Lowepro Slidera Pouches Provide Ultra-Compact Camera Users With Sleek, Compact Protection.

Santa Rosa, CA -- October 5, 2005 -- Lowepro, the worldwide leader of protective cases and backpacks for imaging products, is introducing a line of stylish camera pouches designed for today's ultra-compact digital camera users. The new Slider series strikes the perfect balance between style, convenience and protection.

Thanks to the unique construction of the Sliders, these pouches add little weight or size to ultra-compact cameras while still providing superior protection. To achieve this, a combination of high density foams, scratch resistant linings, micro-fibers and metal hardware was used in the Sliders construction. The result is a blend of compact protection and sheer sophistication. Available in thee colors (black, slate gray or red) the Sliders give users an opportunity to express their individual style in a subtle and sophisticated manor.

"Today's digital camera users are paying a premium for ultra-compact devices that can be easily stored in a pocket, backpack or a purse" explained Darren Hulsey, Product Manager at Lowepro. "The problem is however, that users are forgoing protective solutions on devices that typically need it even more then their larger counterparts. The Sliders provide the necessary protection for these devices in a compact and sleek design."

The Slider 10/20/30 camera pouches have the following dimensions:

Slider 10
2.7 (W) x 1.3 (D) x 4.5 (H)-inches (Exterior)

Slider 20
3.2 (W) x 1.3 (D) x 4.2 (H)-inches (Exterior)
