Lowepro Unveils the Next Generation of the Nova AW Series of Shoulder Bags
Lowepro, the worldwide leading provider of protective cases and backpacks for
imaging and technology products, today announced the launch of the next
generation models of their popular Nova AW series of shoulder bags, designed to
carry and protect a digital SLR and accessories in the most rigorous of weather
conditions. The new models of Nova AW bags are available in six sizes and
feature a patented 360° All Weather Cover which provides complete protection
from the elements while still allowing photographers to access equipment.
The newly launched models of the Nova AW series offer a large central
compartment with movable dividers large enough to accommodate digital SLR kits.
The larger models, Nova 180, 190, and 200 AW, can easily secure a pro digital
SLR while the smaller models, Nova 140, 160, 170 AW, have been designed for
enthusiast kits. The interior has been constructed of soft protective material
specifically produced to protect sensitive digital equipment. A front access
pocket provides safe and accessible storage for batteries, small accessories and
other necessities. Memory card pockets on the inside front lid ensure cards are
protected and available for quick changes.
“When we create our camera bags, our priority is to make certain that
photographers are able shoot while their equipment is protected even in
inclement weather. Lowepro designers are constantly re-examining and improving
our cases to ensure that the newest and most sensitive equipment has complete
security,” said Nicole Mummenhoff, Senior Vice President of Worldwide Marketing,
Lowepro. “The Nova AW series has consistently been a popular choice for
photographers at all experience levels, and we’re confident that the new models
will keep photographers shooting even when faced with challenging weather
conditions.”
Understanding that photographers need a shoulder bag that is as comfortable as
it is functional, the new Nova AW models offer the ability to carry by hand with
its soft, padded handle; by shoulder with its ergonomic, adjustable, removable
shoulder strap with non-slip grip, or as a beltpack with its built-in belt loop.
The Nova 180, 190 and 200 AW models include a sleeve, allowing travelers to slip
the bag over rolling luggage handles. All models are fitted with a 360° All
Weather Cover which enables photographers to access their camera bag with the
cover on and still continue working despite harsh weather.
Constructed of durable and attractive nylon exterior fabric, the Nova AW series
is available in four sophisticated shades: Black, Bordeaux Red, Chestnut Brown
and Ultramarine Blue.
