March 16, 2007 — Lowepro has announced three new camera bag lines and styles. They include:

Primus AW: Unlike any bag currently on the market, Primus AW, made from 51% recycled materials, enables photographers to carry and access all the necessary components for outdoor photography while providing the highest possible comfort and extreme protection. The main camera compartment is padded and holds a digital SLR Pro body with zoom lens attached, in addition to 1-2 extra lens or flash units. The camera compartment is expandable, enabling large equipment capacity and quick equipment retrieval. The Primus AW offers photographers quick and easy access to their equipment, without removing the bag, through expandable side zipped camera pockets.

Vertex: Uniquely designed to deliver maximum comfort with minimal bulk, the Vertex series is capable of carrying 1-2 pro digital SLR units, a large 35mm or medium format system, a number of lenses, a tripod or monopod, a flash and digital accessories. Exterior features include the All Weather Cover, Lowepro’s adjustable Glide-Lock accessory attachment system for securing tripods and other outdoor accessories, two outer pockets for memory cards and filters, plus a mid-pocket which is large enough for most notebook computer models.

Napoli Pouches: Lightweight and compact, the Napoli series of pouches are the perfect option for consumers to carry and protect their ultra-compact digital camera, such as the Nikon CoolPix L3 and the Canon PowerShot SD450. With its durable, fine-grain, nappa leather exterior and soft padded suede interior this new line of pouches protects digital cameras against scratches and impact when transported by hand, in pockets, purses or bags.
