The Lowepro Slingshot 200 AW Backpack
Provides a "Three Lens" Solution

For avid amateurs and professionals alike, the Lowepro Slingshot 200 provides single bag satisfaction with more capacity to carry larger cameras and more accessories. Unlike the Slingshot 100, the Slingshot 200 easily fits a DSLR with the battery pack attachment since the bag has a deeper compartment.

The main compartment also allows you to carry an assortment of lenses and a mid-range zoom lens attached to most brands and models. Regular SLR cameras, even with a long lens, may still be too loose inside. Those trying to choose either the Slingshot 100 and 200 should be aware that the latter has extra weight and bulk.

As a "three lens solution" the Slingshot 200 excels as an all-day camera bag that provides a comfortable fit without shoulder pain strain. Accessories are stored in two generous organizer pockets along with a built-in memory card pouch. And a micro fiber LCD cloth protects your screen when stored.

There is adequate storage for extra batteries, a flash, lens hood, remotes and other small items when carrying medium or fewer lenses. For more heavy loads and more lens options, choose the larger Slingshot 300.

The sling style allows easy access to your gear and even serves as a shooting platform in some situations. For some women, the single chest strap tends to push against the breasts and becomes physically uncomfortable to wear.

If the waist belt is not worn, the pack tends to slide off the back or needs to be held with one hand when bending over. Some users have difficulty adjusting to the sling style and still prefer the backpack style with two straps.
