Product Description

Manufacturer Description

Manufacturer Description The Tamrac Explorer 1 carries and protects a digital or film SLR (like Canon's 20D or Nikon's D70s) with a lens attached, an additional lens and accessories. The main compartment features Tamrac's Dual-Foam Technology for shock protection and a custom fit to equipment. An external front pocket features Tamrac's patented Memory and Battery Management System, which uses red flags to identify which memory cards and batteries are available and which ones are used up. A Speed Pocket on the front flap secures and provides quick access to small accessories. A Total Coverage Top with quick-release buckle and zipper closures provides weather protection. Inside the lid is a smooth nylon pocket for holding lens cleaning paper and an open pocket in the back holds an instruction manual. An adjustable, BioCurve non-slip shoulder strap, and an EasyGrip carrying handle provide convenient carrying options for the Explorer 1.

Dual-Foam Technology
First instituted in our professional lens cases many years ago, Dual-Foam Technology is used in many of our bags today. It combines closed-cell foam to provide maximum shock protection with open-cell foam for vibration dampening and a custom fit.

Memory and Battery Management System
Many of our camera bags feature the patented Memory and Battery Management System, which provides quick access to memory cards, batteries, and accessories. This unique system uses red flags to identify available memory cards and batteries from ones that are used up.

Total Coverage Tops
Many Tamrac bags offer triple protection against rain, dust, and sand. Our Total Coverage Tops offer triple protection against the elements by providing three levels of security: hook and loop closures for quick access, EasySqueeze quick-release buckles for security and a zipper closure for the ultimate weather protection.

Strap Accessory System (S.A.S.)
Tamrac's Strap Accessory System has components that attach to the shoulder straps of most of our camera bags and backpacks to allow photographers to personalize and customize their carrying systems.

Modular Accessory System (M.A.S.)
This system allows photographers to customize and personalize their backpacks, shoulder bags, and cases by using accessories that quickly attach to the many Tamrac products that feature the M.A.S. attachment slots. These accessories will also attach to any belt or to Tamrac's Modular Accessory Belt.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great fit for my D200, July 11, 2007
I was concerned that this bag might be too small for a full size DSLR, but it is absolutely right for my D200 with 18-200 lens. I wish I could post a picture showing how perfectly it fits! Just enough room for the charger & extra battery or two as well. Memory cards fit nicely into their own pockets, and I can still carry a lens cleaner & a couple of filters. There is still a bit of room yet, but that is really all I need. The bag seems to be very well constructed, nicely padded, and I really like the overhanging top flap which helps protect the contents from inclement weather. If you need to carry a larger assortment of accessories or extra lenses, or have a bulkier camera, you might want to go for a larger bag. For those of us who prefer to travel light, the Explorer 1 is perfect.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very nice camera bag., March 23, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I bought this bag for a Sony A100. Camera fits snugly and is well protected. The construction of this bag is very good, with heavy stitching and zippers that work smoothly. There are several pockets for additional accessories and yet the bag is compact and easy to carry, with a shoulder strap and a hand strap. Good performance to price ratio, I recommend.
