I have after much deliberation and reading reviews given my husband the Lowepro Flipside 400 AW for Christmas. He is now completely thrilled, and for the following reasons: 1. Plenty of room for everything you want to lug so and a smart interior layout. 2. Good workmanship, but that I had actually expected at Lowepro (the last camera bag was also for this manufacturer and has proven itself well). 3. The backpack was allowed with a skiing holiday and has proved to be absolutely fit for sports, because he well and stuck on one side and the weight optimally distributed, but disabled on the other hand, in any way. 4. During a fall from a high speed turned out that the camera equipment is optimally protected by the bag - and my husband and the back! 5. Nice touches such as the tripod mount and the rain hood can also be found. 6. The anti-theft concept convinced, at the same time the good handling. So it was a good decision to have ordered this backpack!
