Just casually checking out camera bags on digiDIRECT and noticed this Lowepro Freeline 350 AW Black Bag is on sale for $139.98
They usually go for around $280 range. It's a good cheaper alternative to Peak Design backpacks.
seems like Amazon AU have price matched this for the same price with Free Delivery.
Any pros/cons?
The straps on the front and sides are great for a tripod. The laptop pocket at the back is good to have, and there's handles on each side so you can grab it and carry from a car like a briefcase. (they may be made for something else but I use them to carry) -
The phone holder on the strap doesn't fit my galaxy s9+ so it's pretty small, but the other side you could clip something like a walkie talkie etc so handy to see not just plain fabric straps. There's waist and chest straps also and the chest strap can be moved to 3 different heights depending on torso height I presume and general comfort.
It's a very well made bag, I'm happy with the quality and it should last a while :)
Oh also has a luggage strap so you can put it on your roller bag handle through an airport
Looks really similar to peak design everyday backpack.
NO.
Amazon price went back up to $280? Was $140 but only 2 was in stock at that price previously
Theres a section below that says "new from other sellers"
Click on that.
Oh how did I not see that? Thanks bs0
I've got this bag, nice side access, and some clever pocket placements. Quite happy, if you've got any questions let me know :)
