Back to Mantona.
Here are a few pros and cons that I absolutely still have to get rid:
- The carrying strap on the top is unfortunately directly attached to a flap. Here the zipper has to withstand all the weight. For me, this is the absolute weak point when the zipper pulls. Expensive equipment should not be stowed so here.
- The two side pockets are secured with an additional clip buckle. However, the large main compartment not. So if this fails zipper falls here also possibly the equipment out. Believe me, that's all happened already, I can confirm that as a photographer.
+ The backpack straps can be hidden behind a wall, so you can use it as a bag.
- When carrying the backpack is right on the back. So you should grab him so that sharp objects or bulges not always push in the same place. Is very uncomfortable on long walks.
Conclusion: I have concerns with the zippers that are not additionally secured by a clip buckle. So here caution. The Lowepro Fastpack 350 I can recommend more. Here you realize that more experience is in the details.
Addendum on 29/07/2014: Unfortunately, as feared, the zipper really torn and can no longer be close, because even a few teeth had to believe in it. Therefore, there is rather 4 stars now only two.
