bags

Adventure-oriented backpacks make up one of the hottest segments of the camera bag market at the moment. The Lowepro Flipside Sport AW 20L is the newest addition to their outdoor line. We took it into the woods and through a variety of different shooting situations to see if it's as big on brains as it is on toughness.What Is it?

LowePro's Flipside Sport line of bags are designed for taking all the gear you might need on a big hike through the wilderness — and then some. They not only have space for your camera, lenses, and associated extras, but also have a special pouch designed for a hydration reservoir, so that you can stop yourself collapsing from dehydration along the way.

At some point in the magnificent future, we'll all be free of the cables we lug everywhere — but until that happens, we're stuck trying to organize them and keep them from turning into a tangled mess in our gear bags. To help with this, Think Tank has just beefed up their cable management pouch line, adding extra features to keep you on top of your wires.

M-ROCK has announced four new bags, all designed around a similar configuration, but at varying sizes. All four bags of the 5000 series are double access, and can be opened from either the back or top; and are all configured for holding at least one body, two lenses, and a flash.
