QUOTE(xandman @ Mar 11 2008, 01:36 PM) Ya. I too was a bit confused about the reply. Shoulder bags, slingshots all sling types as long as you sling the strap over one shoulder or over your shoulder across your chest aka Lowepro Slingshot models. Backpacks lain cerita lar.... @ebernie For me its sling bags all the way (Lowepro Slingshot, CrUMpler Million Dollar Homes) as Its easier for me to retrieve my gears. But Lowepro has produced a backpack style which has the Lowepro Slingshot camera retrieval method which does not require you to take out you bag. Thats the Lowepro Fastpack... That Jenova All Weather looks like it was styled after the Lowepro Slingshot series. But its good in the sense it does not look like a camera bag which will come in handy when travelling to high Crime rate areas which prey on tourist. |

QUOTE(ebernie @ Mar 11 2008, 02:19 PM) Ha ha sorry. Meant messenger-style bags (like the million dollar series from crumpler). These sling over the shoulder too right? Yea, Improved backpacks sounds like a good description of them......I think of the slingshots as 'improved' backpacks Already own a large backpack which I leave in my room. This holds all my gear including a laptop. But need one to carry around when walking. How many lenses you wanna carry? If you going to carry a medium zoom mounted and an extra wide lens, I think models like Toploader-Zoom AW from Lowepro can fit your bill. Or a 3,4,5Million Dollar home if you're not intending to carry all your gears... |

QUOTE(jady @ Mar 11 2008, 04:54 PM) ya i saw that thinktank rotation 360 before... seriously the idea is good but it looks kinda ugly when u rotate the beltpack to front, leave a big hole on ur backpack. I like any bag that can lessen the shoulder burden and able to retrieve camera fast I think AW Stands for the All Weather sheath cover that extends to cover the whole bag. But from what I see, the new Lowepros have these weather sealed zippers and hydro resistant materials for the construction...... Lowepro Primus AW also have a side opening for you to access camera without taking the bag off your shoulder. But cannot change lens lor... I think Fastpack is better than SlingShot AW but why FastPack dont have AW? |

QUOTE(jady @ Mar 11 2008, 07:54 PM) yes... AW is for that cover. The Primus AW is constructed by water resistant outer fabric but still have the AW cover to protect from rain and sand. So it will be nicer if FastPack comes with the AW cover too... Double protection sounds good. My Crumpler 7Million is just water resistant. Doesn't have a water resistant AW Cover. TRYING TO pry the AW From my cheapo bag to see if it can fit...... |

Like a monopod? u know the 2 'rubber' black 'strap' at the back of the bag? i know its for carrying tripods but how on earth do u use it?? i've never figured that 1 out.... do u force the tripod in ? and the rubber thing expands over time? im using the aw300 btw... |
