Lowepro Flipside 400 AW

[LinaBrundell]

I have a 150-500, will it fit in that bag?

@LinaBrundell Not Sure But I think You better buy Fast Pack 350 :)

Очень хороший рюкзак, только что купил и затолкал в него все что нужно ) . Очень удобно, вмещает две камеры с насаженными объективами и есть места для дополнительных объективов и вспышки. Обидно только что убрали кармашек для дополнительной мелочи сбоку рюкзачка как в модели Lowepro Flipside 300 ((( понятно что есть большой карман сзади, но два кармашка с сеткой для воды или еще чего то наврядли будут мной востребованы а вот мелочи всегда приятно и нужно!

Opening fully loaded feels totally insecure as the bag pitches forward at a precarious angle. Loaded as shown the zip strains to close it up again while you now have the camera you just retrieved to juggle - almost as if the main access flap is 2 inches too small. Sits way high on ones back. All in all I am no so crazy about it, I had read so many good reviews.. May well sell it again as I am not sure I can put up with the shortcomings. Try it loaded before you buy.

love this backpack! sturdy materials, large capacity (perfect for camera with grip) and secure back-entry compartment. the top straps and the front compartment are also very useful for carrying additional personal effects (eg. clothes and books).

keep in mind that if you are around 6 feet tall, it may be not so comfortable to wear. a very well done product!

@ge0ma5 I had heard this elsewhere and was a little weary of getting one but I'm 6'4" and find this bag really comfy with around 14 pounds of gear in it.

@bfnded I think that the torso length is crucial to valuate the best-fitting backpack. With a product like this, with belt straps, the weight should be settle on your lombar area (the shoulder straps should just balance the weight on your back). So, if you have a long torso, the backpack will fall in your lower back... Try a solid backpack for trekking and you will know what I'm talking about. Anyway... this backpack is for sure a great product!

I have this backpack for 1 year now, it's great!!

I use it for my Sony VX2000 and Nikon D70S with 2 lenses and everything fits. The tripod holder and raincover is also great! Wears comfortable, even if I walked with it for like a hour.

I got this bag few days ago...great value for money, and very well designed...10/10

The TSA will love to go through this puppy

[LoveLyricalRideX]

They should put a extra compartment for laptops users as-well?

[MantraCosmica]

does the allweather cover work in case of snow? is the DryZone200 better in that case?

[bellci]

Gorgeous backpack.

[seanmcbay]

The Flipside seems awesome, I just need to decide which one to get now. The 200, 300, or 400?

[sasktank]

@seanmcbay --- i have the flipside 300 --- i find the side pocket to be too small---the waist belt is to thin -- and the tripod foot extends below the bottom so i cant ride my atv seated without it lifting the tripod up and bonking me on the head---but i do love the swing around feature----so im going to get the flipside 400 with the better waist strap

im hoping these bags, no matter what brand they are, are also slash proof. sometimes, weather is not much of a concern. other people with bad intentions are always a high concern.

いいねぇｗ

これ買おうっと！

[Crisstinell]

I find it sort of uncomfortable to get access to your gear... I do like the fact that you can carry some of your non-photographic stuff, though

[roundskatewheels]

I don't use SLR cameras. However, I do have a Canon H$40 camcorder. I am also a student a lug a 3+ inch binder to school.

Is it possible to partition the walls inside to accomodate the camcorder at the top, while providing space in the bottom for the binder? Plus, will I be able to carry more stuff like a small lunch and notebook??????

I love my flipside 400..I can fit a 200-400 en 70-200 nikkor +d3/d2hs in there !

[noobhunter3000]

I got my 400 AW today and I really like it! It's the perfect backpack for a photographer who wants to know his equipment safety. Especially the little extras like the hidden tripod-holder or the rainprotection are great!

I've got it for around 100 Euros, that's okay

5*

[evasmc]

congratulation.

is backpack protected from the rain with tripod on?

[noobhunter3000]

Normally not, because the rainprotection fits very tight to the backpack (see 1:30), but if you have a smaller tripod (travelling-edition or how this things are called ;o), it will work. I tried it 2 minutes ago

[evasmc]

thank you, thats what i assumed.

it rains here in florida. i guess i'm going to have to carry tripod in my hands when it rains.

[seanmcbay]

@evasmc It will not fit with a tripod attached.

[wojnarowski12]

@evasmc no.

[TomkidA]

Can you put a sweater or something in it ?

[SpeedFreakNO]

I have this backpack and it works very well! The opening in the back system works as well as announced for me, even with a full backpack. With a tripod on top I have to use my thigh for backup, but that's not a problem.

I have to mount my tripod on top as it's too big for the mount on the back, but that's where I put my folded up fleece jacket, so it works very well.

There is also room enough for food and enough beverage for a days trip.
