Lowepro Flipside Trek BP 350 AW Backpack for DSLR Camera Body & 2-3 Lenses, Gray/Dark Green

2022-09-01T08:33:37

I love this bag! Ample room for an a7iii, 100-400m, 35-70mm, and 35mm lenses. With batteries, charger, tripod, water, and snack. I would definitely buy again, very comfortable to wear. Very good price compared to upmarket alternatives. The fabric/ construction may be slightly lower quality than AER or Chrome or Mission but in my mind, a camera bag isn't going to get beat-up like a "normal" backpack.

This bag is a great kit for a Nikon Z50 with 2 lenses and a Mavic Mini 2 kit. We use this combo set up on fly fishing excursions and the rain cover is great when needed. Size is perfect for travel and straps help carry additional equipment.

This backpack has the right balance of hiking gear and space for mirrorless camera system that includes body and 2-3 lenses. My favorite part of this bag is the opening to access the camera equipment. The opening is about half the height of the bag, which is perfect for a smaller camera system or when you mostly pull out your camera with lens. I like that you don't unzip the entire back of the bag. And then the top section has lots of room for miscellaneous equipment - hat, gloves, microspikes, balaclava, food, another tripod head, etc. Plus you have the front section for more supplies. When you don't need a huge 30-70 liter bag for camping/multi-day hikes, this has worked well to be light but have enough room for everything thing you need for day hikes, both warm and cold. The only somewhat down side is that for a 6 ft 2 in tall person, it can feel a little small for a regular backpack, as I found it wanting to rest at the top of your hips rather than the middle when you have a heavy load and tighten the shoulder and waist straps. But, I'll take that infrequent inconvenience over having a huge bag for not much gear.

Great backpack, lots of room.

A good bag. Much roomier and easier to access than the Fastpak that this replaces. I do wish the hip belt could be removed (I don't carry enough weight for it to be a benefit). I'm also going to modify the front pocket so the "sleeve" area at the front is more usable. Otherwise a very good bag for someone who carries a bit of camera gear with all their usual EDC gubins. It looks and feels pretty rugged, I'll see how it handles the Arizona desert.

I’ve been on a quest for the perfect camera bag. This is as close as I’ve been to this point.

Love the backpack it fits all of my camera gear without being bulky. Would recommend this bag!

Perfect backpack to fill my needs. Wanted something not too big and comfortable to wear on a short hike and snap off a few photos. This bag fills that, very comfortable, enough room for my gear and the style I was looking for. Holds my DSLR, extra lens, filter kit and few spare batteries with room to spare. Top section easily holds some snacks and supplies. Highly recommend.

Great quality with comfortable straps. 2/3 camera gear 1/3 personal gear. Unfortunately the 250 was too small but had a removable waist belt, the 350 is closer to the size I need but the waist belt is not removable.

Nice bag. Comfortable hiking around, the padding on back works well to keep your back from getting too hot. While the bag has some good secondary storage besides your camera, I wish it could hold more if needed like an Atlas bag.

Good comfortable bag. Fits just enough gear. Lowe Pro quality. This is my 5th Lowe Pro bag. Wish Belt came off and straps had D rings to attach straps for a camera.

Excellent pack for carrying my landscape kit. Camera compartment holds my Nikon D500 with attached 16-85mm f3.5-5.6 zoom, 55-200mm f3.5-5.6 zoom, plus accessories. Room for a light rain jacket, lunch and snacks. Pockets for small items plus two side water bottle pockets. Easily attaches a monopod and includes a rain cover. I like it a lot.

The backpack is solid and I like it, but before purchase, I chatted online an Adorama associate and was told that it would easily hold my DSLR, my 100-400 Canon L lens, another lens and assorted accessories. Well, they fit, but just barely, there was nothing easy about finding a way to get them in there safely. That said, it's a quality pack and I like it otherwise.

If you pack smartly, this bag has plenty of room for a day of shooting. My bag is currently stocked with a D7100 with a 16-80mm attached, a D7500 with a 100-400mm attached, a 45mm prime, a speed light, and a handful of extra batteries and accessories. That still leaves the entire top compartment free for other gear, lunch, or a jacket, and you can easily slide a tablet or a 13" laptop in the front pocket if you want an office on the go. Great straps that distribute the weight nicely for hiking, etc. If you have a travel size tripod, it'll strap nicely to the side of the bag. Longer tripods will work too if you don't have far to go, but get a little unwieldy. Will it fit 3 bodies, 6 lenses and a light kit? No. But it's not designed for that. If you set out with a descent plan for what you're going to shoot, this bag will suit all your needs.

Great bag for my purposes. I wanted something to be able to hike with a complete micro 4/3’s kit. It hasn’t disappointed. I have my body with 4 lenses, two flashes with a radio controller, light modifiers, spare batteries and filters all in the camera compartment. This leaves me plenty of room for extra layers, a rain jacket and a lunch.

