What American Photo EditorÆs Choice Award Say's About the Kata 3N1 Sling/Backpack:
Co-Camera Bag of the Year: Kata 3N1 Sling/Backpack Sling packs always seemed like a
good idea to us, providing quicker access to their contents than you get with a traditional
backpack. There are two problems with them, though: They're not designed for left-handers
(unless those 15 percent of us are willing to wear one on their left shoulder, which makes it
awkward to access the contents with your left hand when you swing the bag forward), and
the single-strap design can be awkward and uncomfortable over longer hauls. Kata's
innovative design is three, three, three bags in one. (Sorry, we're just out of our minds from
three months of Editor's Choice.) It's a sling pack for right-handers. Tuck away the red strap,
pull out and buckle up the black one, and it's a sling pack for left-handers. Buckle up both
straps out and it's a backpack. In fact, for the latter you simply cross the second strap over
the first, adjusting each strap's dual sliding pads for greatest comfort against your chest. Not
to slight lefties, but it's this capability that impresses us the most. Fortunately the 3N1's
ultrasecure "quick draw" flaps work in any of its three configurations, giving you instant side
access to your camera when you swing the bag around front. There's room in there for your
SLR with zoom attached, and, depending on model -- it comes in three sizes -- from two or
three to five or six more lenses, depending on what other accessories you're packing. Under
$100.

3N1 û 20 Sling / Backpack is designed to fit a D/SLR with mid-range zoom lens attached and
3-4 extra lenses with accessories.
