About this bag

Flipside 400 AW is a high-performance camera backpack designed with a large capacity, premium security, all-day comfort, plus protection from the elements. Its unique back-entry compartment provides easy access to camera gear when setting up (keeping the harness off the ground and clean of debris), plus extra security when on the move. Adjustable dividers allow custom organization inside the roomy main compartment. Other features include: a mesh-covered, padded waistbelt, back pad and contoured straps for added comfort and wicking away moisture; a hideaway tripod holder to secure a tripod or monopod to backpack; built-in memory card pockets on inside panel; front storage panels and mesh pockets for storing additional gear; Hypalon® SlipLock™ attachment loops for SlipLock™ compatible products; a built-in All Weather Cover™; and silent zipper pulls. Perfect for the traveling photographer or enthusiast who needs to keep expensive gear securely tucked away, yet close at hand to capture the shot in a moment.

What fits inside

1 pro DSLR with lens attached (300mm f/2.8) plus an additional body, 4-6 additional lenses, chargers

Top-quality backpack

Comfort8Features8Build9Price8

What works

Elegant & strong build quality, big enough to bring mostly gear as you can imagine ! Looks like a classic backpack, the front pocket is really useful as well

Room for improvement

The back opening doesn’t open all the way making it harder to access gear at the bottom of the bag

Nikon D90 All this fits into the Flipside 400 pretty well. I'm a big fan of this camera bag. Don't really have any more room for anything else though. nikon d90

So my first impression : It looks more than strong ! It is a lot more comfortable than my Orion Trekker II. I am also more confident in the build quality. All filled it seems lighter (I think that it is because it's better made) than my Orion less filled. It is alot bigger than the Orion Trekker II .I can put a lot more inside. A big plus is the possibility to attach a tripod or a monopod on the back. inside the pocket I can add paper, batteries, charger, ..... I think I can even add a notebook (eeepc or equivalent)
