Lowepro Rizo 110
The under appreciated camera bag
The camera bag is certainly something I've come to take for granted. I never give a thought about its true value.
But the other day I learned an important lesson about the importance of buying a quality camera bag. So I decided to share my experience about a product I've owned for more than a year.
I grabbed my Lowepro Rezo 110 camera bag for a mid-afternoon walk. The bag holds my Pansonic FZ18, my Canon SD700 and/or Fujifilm F20 and a couple of accessories. About halfway to my destination, without much notice, it started raining. Fortunately, the bag had a feature I never used before: an integrated all weather cover.
The waterproof cover is tucked in a compartment sealed with Velcro. You don't even know it's there. In fact when I first bought the camera bag, I didn't know it had this feature until I read the pamphlet.
But thankfully, I remembered the all weather cover that morning. I quickly took it out of its dedicated compartment and carefully wrapped it around the entire camera bag.
The all weather cover provided maximum protection for my equipment. It's one of the many features worthy of consideration when buying a bag for your digital camera. Ya just never know when you'll need it.
