Lowepro Flipside 400 AW III

The Lowepro Flipside 400 AW III opens from the back panel — keeping your camera gear against your body and out of reach of pickpockets. It holds a DSLR or mirrorless body with 4-6 lenses, has a dedicated drone compartment, built-in AW (All Weather) cover and a tablet sleeve. The outdoor photographer's bag.

GearFrame's Take

The Flipside 400 is the bag of choice for outdoor and travel photographers who need security, weatherproofing and serious carrying capacity. The back-access design is particularly good in crowds — your gear is never accessible to anyone but you.
