Pack on your camera and laptop
Lowepro’s Fastpack 250 let me organize my gear for easy access on the go, whether I was navigating airports, ancient ruins, or tropical forests. The camera compartment on this day-sized backpack holds an SLR camera with a zoom lens, and has four adjustable slots for storing smaller lenses, a flash, a point-and-shoot camera, and other gear.
The computer sleeve holds a laptop (up to 15.4 inches) or a guidebook, map, and travel documents. They are accessible without removing the pack, using side-access zippers. Stash a jacket, snacks, a novel, and other supplies in the sizable main compartment, and slip a water bottle in the bag’s outer mesh side pocket. The Fastpack retails for $119.99, but currently sells for $89.95 on
