other · 2026-07-31

Lowepro has announced the Fastpack IV Collection, the latest iteration of its popular backpack range designed for photographers, videographers, and content creators. The series includes three models—BP 150 AW IV (16L), BP 250 AW IV (22L), and BP 450 AW IV (28L)—with prices starting at $139.95, $169.95, and $189.95 respectively. All backpacks are available in black. Key features include a redesigned full back-panel opening, a side-access camera compartment with dual-compartment layout, lockable zips, and dedicated organization pockets. The camera compartment can be reconfigured to transform the bag into a traditional daypack for non-photo use. The BP 250 and BP 450 models include a 16-inch laptop sleeve, while the BP 150 holds a 14-inch notebook. The collection supports mirrorless cameras and multiple lenses, with the BP 150 accommodating a camera and three lenses, the BP 250 adding a fourth, and the BP 450 allowing for an additional lens. Lowepro emphasizes the bags' durability, improved functionality, and design shaped by modern travel needs. Nick Tsang, Product Marketing Director at Lowepro, stated that the Fastpack IV was developed to combine fast access with flexibility, protection, and smarter storage for contemporary creators. The collection builds on Lowepro's 50-year heritage in carrying solutions.