Has enough room for camera, lenses and drone and personal stuffs - thus my go-to bag. Zippers are not waterproof but this bag comes with rain cover. I absolutely love that camera gears are only accessible at the backside of the bag and not needing to take off the bag. 450 might be large for some body size so try out first at your local camera store for more informed decision

Great product! Works with all my camera equipment and tripod. Made of quality material.

This bag is amazing. They have thought of everything about packing for camera gear. Back pack is well laid out with plenty of padding and pouches everywhere. This was a perfect upgrade for me replacing a shoulder bag. I can quickly put the backpack down grab my gear and start shooting.

Had a LowePro Flipside Sport (orange in color) for nearly a decade and it held up incredibly well. So I went the LowePro route again with this larger backpack. Of course its not as slim as the Sport but its not as large as I expected either, which is a good thing. The main reason I upgraded was to bring along a Mavic drone with me on my treks. The upper compartment perfectly fits the Mavic housed in a hard shell. There is still room for another battery and the spare props fit in the netted pouch inside the compartment. I also like having the drone stuff separate from the camera gear. The only negative is the lack of a proper tripod holder on the side. The smaller Sport had this and I loved it. It also had flaps to help with protection. This backpack has a couple straps but they are not really intended to hold the weight of a tripod. I think given its size and the fact that its meant for photo gear, a tripod holder should be a given.

Great bag for hiking or travel... Unlike many other camera bags, theres plenty of room up top for non camera gear (I don't hike or travel without gear such as the 10 essentials). It carry almost as well as a pure hiking pack, transferring weight to you hips, off your shoulders.A couple nits to pick... The 10" tablet slot doesn't fit my 10" tablet in a case, but it fits in front, so no big deal. Also, depending on how you pack it, some of the dividers can come loose, if they're asked to support gear weight. Packed snug, no problem.Finally, get the right size... I returned the 250, which I thought would be big enough, and got the 350. Although not that much bigger, there's a huge usable difference in size, as with the 350, I can pack medium size lenses (like a 16-35 f4 or 105 f2.8) straight in, so it holds a LOT more than the 250, where these have to be perpendicular, occupying more space.

The 350 would have been perfect for me except it’s too big for my small stature (5’0). Even with all the straps adjusted there was still too much room for the straps to move. I was quite bummed, I like the Flipside Trek series and own the 250. I only wish that there was a 300 version.

I shoot with 4/3 mirrorless equipment and I wanted a backpack that would hold two bodies each attached to a long lens, while having easy access to both in the field.The Flipside Trek 350 was just a bit too small, but the 450 works perfectly. The camera compartment easily holds two Olympus EM1ii bodies side-by-side attached to a 300mm and a 40-150mm with tele-conveter attached to either lens. Still has room for the 12-40,as well. It also fits within most airline carry-on constraints.

I have been looking for a backpack that would hold my camera and all the extras I carry, but still be light , accessible,and look good. I found it with this Lowepro Flipside. It is well made and my camera is safely tucked in next to my back so no one can open my pack up and grab her. Will recommend this to all my camera enthusiast friends!!

Well designed, easy to access without having to set on the ground. Big enough for a day hike with room for my DSLR and 11-24 zoom, 24-105 zoom and 100-400 zoom plus a 1.4x teleconverter, spare batteries, extra memory cards and other accessories. Now that’s just the main compartment, you still have the top compartment that can hold your lunch, jacket, keys and cell. You can also carry a laptop in a dedicated laptop compartment. The two side pockets can be used for water bottles or in conjunction with the straps a travel tripod like my Feisol, that folds down to under 18 inches and support 44 pounds fit perfectly. I’ve bought many camara bags and backpacks over the years and this is by far the best one that I own.

This bag is versatile and easy to use. I can fit my camera and three lenses in it comfortably. It is comfortable to wear and easy to access my gear from while wearing.

Great bag to securely and safely hold your expensive photography gear! Top storage is great for keys, wallet, and phone. Outer side pocket is perfect for water bottles, kids' jackets, etc. The front pocket held my file folders, notebooks, and tablet with ease. Bag is comfortable and relatively lightweight! I'm a small 5' 3" and had no issues carrying this bag loaded with my Sony A7r III, 70-200 mm and 24-70 mm lens. Shipping was quick. Hope this helps you decide on a gear bag!

I bought this pack to replace a well worn Photo Hatchback 22L which I have been using for years now and it is a perfect replacement. Although about the same size, it seems more robust and has a well designed back support for hiking. The multiple compartments afford space for your camera gear in the back along with two pockets at the top and front for an iPad and misc. other items needed on a day trip. Love this bag and looking forward to breaking it in on an upcoming trip.

Great product, although after receiving it, I realized it was too small for my equipment, so I ordered another larger product lowepro carries,and use this as a secondary backpack.
