Due to a change of kit and the fact that my Stealth reporter D200AW has been causing me shoulder ache, I needed a new bag.
My mini trekker is a great bag but a pain when it comes to quick access.
As I've previously owned a Slingshot 200 AW, I decided that this series would be ideal.
I planned on getting the 300 AW but Stuart at Digital Depot was happy to price match the best price I could find for the new 302 AW (£79.99).
That additonal pocket and the facility to hold a tripod sold the bag to me.
It's made to the usual Lowepro high standard and with the little use I have had with it, it's very comfortable.
As for storage capacity, I have additional room for at least 2 / 3 x shorter lenses or another Canon white L lens (don't think I will need another for quite some time.
Current kit comprises of Canon 50D with 24-105L attached, 70-200L IS F4, Canon 10-22 and the usual accessories such as batteries, CF cards, filters, rocket blower etc.
There is plenty of room for a couple of flash guns etc.
I've not yet tried it with the tripod attached but I think it will be fine.
It would be a struggle to fit 2 x bodies but any body with a grip would fit without a problem.
Overall I think this bag will be perfect for me and unless I need to take a jacket and thermos with me, I don't think my mini treker will get much use.
Anyone who is looking for a bag with quick access and wants to take a fair bit of kit, then this bag is certainly worth checking out.
Also don't forget to speak to Stuart from Digital Depot and if you collect in person, the coffee isn't bad either
