I currently have a Lowepro 400AW, fantastic in some ways and not so in others.
Fantastic- Light, rugged and I really like the access via the back. After sales service is fantastic as one of the buckles is too small and prone to breaking.
Not so - It's billed as an outdoors bag so where is the separate compartment for my waterproofs? There is a separate compartment which looks like a glorified school bag and has been no use whatsoever for since I bought it, I don't need pens, paper etc etc. My bag is now coming to an end because I have overfilled this pouch and bust the zip.
What I want is a fairly lightweight bag, no fussy bits, a compartment to store a camera with 100-400 lens, travel scope and binoculars, a separate compartment to store everything else I may need for the day and I would prefer the rear access to my camera compartment.
Can anyone suggest a bag that would be suitable? I really like Lowepro but think their design team need a good talking to and they have ignored my emails to that effect? Thanks.
