Comments about Lowepro Lowepro Photo Trekker AW II, All Weather Photographic Backpack, Black.:

The water sealed zippers are hard to open if you are in a hurry to catch a great moment. But it is very comfortable and ergonomic. I feel that my gear is really protected. Please note that the DayPack is already included! Another detail, these two big side pockets are accessories (not included). Great purchase!

Comments about Lowepro Lowepro Photo Trekker AW II, All Weather Photographic Backpack, Black.:

This pack works great for using on hiking trails.I felt confident that my gear was protected.Due to its size I couldn't use it for a carry-on. I always hike with my tripod and when I got caught in a downpour the raincover wouldn't fit over my tripod so things got wet.

Comments about Lowepro Lowepro Photo Trekker AW II, All Weather Photographic Backpack, Black.:

Holds lots of stuff! It is on the heavy side, but you would expect that from a pack that holds so much stuff. I was very surprised how comfortable it is once you put it on your back and attach all of the straps. It comes with a handy extra backpack that is very lightweight that attaches easily to the front of the the pack and still gives access to all of the zippers. Very solid construction.

Great for alot of gear
By SkierVerified Purchaser from Idaho on 2/5/2007

Comments about Lowepro Lowepro Photo Trekker AW II, All Weather Photographic Backpack, Black.:

Great for tons of gear, but for a telephoto zoom lens and another zoom, it's more weight than necessary. Construction and comfort of the pack is outstanding.
After I bot this pack I bot the MiniTrekker to ski with my telephoto zoom because the Trekker was too large, too heavy. It DID fit in all the airline carry-ons, though, and it's great for storage and certain trips.

Excellent (but a bit heavy)
By SteveS from Holmdel, NJ on 12/1/2006
Pros:
Adjustable Harness, Comfortable, Easily Accessible Equipment, Strong Construction
Cons:
a bit heavy
Best Uses:
Protecting Gear, Storing Gear, Transporting Gear

Comments about Lowepro Lowepro Photo Trekker AW II, All Weather Photographic Backpack, Black.:

Excellent overall design with many nice features. If you can't fit it in this baby, you've got too much gear for a backpack. With one body and a few lenses, there's plenty of room for a lunch and extra clothing, and the harness is excellent, so it's nice for day hikes. And it has enough room to serve as general storage for your gear when at home. The only downside is that it is a bit heavy all by itself, so if you're not protecting valuable glass, you'd be better off hiking with something else.
