Just ordered one of these. First time watching your channel - love your work. No frills but warm and engaging and very thorough. Love your neat set up as well.
I presently use the lowepro shoulder bag. it's nice because it gives me instant access to everything i need. it's down sides are by the end of a day of shooting I can't wait to take it off. all the weight is on one side of your body most of the time if you bed down to shoot something it has the habit of sliding down in front of you. I do like the fact that I have a pocket for my sim cards batteries and microfiber wipe cloths. As well as storage under the camera for an extra lens and its expandable enough to store my longer lenses as well. But this backpack looks like it will be more of an advantage when I go off on my motorcycle adventures.
I thought this bag would do it and I love how it looks and how sturdy it is, but unfortunately it proved to be too small for me as a (mostly) videographer. Everything was in too tight and could get my gimbal to fit nicely without putting to much pressure on the stuff. I'm going to try out the F-stop Ajna next!
Hi mate. I just pickup up a new bag on special under your recommendation. The bag is super cool. Thank you, this will be perfect for our round world travels next year.
Nice review. You've also helped me to make up my mind and buy this. I was wondering about the size when walking around with all my gear in and you nailed it! Thanks
Another quality video as well as a great review. It's what I've come to expect since subscribing to your channel. LowePro does make a quality product and there should be no argument there. However, until camera backpack manufacturers start producing a backpack with a dedicated hydration area, and I'm not referring to a "water bottle" pouch or a crappy exterior side pocket that doesn't work, I will stick to my Osprey and 5.11 Tactical backpacks with Peak Design camera cubes.
I appreciate the reply Thomas and you raised some excellent points! So you are using that awesome 5.11 Tactical with an Osprey for hydration, and the Camera cubes for your gear and just putting all that in the one bag? Sounds like a really great option for those extended hikes and stuff, plus offers crazy versatility as well....
@@Jason_Hermann Thanks for responding Jay. I actually use an Osprey pack for hiking because of the frame build and ability to distribute weight evenly and comfortably. I use the 5.11 for my mountain biking/hike and bike adventures. You know how photographers are, we have bags like women have purses. 😆😉 Seriously though, I appreciate you taken the time to respond. Have an amazing day.
Fantastic video! Looks like something close to what I need. Would you recommend this if you were traveling and need to keep it under your seat? I’m not comfortable putting my camera bag in the overhead and the seat was the next best thing.
You missed the "drop down" with the waist strap, to access the back department. Handy feature, if you need something away from the quick access pockets.
GREAT video. i have this on and the 350 also. the 450 strangely fits better than the 350. I use the 450 to put my tripo 50 cm most of tripods are, inside the backpack eheh because the camera and lens can go somewhere else then the middle. So i can take the tripod out without opening the all bag also. You might ask, but why in hell should someone carry a big tripod INSIDE a backpack when you can carry it in 3 ways, left, righ or at the center??? Well...if i have the space i do it, its better in the citys, you dont scream "photographer" to the others and i keep the bag clean of straps and items if i dont need the all space. ALSO this bag can be uses for a non photography scenario, removing all the separators. When I dont use a tripod i take the Protactic 350 but in fact the 450 feels better in your back. Also note that with some memory muscle training you can access the lateral opening to take out the camera without putting the bag on the ground.
cool video, thank you! I have been searching for a bag for a few months now (I have too much gear for my so-called "large" backpack)... The other brands seem a bit expensive or too big, or both. I will try this.
Would you also recommend this backpack as a travel backpack that also offers the possibility to fit in a rainjacket, food, bottles, clothing and all the other common travel gear? Of course the photography gear would get cut down then. I’ve been thinking a lot about this backpack in the last weeks but wasn’t sure about the versatility on longer backpacking trips. Would love to know your thoughts about it’s versatility!
Well it does not have the most space when fully loaded with all my camera and laptop gear. We are talking several lenses, laptop, chargers, gimbal and so fourth... So, having clothes for travel is not going to work in my opinion with the amount of gear I have. You would need a larger bag or another bag unfortunately depending on how much camera and computer gear you have of course.. I'm speaking from my perspective...
