Introducing CompuPrimus AW with a removable notebook sleeve and
Primus Minimus, scaled down to fit smaller body types with all-day
comfort.
Lowepro, creator of innovative carrying solutions for the imaging world,
announces the extension of the Primus AW series of rugged, eco-friendly,
dual-compartment camera backpacks. Joining the Primus AW pack are a
smaller, yet fully featured Primus Minimus AW and the pro-sized
notebook-compatible CompuPrimus AW.
The Primus Minimus AW carries one DSLR with attached medium zoom lens,
1-2 additional lenses, tripod and accessories plus personal gear. The
CompuPrimus AW accommodates one pro DSLR with attached lens and 3-5
additional lenses, tripod, accessories and personal gear, plus features
a removable notebook sleeve with integrated sunshade that fits most
15.4” notebooks and offers protection from glare.
Primus Minimus AW and CompuPrimus AW feature a dual-compartment design
for flexible carrying options. The protective camera compartment offers
adjustable dividers to organize a pro or smaller DLSR, camcorder,
accessories, or any combination of gear for a custom kit. The upper
compartment includes organization pockets and space for additional
accessories or personal gear. In addition, an outside “hatch” pocket
with compression straps creates ideal storage space for a jacket or
hydration system.
A full set of premium features, added to increase the versatility of the
packs include: an ergonomic, 8-point harness system with DryFlo™ lining
to distribute weight evenly and provide breathable comfort; Lowepro’s
patented All Weather Cover™ to protect gear from the elements; an
adjustable Glide-Lock™ system to attach a tripod or extra accessories; a
Hideaway Tripod Mount™ to stabilize a tripod or monopod; a side-access
panel to quickly access small DSLRs with attached medium lens quickly
without removing pack; built-in memory card pockets and a safety
whistle; plus SlipLock™ attachment loops and compression straps.
All bags in the series are constructed of 100% post-consumer, recycled
Cyclepet® exterior fabric—using the equivalent of at least 22 PET
bottles while conserving landfill, energy and crude and refined oil.
Continuing Lowepro’s ongoing effort to combat the effects of climate
change, a portion of the proceeds from each Primus AW backpack will be
donated to Polar Bears International (PBI), a non-profit organization
dedicated to the worldwide preservation of the polar bear.
