours in the curtain and there were some pretty ugly "stickers" in that area that stuck to everything but when the pack was put down they didn't catch on the straps or the back of the pack. pack too. Clear lines, pleasant color combination. The camera compartment is light and bright, allowing black cameras and accessories to be easily seen. Some dividers even have small Velcro pockets for small items. If I could I would give it 4.5 stars because it's so small, but that's not Lowepro's fault. I also wish there was a mounting point for a full-size tripod, but that wasn't a deal breaker. Not many backpacks work well with tripods. A monopod fits in the water bottle pocket. All in all a pretty cool package for a day or weekend trip. Not perfect, but pretty cool.
