Product Review: Lowepro Minitrekker


I recently took the opportunity to field test my new Lowepro Minitrekker, that I received with a subscription to an unnamed magazine, at Upton Warren WWT. When it first arrived I was surprised at how chunky it was, but quickly realized its potential as a serious touring/birding rucksack.

Behold the shite photos taken inside one of the hides:






Contained are: 0.5 Liter Thermos, 2 Books, Gloves, Hat, Camera, Binoculars, and some food that I ate. Loads of space inside with adjustable velcro straps to accomodate your stuff. Inside and outside pockets, and interestingly a fold-out All Weather Cover at the bottom.


















Quick Release Tripod Holder in action. (Iwonder which magazine this came with?)


















Quite chunky, but well secured.























All in all, a nice piece of kit catering well to the photographer/birder/wandering perv with telescope. Note-I removed some of the excess straps beforehand.
