Lowepro, high quality

Advantages: Comfortable, versatile and looks good.
Disadvantages: None.

...There are many top producers of camera bags but they do not come much better than Lowepro. Lowepro have an amazing range of camera cases and bags, from simple cases for point and shoot compact cameras to massive backpacks suitable for carrying huge DSLR`s, lenses and laptops. The Lowepro fastpack 200 is a middle of the range backpack from Lowepro, it can be purchased in three colours, black and blue, black and red or all black. The back pack itself is very lightweight and comfortable allowing you to stuff it full with as much heavy equipment as you might need. Outdoor photographers rely on backpacks like this to enable them to carry all their camera equipment as well as some personal stuff too. The lowepro fastpack 200 can comfortably carry a DSLR body with a mid-range lens attached, 1 or 2 extra lenses, a flashgun and still have...

Review of Lowepro Fastpack 200

At the Apex of the industry

Advantages: Cheap, very comfortable
Disadvantages: None.

..., rather than the Thursday I wanted (i.e. yesterday). Fine, I thought, a quick call to Lastminute and it'll be sorted. The hotel had said they had space, and it wasn't a problem, but Lastminute had to change it. Ok, no probs. Just call Lastminute. *Tears hair out* No chance of speaking to a human. You end up getting lost in a crazy computeried maze and the only way to speak to a human is to go to (you guessed it ) sales. All other requests ask you to go to the bloody website. Anyway, long story short Lastminute gave me short-shrift and said the hotel didn't have space. A lie. They did. I asked them. Apex to the rescue -------------------------- After 45 minutes of arguing with Lastminute, I spoke to the hotel, who very kindly offered to speak to them to sort out the whole sorry mess. To their credit, they did...

Lowepro the best choice

Advantages: compact light
Disadvantages: None

...Lowepro Rezo 20 :~ Bought this camera case due to the fact that when my new Fuji F31fd camera arrived it was not supplied with a camera case which personally think is a bit of a joke. But this has turned out to be a good thing as the Lowepro is probably much better than any other case I have seen before. Price :~ The price varies but the cheapest was on Amazon for £7.44. This was not with free p&p unless you spent £15 in total. So just buy something else so you are entitled to the free p£p Size & Material :~ The bag is 4.5"x3.5"x2" the outside is black. This is made with a Water-resistant Stretch Polyester. The camera compartment has a soft inner to prevent scratching the camera. All the stitching and material seems well made and I'm sure it will give me years of use. The case is not hard and if you dropped the camera...

A Lowepro for a digital

Advantages: Fits the camera perfectly
Disadvantages: Boringly efficient

...! A bit of searching for the right dimensions, a quick email to the company from e-bay, a quick response pointing me to one I?d missed on an auction (I wouldn?t admit this to everyone but the camera dimensions of 90 x60mm can also be 60mmx90mm!!), a ?buy it now? transaction and in two days I had my camera case ? all in price including p&p, £10. What did I get for my money? Manufacturer: Lowepro www.lowepro.com Case, called a pouch, which describes it very nicely has a ref D-Res 8S (Digital Resolution Series) Internal dimensions 100x65x40mm External material: water resistant nylon crossweave, mostly black, the zipped top in silver grey with the obligatory manufacturers logo. Internal material is a soft, lightly padded brushed nylon in grey. One full length internal pocket. Attachments: Two loops on top for the shoulder strap...

Hen weekend - Apex international, Edinburgh

Advantages: Proximity to city, excellent rooms and brilliant staff
Disadvantages: none

...We visited Edinburgh on my hen night and I had previously stayed at the Apex City on buisness which is about 3 doors away from the Apex International. All of our guests were arriving at different times as travelling from far and wide. As the bride I arrived first at 8.30am as my flight was an early one. We checked in but our rooms were not ready, the hotel offered to take our bags and then suggested an excellent breakfast eatery located on the Royal Mile. As we had just landed in Edinburgh we did not have much of a clue how to navigate the city - the staff in reception were excellent and even gave us a free map whislt advising of the best sights to see!! Once we had had breakfast and done some sightseeing, we returned to the hotel to find that our rooms were ready (12.30) We were a party of 8 staying in 2 rooms!! The hotel then...

Apex DVD Player

Advantages: Lasts long time, good performance
Disadvantages: Lack of image playback and surround sound support.

...The APEX DVD player is basically what you get for your money. It offers the basic features of DVD playback but lacks some key features required in todays technology. The DVD player is capable of playing most DVD's however it is quite poor at picture disc playback as it often tells you that there is some form of error. It also lacks LCD display so it is hard to tell features such as time lapsed, chapter number and so on (unless you bring it up on on-screen display). I also found a problem when resuming a film. When you insert the same disc you have just played the player tells you to press the resume button to continue; when there is no such button on the remote or player itself. This DVD player however can take quite a bit of work and perform pretty well. Overall I would say that this DVD player is only recommended for 'cheap...

Lowe-Pro Magnum

Advantages: Very high quality costruction and features.
Disadvantages: Quality comes at a price, sometimes.

...I have been using one of the Lowe-Pro Magnum bags for about 3 years, for my 35mm outfit, and I can't fault it for construction or capacity. There is a larger bag, the 'commercial' but I don't think many people would need this large a bag, unless they carried LARGE lenses on a regular basis. I can fit my 2 Canon EOS 5 bodies in (one fitted with 70-200mm f2.8 lens, and a pro flash, plus up to 2 extra lenses plus other gadgets and stuff. I always find that manufacturers over estimate the lens capacity of their bags (they must be using thin lenses), as the lenses I use are quite 'fat' being f2.8 zooms. The latest version of this bag has removeable end pockets (mine doesn't) to allow you the choice of adding other 'sliplock' accessories, such as lens pouches, film pouches etc in place of the pockets. I find that the integral pockets...
