The CompuDay Photo 150 from Lowepro is a messenger-type bag designed to handle both your 15.6" laptop, DSLR with kit lens and various other electronic tools you use on a daily basis. For a fast-moving photojournalist who wants a lightweight and easily manageable bag, the CompuDay 150 offers many features that make it a real contender for a rugged and dependable shooting bag.
The zippered fast access side pocket eliminates the need of having to open the entire bag to remove your camera. Not having to open the entire bag means that those around you will not see what else you have in the bag - a real security bonus. Once you've taken your shots, replace the camera, zip up the pocket and you're off again. Go have lunch, remove your laptop from its own protected pocket, download your images and head off to your next gig. There is also a generous 11.8 x 0.4 x 8.7" front zippered pocket for even more items. Again, no need to open the entire bag if you only want to grab a pen, paper or quick snack. You'll also have a handy mesh airline pull-out pocket can store small items like your MP3 player, iPhone, iPod, keys, or a small paper notepad.
The bag is manufactured so you need not worry about getting caught in marginal weather. Your gear will remain safely protected within its ballistic nylon exterior. It's a comfortable bag to carry with its wide, adjustable shoulder strap or its quick-grab handle that make it easy when navigating through chaotic airports or other crowded venues. And, if you're using a rolling cart, the bag has even been supplied with a mesh trolley sleeve so you can quickly slip the bag over the handle and rest it on top of your luggage.
Inside, you have a separate protected pocket for a 15.6" laptop as well as an adjustable camera compartment to fit and hold whatever gear you are carrying that day. Another "wow" feature of the 150 is the removable accessory pouch that can be readily extracted for, perhaps, an airline security check or even if you don't feel you need it on any given day.
With its handsome Lowepro logo proudly displayed on the front and backed by a lifetime warranty, the CompuDay 150 meets the needs of the shooter who appreciates top quality in a decent-sized, reasonably-priced bag without the weight and cost of a traditional, bulkier shoulder bag.
