The Rover is similar to the Orion Trekker,
but with AW cover and more features. The
bottom compartment is 28Wx14Dx21.5H,
big enough for a pro SLR with
80–200/f2.8 zoom attached, plus other
lenses, whilst the top section has room for
lots of lenses and clothes. There’s a tripod
holder on the front, additional waist and
sternum straps, and more capacity can be
gained from optional SlipLock accessory
pouches. LPR2 £87.50

3–4cm to each dimension will give an
idea of the external size.

Lowepro DryZone 200
Another first for Lowepro - the first soft
camera bag which is completely waterproof.
The same size as a Nature Trekker,
the DryZone is two bags in one. The inner
watertight container uses a hi-tech TIZIP
zipper (this can be left open for easier
access in more hospitable conditions).
Bonded to this is an outer backpack which
includes drain holes, tripod holder and
mesh pockets for wet stuff, and SlipLock
attachment points. Fall off a boat, walk
under a waterfall – your equipment is
completely safe! £219.95