Awesome bag .. i am looking fr a bag which can fit a drone, gimble and a camera .. snd thus i think is a good option, ecen better than the peter mckinnon one
Hey Jay, greetings from France. Thanks for the comprehensive video. I currently own a Sony backpack, the LCSBP3. I generally put in there my A7 III along with 2-3 lenses, the Air 2s, the Rsc2 (thanks to your video on it that convinced me to buy it), a PC when I have to travel and few additional accessories. In terms of how the items fit in the bag, it's not super ideal. Even though their is room for customization, I often find the drone and other items at the bottom of the bag when opening it after a day of walking around. Is this an issue solved with this bag? Also, I can see that we are putting almost the same things in this bag, I only have the drone on top, do you think there is room for that in the Lowepro? And finally I find that, when packed with all these things, my Sony bag feels super heavy like I'm carrying my whole family in there. I know that the items inside are not particularly lightweight but is the weight allocated differently on the lowepro or the very structure made in a way that would feel a bit less heavy on the ahoulders/back. Sorry for the long message. Thanks a lot for all the videos!! Keep up. The good work 😁 Julien
Great video. Would be nice if show us how you put there your gimbal. Looking for a bag in which I can carry my 24-70 2.8 mounted on NIKON Z6 + DJI RCS2 gimbal...
Great review and excellent close-ups. I'm thinking of getting this or the Pro Trekker but I'm thinking the Trekker is just a bit too bulky and squarish.
@@edgardbmedia I just started using S-Log2 on my A7C, but on the FX3 and A7IV I was using PP8 S-Log3 and PP11 S-Cinetone... S-Log-3 would be best for the dynamic range outside in my opinion, but if you don't want to grade the video S-Cinetone looks great right off the camera!
The 16" macbook is the only thing I'm not 100% sure on, but somebody here in the comments said it fits... I have the 14" and it fits with some extra room. All the other gear, no problem!
do you think this is too much for a 24-70, 70-200, and some other prime, and one full frame body? (plus laptop) would like something to take to japan with me, both for travel and for carrying around (leaving some stuff at the hotel). was thinking this could be useful to also take a few travel things non-camera (you know, extra underwear, socks, shirt) but i'm not sure how reconfigurable the dividers are.
Thank you for the awesome review!! Looks like it would be perfect for my use. I have a question if you don't mind? 1) Could you give the width & length dimensions of the side zippered opening for access to the interior of the bag? I'd like to use it for my Sony PXW-X70 camcorder. Thanks again.... Great job. 😊👍
@@Jason_Hermann Thank you for checking this for me!! That should do the trick for my camcorder. I'm going to go ahead an order one. Thanks again, appreciate your help and looking forward to more of your video's. 👍😊
Anytime, and best of luck with it! I'm still using mine everyday and the bag has not let me down in any way so far just to let you know ;) I'm sure at some point a zipper will fail, but no signs of anything yet....
I'm currently a highschool student I do photography as well Arial and just using normal camera was thinking of getting this so I could maybe use it for school and my photography. How do you think it would be if I carried a few notebooks, folders and possibly a textbook?
Well it has a laptop pouch so you could fit some notebooks, but a thick text book would be too big for the laptop pouch I'm thinking and you would need to put that in the main part of the bag. Not ideal in my opinion, but you could make it work... They make other bags with more compartments for books and stuff which might be a better option for you.
Hi Jay, great review but I see they do a smaller version as well. Can you tell be roughly the difference in the 450aw and the 350aw or have you only had hands on with the 450aw? Eg. Would I get 2 Sony camera bodies and 4 Sony lenses (90 mm 70/300 24/105) in the smaller bag with room for batteries etc. Maybe one of your followers has purchased the smaller bag and can give me some advice. Cheers.
Hi Linda, I think the 350aw would be big enough for your needs. I wanted to also fit a gimbal in mine which is why I went with the larger version ;) Thanks for the kind words and have a good day, Jay
@@Jason_Hermann morning Jay, thanks for the quick response, I think I’ll go for the 350aw, or maybe I need to get the gimbal I’ve been thinking of gettingand go for the 450aw, 🤔 decisions, decisions. It looks a great spacious backpack though and probably the best Ive seen. Cheers.
This backpack takes my Sony A1 with 200-600 lens with hood reversed, it also takes my Sony A7Riv with 100-400 reversed at the same time. Loads of pouches that will fit all your accessories and you can strap a tripod onto sides, also it will take a laptop. It also comes with a pouch that will strap on anywhere on the bag.
