Top 5 Waterproof Camera Bags to Protect Your Digital Camera & Equipment

Lowepro DryZone 200 Backpack

I have two Lowepro camera bags so I can honestly say that in terms of quality, this brand is probably one of the best available on the market right now. For its waterproof camera bag, the Lowepro Dryzone is touted as the world’s first totally waterproof, soft-sided camera backpack. One feature that would highlight its waterproof feature is the fact that it floats on water no matter how heavy the equipment inside the bag is. This camera backpack even lets you travel with less bulk when you need less protection for your camera. It allows you remove the TIZIP open and fasten just the inner zipper of the bag, allowing you quick access to your equipment. The bag’s camera compartment is heavy-duty, padded pretty well and even has a technical backpack harness. The bag also comes with lumbar support, fully adjustable CollarCut shoulder straps, tuck-away tripod holder, self-draining mesh pockets, drain hole, rubber handle and attachment loops for SlipLock accessories. In short, this camera bag is not only comfortable to wear but also gives your camera the ample protection it needs, especially in extreme environments. (Price: $219.95)
