Our ever-popular Mini Trekker — now with an All Weather Cover™ —is lightweight, compact and holds a surprising amount of gear. Includes an integrated quick-release tripod holder, attachment loops for optional SlipLock™ accessories, compression straps and lots of pockets — including a large front pocket with a weather flap and a quick-access front pocket. The ergonomic harness features wide, padded shoulder straps and a sternum strap.
What fits inside
SLR with attached 80–200mm f/2.8 lens (most makes), additional body, 4–6 more lenses
This is one bag that can surprise you. My main bag when I travel with my DSLR. It looks small but can fit lots of stuff. One D700 with few lenses, speedlight and a X100. The front compartment usually I fill it with some changing clothes or travelling documents.

It's my workhorse bag, I use it most of the time for my aviation trips. The config here is not my usual one, it's more to show how much one can put into it - however, I actually used it like that twice when going abroad with the plane :) The backpack is absolutely brilliant - apart from what you could expect as Lowepro standard, you get a very strong zipper that firmly closes the top even if some items are sticking a bit out of the "usual" depth (I miss that feature in the Nature Trekker). The front pocket is very deep, once I went to the Berlin air show with only the Minitrekker and all of my personal stuff (clothes, toothbrush etc :)) packed there. And, yes, the plane... while "regular size" backpacks like Nature Trekker are made to fulfil the norms for the carry-on luggage, the reality is sometimes less optimistic.. and Mini Trekker is the safe bet.
What works
Everything: quality, flexibility, capacity, large front pocket, AW cover, smart tripod holder, solid zipper
Room for improvement
Can't think of any. This one is just perfect.

Great bag, lots of room yet doesn't look it. I had the mini trekker 100, but was too small to fit anything but d50 and 18-70mm lens.
Got domke f-2, great bag, tough to fit all my gear though, still a great shoulder bag if i am not carrying all my gear. Then got this, i am happy.
What works
Weatherproof, huge compared to how it looks
Room for improvement
heavy even when empty