I don't know of any that are this style James. They do make this amazing Pelican cases that are environmental sealed and hardened though. See here: bhpho.to/3pmBx8x
@@Jason_Hermann Really impressive the way to stay-on-top-of comments and it's very much appreciated ! - I just purchased the Lowepro LP37099 DroneGuard BP 250. I did follow your link, but of course this particular video is a year old... I do have a drone also. Hence the choice, which I hope is a reasonable one...
Yeah, it does have a bit of weight to it, but that is what makes it so rugged and beefy which I like. It is a great point worth considering though for sure ;)
Where/How can we buy the extra Lowepro accessory attachments? I have the bag itself and the attachments that come by default, but I want to have multiple of some of them 🤔
Hey there, That Tenba bag looks nice. However, I don't like how the archer straps are on the extra pocket like that. If you attach stuff the stress will go to the zipper... Other that that it looks pretty good without actually using the zippers and stuff. It's really hard to say without hands-on with the bag. As far as missing the extra pocket, yes I do a little for sure. But, I have extra little and larger bags that I can easily attach to my bag via the straps everywhere. I have a water bottle holder I use for hiking, and many others. They make low profile attachment bags as well, for when needed. When I do need to pack somme close, I just use that top area via the flap and stuff it in. It works, but you really need a few extra pockets for travel. A lot of the time I just have my laptop and 1 camera, maybe two lenses so I prefer slimmest option. Makes going thru doors much easier and in crowded areas. Sometimes it's fully loaded with two cameras, 4 lenses and gimbal, batteries, ect.... I've had mine for a while now and it's still 100% which is incredible based on the other high quality bags I have had over the years. When this bag fails I will get the next best available for my current needs and see what happens :) I hope that helps, Jay
Can someone please measure the laptop compartment depth? I have 15.6" laptop (38cm wide) so it exceeds the "nominal" dimensions stated by Lowepro and I'm not sure whether it will fit. Thanks
It should fit, but just barely with the camera attached. I'm thinking with the camera on the top side and the lens pointing down to the ground inside the bag if that makes sense? If you don't have the camera attached to the lens it will definitely fit and with both cameras plus extra room for more lenses or accessories.
Right now I have 3 gimbals that I use.... DJI Ronin RSC 2 Gimbal: geni.us/742rxa , Manfrotto MVG300XM Module Gimbal: geni.us/oQDweau , and the ZHIYUN Crane M2S: geni.us/xDlVen
@@ryce80s It's a fantastic bag, but the pocket for a laptop is not that big... I did a quick search and this not many 17" backpack style options these days. Perhaps go for a laptop bag that has some extra pockets instead? I used to have a nice Alienware backpack for my 17" gaming laptop I had years ago for example... It had extra room for other stuff and perhaps something like that will work for you if nothing else comes up.
@@Jason_Hermann yep your right just might do that could use my small camera bag to put inside bag for padding only use one zoom lens n camera for now. Thanks 🙏
Yeah for sure! Any more than an hour and I would put the waist pack on. I just don't do that as often with this pack. If it's a long trek I usually take a smaller hiking bag.
Watched your entire video and saw it does it a tripod. I have that bag and never knew. Started looking for a new one but stopping that now. Really appreciate it!
Fits a 16" macbook perfectly in case anyone was wondering
I was actually, thanks for the info!! I just ordered a new 14" for myself ;)
Could it fit 17" too? Got a lg Gram
Damn that's what I really wanted to know because I ordered the 16" M1 Pro Max. Thanks!
You answered my question before I even thought of it. Thank you!!
That's amazing. Thank you!

Thank you very much :)
Mad video bro. It's either this guy or the Tenba Axis 20L for me. Haven't made up my mind yet
Can't go wrong with either Mitch!!
I'd recommend to stop down your aperture, it's too wide open and shallow to really see anything at times.
Own it, love it!

When this bag fails I will get the next best available for my current needs and see what happens :) I hope that helps, Jay
Excellent and informative review.
Just curious, was your old Tenba backpack the 24L Shootout?
Thanks.
Yes it was/ still is :)
Hi there. Would you have any info about it being airport friendly?
I'm sorry, but I do not have any info in that regard.
no external bottle holders make it a no go for me 😢
Whoah! $360? Holy cow.
