Great camera bag...........2007-11-17
After seeing this bag in use by a friend I gave it a try... Very nice bag! I love the fact that now I only have ONE "carry on bag" where I use to have a camera bag and laptop bag! Lowepro as always been a good name in camera bags! And I love the access to my main camera/lens with just opening a bit of the top cover... Nice!

Returned it for a Kata Bag.......2007-07-03
I ordered this bag and a Kata R103 at the same time because I just couldn't decide based on the item descriptions and reviews. After trying them both I think the Kata bag is much better. First the camera compartment is much more convenient to access since it has a seperate opening on the front of bag, with Lowepro you have to be careful not to spill other contents out when getting the camera out of the main compartment. The Kata bag on me feels much more comfortable and ergonomic, since these are big backpacks, comfort is very important. Since they are of similar price, I kept the Kata bag.
Awesome!.......2007-05-30
This is a great little backpack! Well, It is a little thick, but heck look what your carrying! You have your camera gear plus a laptop. I have a 15" Macbook Pro and it fits great in this pack! Plenty of dividers and pockets for your camera gear. The protection of the laptop is very good, I have had no issues with that. Please make sure you get the proper size of Computrekker!! There is a larger model for your 17" laptops.
The laptop slot may not be as useful as you think.......2007-04-21
Ask yourself if you really need the laptop slot this bag provides. Because it does add a few inches to the thickness of the bag, whether or not you are carrying a laptop or not. Because of this, the bag looks bulky while you are wearing it, more bulky than the Lowepro Minitrekker, which is basically this bag, minus the laptop slot. Further, you may even be able to fit a laptop in the Minitrekker if it's a smallish one.
Aside from the above, this Lowepro and other Lowepro models are great photo backpacks. Very sturdy and made with quality materials that should last a very long time.
Great for airline travel and general use.......2007-03-01
If this is the size and format solution you need, it's a great backpack. It is my primary main bag at this point, and when I travel, is what I carry on the plane with me. As a backpack such as when hiking, though, I don't think it's the best solution. For that, I use a ThinkTank Speed Freak. Because this bag holds a computer (up to a Dell 8600 size), it is a great travel solution if the camera part is big enough for you. I can get a (all Nikon) D200, D70, 70-200 f2.8, 12-24 f4, 18-200 VR, SB-800, CP8400, spare batteries, chargers, filters, and a few other accessories in the main compartment. I don't put anything in the ouside pocket to get on a plane, as then it's too thick for the overhead. This bag will fit under the seat in every plane I've been in, including commuter's. It will fit in every overhead except the commuters. These appraisals are with a computer in the bag, too. You WILL get flagged by TSA, as there is just too much stuff in a bag like this. But I've never been delayed, just had them look through it for 1 or 2 minutes. What I've heard is if you have a lot of stuff, and it's NOT organized in a bag like this, that's when you may have more trouble. If you have more equipment than I do, possibly the Plus version would be better. But, keep in mind that one will be too big for some airlines for a carry on, especially international. Also, this one is VERY heavy when fully loaded, so the Plus would be just that much heavier.
In terms of what the bag is "intended" for, backpacking or hiking, I at least would not use it for that. I want more instant access and you have to take this off to get at anything. When full, this bag is VERY heavy, and if you were hiking or backpacking you DON'T need that much equipment. If you think you do, you will simply be very unhappy IMO. Further, you won't take a computer on a hike (well, I certainly don't), and the computer pocket just adds thickness (at least 2 inches even when empty) if not carrying a computer.
But as a primary storage solution and travel solution, I like this bag.
The AW cover is fine and well designed, but since I don't use it for hiking I probably will never use it. But it's nice to know it's there and it takes up literally no room.
It's made very well. It's been on 3 trips and looks brand new. It's very excellent protection for the computer and the main compartment (altho' the ouside pocked isn't padded). The straps are comfortable, and up to the task when fully loaded. The dividers are very flexible, and you should be able to make it work for any equipment that will fit inside.
I also have a LowePro Sideline shooter (smaller waist bag that I've actually outgrown), and that has been a great bag for me, too. Just to say that bag has been through the wringer, and still looks great and works great. Lowepro makes quality stuff.
Would I buy the Computrekker AW again? For travel, probably. Although for that I might consider one of the rolling options by Pelican or Lowepro instead, altho those are all larger and that I wouldn't like. I would also consider the ThinkTank Airport bags instead, too.
This is a great bag if it's the right style for you. There's absolutely nothing wrong with the design or construction of the bag. Just think about what you really need before you buy anything, as there are a ton of great choices out there, of which this is certainly but not the only one.

Camera bag.......2007-12-31
I bought this bag for my husband for Christmas. He just loves it. It has oodles of pockets and he is able to store many items including his notebook.
It is more of a backpack than a bag but I suppose it is more functional this way. The price seemed high but perhaps it's standard for this type of equipment.
IT'S HUGE!!.......2007-08-07
If you fly a lot, this is so big that it will be your only allowable carryon. And it BARELY fits. Having said that, it holds two bodies, two flashes and four lenses, including a 80-200mm VR nikon with room to spare. it is well organized. my laptop is a macbook, but I'm pretty sure this would hold a 17" mac pro. It has serious weight lugging ability, with shoulder and chest straps. it has several places to tie stuff on the outside, if you could lift the thing after you had done that.
Having said all that, it is pretty light for it's size, seems well made. I'll update this if it falls apart after a few overseas flights.
Its a monster!!!!.......2007-06-27
I bought this bag because it looked like it would be able to hold all my current gear plus room to grow. I was shocked at how big it was. The back is very well padded so when you have it loaded and it weighs a ton, it won't feel like your back in college with a bag full of books. The computer area is great and hold my 15" MacBook Pro just fine. Plenty of room for a 17" too. I think it is a great buy for the price. The other bags that cost $200+ offer the same features as this one. Save your money!!!!!
On Time As promised.......2007-06-10
Item received as advertized. On time as per notification. High Quality Item Fast Service
This Backpack is HUGE.......2007-05-25
Unless you need to carry a tent in your backpack, this bag will fulfill your photojournalistic needs.
I had no idea the backpack was this big until I saw it in person. Yes, I read the dimensions, but still, it's a shock to see it up close and personal.
But it was a good shock, as I can carry almost everything I need in this backpack.
You might have seen the descriptions, but it's worth revisiting. I can fit 2 cameras with their lenses attached, as well as extra lenses, my Canon Speedlight external flash, my 17" Dell laptop, batteries, cleaning accessories, etc. - it even has an external strap to hold a tripod.
Yes, it will fit everything short of the kitchen sink!
And if the kitchen sink starts running, it even has a water-resistant cover that can be pulled out from a pouch at the bottom of the backpack to enclose it entirely.
And the extra straps(waist and sternum) really help to keep the backpack tight and secure to the body when you carry a full load like I do and need to do a little bit of trekking.
As with other Lowepro products, the material and construction are extremely high-quality. Just one handle and you'll recognize it right away, down to the zippers - high quality zippers are an essential but often unmentioned quality.
The bottom line is, it's very BIG, and very worth it!
