PMA 2007, Las Vegas, NV - March 8, 2007 - Lowepro, the worldwide leader
of protective cases and backpacks for imaging products, notebook
computers and personal electronics, today announced the launch of its
new Vertex series of premium backpacks designed for the serious
adventure bound photographer or sports photojournalist. The products
contain a rugged exterior design with water resistant zippers and a
seam-sealed Lowepro All Weather Cover™ that protects gear even in the
most strenuous outdoor environments. The Vertex line also conforms to a
variety of body types with an adjustable harness system, making it the
most comfortable, durable and secure backpack for today's most spirited
digital photographers. Samples of the Vertex backpack series can be
seen throughout PMA 2007 at the Lowepro booth, #M160.
Uniquely designed to deliver maximum comfort with minimal bulk, the
Vertex series is capable of carrying 1-2 pro digital SLR units, a large
35mm or medium format system, a number of lenses, a tripod or monopod,
a flash and digital accessories. Exterior features include the All
Weather Cover™, Lowepro's adjustable Glide-Lock™ accessory attachment
system for securing tripods and other outdoor accessories, two outer
pockets for memory cards and filters, plus a mid-pocket which is large
enough for most notebook computer models. The Vertex is also detailed
internally with adjustable padded dividers with side velex-lining and
additional accessory pockets.
"Lowepro is keenly aware of the challenges professional photographers
meet each day when shooting in rigorous outdoor environments and we've
designed the Vertex bags with the most adventuresome photographers in
mind," said Nicole Mummenhoff, Senior Vice President at Lowepro.
"Constructed for protection, durability and ease of use, Vertex
backpacks keep a photographer's most valuable commodities - photo
equipment and notebook computers - secure from moisture, dust and sand,
while maintaining a comfortable, customized fit. From see-through
pockets that let you easily locate accessories to silent zipper pulls
that provide quiet access while around wildlife and film crews, we've
put together a bag that truly addresses the multiple needs of the
intrepid photographer."