Mine was $240 and the bag comes in several versions keep in mind...
Good work
Thanks :)
Can someone please measure the laptop compartment depth? I have 15.6" laptop (38cm wide) so it exceeds the "nominal" dimensions stated by Lowepro and I'm not sure whether it will fit. Thanks
Do you think it could fit an A1 with 200-600mm and an RX10?
It should fit, but just barely with the camera attached. I'm thinking with the camera on the top side and the lens pointing down to the ground inside the bag if that makes sense? If you don't have the camera attached to the lens it will definitely fit and with both cameras plus extra room for more lenses or accessories.
Great videos! What’s the litre of this bag?
Can it fit Sony 200-600 mm lens?
Yes, but a bit tight with the camera mounted... I had it with the camera towards the top in the center area...
Pleas can you tell me wich size your loptop 13 or 15 ?
15"
Is it just me that the links don’t work? help
I just tried the link tot he backpack and it works for me. Which link are you having an issue with?
what gimbal you use?
Right now I have 3 gimbals that I use.... DJI Ronin RSC 2 Gimbal: geni.us/742rxa , Manfrotto MVG300XM Module Gimbal: geni.us/oQDweau , and the ZHIYUN Crane M2S: geni.us/xDlVen
I have a legion 5 laptop... idk if this bag can fit it?
That should be a 15" laptop, so yes it should certainly fit Kyle ;)
@@Jason_Hermann Thank you for the info!
It’s looks to be the same size as the Think Tank Glass Taxi.
btw if you can find the same one on aliexpress for a lower price
Do you think it’ll fit a 17.3 gaming laptop? I need to fit both my camera n laptop
No I don't think so, because it's made for a 15", and 16" Macbook Pro just barely fits...
@@Jason_Hermann awe ok trying to find a bag lowepro is highly rated. Thank you for reply!
@@ryce80s It's a fantastic bag, but the pocket for a laptop is not that big... I did a quick search and this not many 17" backpack style options these days. Perhaps go for a laptop bag that has some extra pockets instead? I used to have a nice Alienware backpack for my 17" gaming laptop I had years ago for example... It had extra room for other stuff and perhaps something like that will work for you if nothing else comes up.
@@Jason_Hermann yep your right just might do that could use my small camera bag to put inside bag for padding only use one zoom lens n camera for now. Thanks 🙏
Does it fit a Sony a7iii with Tamron 28-75, a dji mavic mini pro 3, and a roninS gimbal?
I don't think you will be able to get ronin S in there also unless the handle comes off... I had my RSC2 on there with a bunch of other stuff though.
how did we work with out all that junk?
I don't know!
can it fit a 17inch laptop too?
Ordered me one after looking long time for my best choice backpack gonna be here tomorrow. Thx for the review. #deralterego
Hope you enjoy it!
@@Jason_Hermann yes received it today as expected. Its a great bag. Fits my two go pro and sony a7siii and sony rx100m7. And some accesoiries
What gymbal is that? Will it fit a Ronin S
Ronin SC, and yes an RS will fit!!
is backpack bottom hard or soft?
It's the same material as the rest of the bag, so I would say soft.
Can you carry on a plane?
Yes
Just curious if you are still rocking this laptop.
I have a new M1 14" nowadays...
Does also a newer 16 inch MacBook Pro fit in this Backpack?
I'm not sure, sorry. My 15" fits pretty snug, so I'm thinking probably not.
why they changed the zippers?
No idea, but my zippers are still holding up great on this bag which I use every single day...
can put crane 3 lab?
That thing is huge, I'm not 100 Sure, sorry... Does the handle fold down?
I take it that you don't spend 12+ hours straight with this pack loaded. If you do, you would want that waist belt.
Yeah for sure! Any more than an hour and I would put the waist pack on. I just don't do that as often with this pack. If it's a long trek I usually take a smaller hiking bag.

You just sell me this thank you
lol zip your bag shut and it wont fall out. Not the bags fault dude
Yes, ofcourse it's my fault! However, not the best design for someone like me 😉
too expensive..
Does it hold a tripod?
Yes
Watched your entire video and saw it does it a tripod. I have that bag and never knew. Started looking for a new one but stopping that now. Really appreciate it!
