Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Lowepro's Micro Trekker 100 camera bag is the smallest in their Trekker series. This backpack measures 8.5 by 4.5 by 10.5 inches and can carry your SLR and your choice of accessories such as extra flashes, lenses, or bodies. Simply adjust the padded dividers into a configuration that will suit your particular needs. Inside the bag, the lightweight, high-density foam protects your gear from impact and extreme temperatures. On the exterior, the same tough, water- resistant nylon Lowepro uses on their expedition backpacks works to protect your photography gear.

The shoulder straps have a three-dimensional curve designed to arc around your neck and prevent fatigue and strain. The padding on the back of the pack reduces back fatigue and wicks away moisture, and the sternum strap is adjustable. This design also includes a hand grip for luggage-style carrying. The front pocket provides organizer pockets, while loops on the side of the pack can be used to attach more components.

Product Description

The most compact Trekker backpack has a large front organizer pocket, customizable interior, weather flap, laminated mesh pockets, a removable waistbelt and SlipLock attachment loops to expand your carrying capacity.

My husband and I just purchased our first Lowepro product for our SLR camera. We enjoy numerous outdoor activities and this style fits our needs perfectly. The quality construction and padding is top-notch. The design is a great backpack style that is both rugged and comfortable.

I like it, use it often, have the larger one and wish this there was one in-between the two. I still use film and will continue to do so until film is no longer available and this backpack doesn't give me enough room for the camera body, two lenses and the lead-lined bag I use to transport film through airports.

I guess if you have a digital camera this would be large enough.

5.0 out of 5 stars Easy access, great for travel. Definitely recommended!, June 26, 2007

I have a Nikon D80. I purchased the Micro Trekker 100 from B&H Photos in New York City while on vacation. Perfect choice!

Originally I purchased Case Logic's SLR Zoom Camera Holster before my vacation, but it's so bulky, and having it slung around my neck while I traveled was not comfortable. At B&H I checked out many small cases but it was clear the Micro Trekker 100 was perfect for my travel needs. I wanted space for my camera and lots of extra room for my wallet, maps, keys, snacks, small book, sunglasses, and more - your basic travel stuff. I thought it was nice that the inside zip pocket has two little zip pounces for holding money and was waterproof to protect my camera from getting wet (I did experience one day getting caught in the rain). There's added compartments inside for extra lenses, which I converted to more space for knickknacks by adjusting the Velcro walls inside. The backpack sits comfortably and is easy to access the camera all while walking or running about.

All in all it's a great travel camera bag that feels secure. There's a waist and shoulder cross strap for more secure snug fit, though I didn't use them. And the little mesh bag on the outside worked well for holding a soda bottle. In short, I was able to free up my hands and pockets and not feel weighted down while sightseeing, all with easy access to my camera. Definitely recommended!
