180 AW -hervorragend -khakibraun not just as a camera bag

Since an SLR is not only bigger but also heavier than a compact camera, the bag should not only serve the purpose of accommodating the photographic equipment, but also allow the omission of another pocket. The wallet, phone, keys, glasses cases and mundane things such as handkerchiefs, etc. are essential if you are traveling as a rule. Men do not get that often in their jacket or trouser pockets under, women are more likely.

Thus, my claim was on the bag slightly extended.

Photo equipment:

Canon EOS 600D with kit lens (yet; o), a 50 fixed focal length, a 50-200 telephoto. Charging cable, spare battery, memory card, operating instruction for the early, gray cards, filters.

Other items such as described above.

After diligent reading reviews I surveyed the Lowepro 160,170, 180 and 190AW.

The 160 and 170 were too small for me. What some users have Respect stowed their description by all in the 170AW. I was too tight. I want me expensive lenses do not "squeeze" and refer all things fast and convenient, and have a buffer in order to accommodate unforeseen can.

The 190 was me clearly too large. From the scope and storage space. It's oversized for my equipment.

The 180 is perfect for my purposes. Please note that the things I get easily and with some air under. I have in a bag all in access.

The quality is excellent and the bag very practical. There are sufficient subdivisions and compartments in which even the little things such as memory cards can be safely stowed. Important to me were the mesh pockets on the outsides. Here you can easily stow a 0.5 each PET bottle, which I think is very important to speed.

The material is durable, visually appealing and durable and hardly susceptible to dirt. The shoulder strap comfortably and the bag does not unravels an even inevitable when rubbing against clothes when worn. The zippers are well consistently, but go sinnigerweis also not too light on. The rain cover is quickly installed with a little practice and very effective. The bag is sealed and dustproof equipment.

Use in the city, in the woods and on the beach-all no problem!

Den of some criticized the "soft" ground I can not confirm. In my small Lowepro the soil is better covered, no doubt, would have the 180 good standing, but as negative I have not felt so far. But now, I have not a 7 kilo equipment. Ultimately, however, it is always a matter of dealing, I think. I never put my bags usually me great momentum or greater height somewhere or plan.

The 180AW I use now for 8 months, am very satisfied and have yet to find no shortage, and did not feel that is a defect occur.

It is, as with my first small Lowepro, just good and very thoughtful quality.

Prima also the choice of colors. The mix of khaki brown / black is very pleasing and I'm also happy to pay a few euros more. : O)

This is certainly not a very technical assessment, but I'm sure there are even more people who value things not only for its technical or functional benefit for themselves.

After all, one such a case many hours on his shoulder and side, and there should fit it all, otherwise you do not like to use it.
