Customer Reviews

Better than the competition
I shopped a lot for slig bags as it seemed the way to go with the way I use my camera. The bag is light and very comfortable. The details that they worked out for it makes it impossible to beat. The only reason for not giving it a 5 is that when you swing it around front it is a little high for my long arms. Plus, I grade tough.Would not trade for the competition.

Best Bag I own--really comfortable to carry
This is a wonderful camera bag. I have owned a number of various bags trying to find something which is comfortable, fits enough for a photo trip, is easy to access and looks good also.
The Slingshot 200 is the one - I carry a 5D with lens attached, and 1-2 additional lens as well as cards, flash, wallet, packet tripod or Gorillapod, etc. The most important characteristics are the comfort factor--I can use this all day long with no fatigue--and the ability to remove the camera quickly without taking the bag off.
Totally love this one - I would give it 6 stars if possible. If you have the Canon white lens 70-200 you can squeeze the f4 in but you will need the 300 for anything bigger. I tend to carry the smaller lens such as Canon 35L, 85, 135. If I used the large zooms I would go for the 300 myself.

Great, discreet bag
This bag has enough room for as much gear as you would care to take on a day trip. It's fairly comfortable. What I like about it is that it doesn't SCREAM "Camera bag!". I mean, clearly, if you look closely, it's a little boxy to be a regular student sling-bag, but I think unless a potential robber is pretty familiar with camera bags he's not likely to suspect you of carrying several grand worth of photo goodies.

Furthermore, the bag's features are great. Ample storage pockets, including one designed for memory cards. It's built into the main compartment so when you flip it open it provides easy access.

Also worth noting is the microfiber cloth designed to cover and protect your LCD while in the camera bag. How very thoughtful of you, Lowepro! It's a nice feature, although I don't really use it because I bought some of those plastic stick-on LCD protectors. In my case, or those folks with a Nikon (with the little plastic LCD shields), this feature might not be special.

I really like/need/use the waterproof cover that stores in the bottom. That thing rocks! I had only had the bag for a few days, and was driving out to a portrait job in the POURING down rain. I put this thing on before I ran from my car inside. This was a *torrential* downpour--and my stuff stayed bone dry. If you're into hiking or other outdoor stuff I could also see this being very handy.

This is a great general purpose/ all day bag. If you have gobs of photo gear you want to schlepp around or are doing weddings it's probably not for you though.

Also worth noting, there is no practical way to carry a proper tripod with this bag, except in your hand (I use a Bogen 05XXpro or whatever). This kind of ruins your bag's discreetness because obviously if you've got this behemoth tripod in your hand it stands to reason for the crooks that that slingbag of yours might contain goodies. Of course, you simply can't stuff a decent tripod in any compact camera bag, so that's not really a reflection on the bag, just something to think about. On further reflection, if you ARE carrying around a fairly good size tripod you could probably lay a beatdown on any would-be bag-nippers. So I guess that pretty much cancels out this whole last paragraph.
