I'm looking for suggestions for a small backpack to handle two 35mm bodies with lenses attached and 2 more small lenses plus filters, hoods and film. With so many options available I'm asking for help to narrow down the field. Hopeing to stay under $100. Thanks
Under $100! Good luck. Maybe a used Lowepro pack.
Great shout, that... I present to you, the Lowepro Mini Trekker AW!
Enough room for 2x Nikon F2s, 4x normal sized lenses, 1x big old vintage 200mm, Gossen Lunasix/SBC, several films, a box of filters, more filters and cable release in the inside lid pockets and even more tat in the outside lid pockets!
It even has a fold out bit on the front so you can strap a tripod to it!
All this Velcro-ey, padded movable compartment goodness cost me £22.99 in the UK, not including the £5 shipping for a bag that had only had light use. Barg-win!
Honestly non-biased and yet slightly tenuous comment: My wife works for the company that owns Lowe Alpine which was the parent company that Lowepro was offshoot, offshot.. Offshotted from. Although Lowepro and Lowe Alpine are separate entities (and have been since the 80s), they both design products that will protect your stuff while you throw it in the snow up the side of a mountain! Honestly non-biased, because I buy used and pay as little as possible for anything because I'm a cheapskate!
