Actually in recent years I\u2019ve settled on several bags I use most of the time, but I just got one that is going to turn out to be one of my \u201dall-time\u201d favorites.   The new Lowepro Pro Trekker 300AW is really a sweet bag.  Now you guys know I don\u2019t promote products on this blog, but this is a bag I really like and think it will fill a real void I\u2019ve had for some time.  I own bags from several manufacturers, but some of my very favorites are from Lowepro.  This is a small to slightly medium size backpack that can hold my traveling system with a very comfortable harness system, with lots of adjustments.  <\/p>\n<p>I can carry the following, and the bag is still not too heavy.   Two DSLR bodies, 12-24, 24-120,<br \/>\n70-300, 85 Micro Nikkor DX, and most of my accessories.  The outside slip pocket will take a<br \/>\n15\u201d Macbook Pro, or your iPad in padded case, supplied.  The same bag comes in a 400<br \/>\nand 600 models, both larger than the 300.<\/p>\n<p>This is my first four day trip through airports and for field work.  I\u2019ll let you know how it performed<br \/>\nlater in the weekend.   I\u2019m very impressed with the construction and materials used in this bag.<br \/>\nIt sure is fun, playing with photo gear&#8230;&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>blessings,<\/p>\n<p>the pilgrim<\/p>\n<p><i>* Images courtesy Lowepro website.<br \/>\n<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>You guys know by now I\u2019m a member of the \u201cBag of the Month Club\u201d!
