      Comments about Lowepro Fastpack 200 Backpack (Red/Black):

      I carry an SLR body and three lens, binoculars,filters, cleaning gear and extra batteries and there is room for more. I take a lot of senic pictures and the fastpack 200 is the prefect unit for transporting my gear wether over ruff terrain or on a trail. It leaves my hands free and is easy to get to the gear. I wish it had a place for carring a tripod but I improvised to work that out. Great overall.

      Comments about Lowepro Fastpack 200 Backpack (Red/Black):

      I originally bought the Fastback 100, but quickly realized that it was somewhat small and didn't fit all my gears. I upgraded to the Fastback 200 and never looked back. Plenty of room of my gears. It is somewhat bulky when done and all, but holds everything. I can just put it on my back and then go. Also, I like the looks. Looks like any regular backpack and unless you are into photography, you wouldn't know that it is.

      Perfect to keep your camera safe in travel. The top portion is useful for "other" things and all of the camera components fit safely on the bottom. It's a little heavy, but I like size.

        We had our previous camera stolen when we left it in a taxi in Mexico. We needed a larger bag and the red helps it stand out! Also the camera has easy access from the bottom and I can use the top as my purse:) Very sturdy and protective too!

          This is the perfect backpack for use when you do not need all of your gear but just want your camera with you. You can a a 40d with a 100 to 400 zoom and a second lens in the main compartment. I use this when riding my bike and going to the ZOO. The top compartment is great for a rain jacket, lunch or anything else you may need

            Comments about Lowepro Fastpack 200 Backpack (Red/Black):

            I've been looking for a comfortable backpack for my Canon XSI body, lenses and accessories for a while now and haven't been able to find anything that's a great size with storage, a decent price and not all black. I've found this to be a good size with lots of padding and very sticky velcro dividers for your gear. There's even room for water, keys, cell phone etc. Since I'm still pretty new at photograhpy I don't have a lot of gear and this backpack works well. If you have a lot of larger lenses you may not be able to fit them all into the lower compartment but for my needs it works well. I like the fact that my camera body is easy to get to when I'm wearing the pack and I don't have to stop what I'm doing, put the pack down, find the camera and shoot the picture.

                I have really enjoyed using this camera bag. There is plenty of storage for all of my photography accesories, and I love the quick access to my camera. This is a very intelligently designed camera bag. I had looked at similar bags at a local photography store, but they cost twice as much, and were not near as userfriendly as this one is!

                  This is a really nice back pack. I was a little reluctant to order this at first but then I went to my local camera shop and tried it out. It's the perfect size I can get my D90, 18-105 lens, 70-300 lens and even has more room for a flash, point and shoot, and ultra pod. It's really quite comfortable, though a bit stiff at first. I also love the fact that I can access the camera without taking the bag off.

                    The best photo bag we had so far. Fast and easy access to your camera through the side access to a central pocket for your camera body. You just drop the bag of one shoulder and swing the bag around your other shoulder. There are lots of smart compartiments in the bag, e.g. to store a 2nd SD-memory card. And the bag weighs almost nothing. When the box arrived, I thought it was empty at first ,-)
                    Only negative point we found is the net on the side to hold a water bottle: it's a bit too low. Because of that sometimes the bottle falls out when you swing the bag over your shoulder to open the sideways access flap to your camera.

                      Perfect bag for the on the go photographer, my only wish would be a waist strap, to more securely strap the bag around your body while hiking. But overall great backpack! LowePro is the way to go!

                          I have a Lowepro Sling200 that's pretty ok except that it's tough on the shoulder during a full day of shooting. The Fastpack solves that problem and still maintains the easy access of the Sling. The accessory pocket above the camera/lens section is also a little bigger. Nice. The water bottle holder is a big plus. Only negative I have is the funky little bin in the lens section. It's long and thin and I haven't figured out any good use for it. If it were just a bit wider, it would hold my 70-200 nicely.
