Designed for the photojournalist. Adopted by the enthusiast. Improved
for all! Introducing the next generation of SlingShot™ AW from Lowepro.
Our newest, fast-access SlingShot AW series builds on the inventive
design of the original and incorporates what many photographers are
looking for: faster access, extra space for personal items, improved
organization, and the ability to add a tripod. The SlingShot 302 AW
offers more volume in the upper compartment for extra accessories or
personal items. A Hideaway Tripod Mount™ system with foldout holder and
quick-release buckle secures a compact tripod to the side. The same
inventive design—letting you quickly rotate to the front to
access—remains a tried-and-true feature of this customer favorite. Also
includes: a patented All Weather AW Cover™; 3 SlipLock™ attachment
loops; built-in microfiber cleaning cloth; dedicated memory card
pockets; and easy-glide zippers; plus a fully padded main camera
compartment with an updated divider system to accommodate the most
popular DSLR models

- easy-glide zippers throughout the bag (keeps operations smooth)
- a built-in, microfiber cleaning cloth (placed at the side with its
own stretch-mesh pocket)
- 3 SlipLock™ attachment loops (to expand carrying capacity when you
need to)
- padded waistbelt for extra comfort and to evenly distribute the load

(right) took our SlingShot™ 302 AW to a shoot in the snowy and
expansive Wasatch National Forest in Utah. Here's what he had to say
about the next generation of our top-selling sling bag.
"The SlingShot™ 302 is by far the best pack to date that I have
ever taken into the backcountry. This awesome, unique sling design
allowed me to reach hard-to-find locations and create a quick set-up in
the deep while there. I could ride my sled to the top of a snow cornice
or side hill through the trees and into position on a bowl where I'd
pull my camera out and start shooting within seconds.
The design allowed me to loosen the sling strap, swing it around,
unzip the main compartment, grab my camera and get right into shooting.
Once the snow tracked up after a few takes, I quickly put my camera
back in the sling without even taking it off my back so I quickly could
move to the next position.
The past few years, I've taken a fully loaded camera bag—which is
way to heavy after a few hours riding—and had to take it off and set in
the snow as I put together a camera system to start shooting. The
SlingShot 302 AW made a world of difference on location this season.
I'd say that Lowepro has really knocked it out of the park with
design. I would highly recommend it to anyone who gets into the
backcountry on snowmobiles, ATV's, enduro motorcycles, skiing or
snowboarding. The comfort, fit and style (compression straps for maximum
stability) can't be beat."
