 Slingshot 200 Worked Well on Alaskan Cruise! July 3, 2009
Darl A. Buck
My Lowepro Slingshot 200 all weather backpack worked very well. I could swing it around and get the gear I needed. I have had headaches from the camera strap around my neck on hikes so I wanted to try a backpack. At age 54 it worked much better. I still had some aches with a long hike, but no headaches. If you carry more gear, this can carry camera, extra lens, flash, small handycam recorder, and all the extra items for using them. I lightened the pack of extras when I knew I would not use all the gear and that helped with the weight.
Great Backpack July 1, 2009

This is a great backpack for camera. Would highly recommend it to all photography folks. Lots of padded little places for both camera and lens and very easy to get at.
 Great for hiking/walking June 28, 2009

Well constructed and handy to use while urban or country hiking, I like this bag for its comfortable strap and unique access to the camera.
It's true that there is no camera bag that's good for all uses and this is no exception to that. There are not enough pockets for gadgets and stuff for me, but it really is great for a specific outing where you know exactly what you need. There's enough room for a good sized dSLR (I use an Olympus E-30) and a number of lenses, some filters, batteries, and a flash. The top pocket is fairly spacious, but a small divider would have been handy there too.
While it's great for pulling the camera out when in the sling position, when you want to change lenses you have to unstrap and rearrange things. It works best for situations where you will be carrying a specific lens on the camera body and have the others along just in case. I can also bring the flash in the top pocket if I want.
The one shoulder strap is very comfortable and when the cross-connect strap (my term) is connected, it feels very secure and doesn't flop around if you're going over rough terrain. I'm a big guy and hip straps usually don't fit me well, but this bag's setup works great for me.
A nice feature is the sliplock attachments for other goodies - there are 3 of them available. The water bottle version is most appreciated (I have two), and I can add a lens or other attachment as desired.
The 350 was not available when I bought mine - but this one will continue to be my choice for being out and about without a giant bag.
All-in-all, a very good bag - well constructed and it's a very comfortable setup.
Great bag , but not perfect June 24, 2009

Great bag, the sling is very convenient to get your camera quickly. The quality of materials is very good, the cost is right. Only problem is the one shoulder sling design. For a whole day travel with a full bag, one of your shoulder would get sore really fast. I am looking for a full backpack design that will circumvent this problem. Considering a Fastback 250 or maybe the Primus AW.
Excellent walk around bag June 14, 2009

Lowepro SlingShot 300 All-Weather Camera Bag (Black)
I have many camera bags (as I imagine most photographers do) but none of them fit my need for a 'walking around' bag that would hold my D300 with a 24-70mm lens attached, a 70-200mm lens, an 11-18mm lens, an SB-900 speedlight, extra memory cards, batteries and more. The Lowepro SlingShot 300 is large enough to hold all that equipment yet small enough to carry around comfortably and the way it rotates from backpack to front access without having to take it off is genius. The SlingShot 300 has become my everyday bag and as the man said I 'don't leave home without it'.
