Pacsafe CamSafe 200 Camera Shoulder Bag Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I thought this bag would be bigger after looking at it on their site. The demo video that pacsafe links to makes it looks bigger than it is as it is obviously reviewed by a little person thereby making the bag look bigger. Not really a problem but just a little bit of a surprise when actually handling it in person.
The main compartment will comortably fit 2 cameras at the same time (a Rebel XSI with EFS 17-85 and the Rebel T2i with 24-105 4L) with lenses facing the bottom of the bag. There is still a couple of inches of room height wise running full length of the main compartment
The main compartment will also snuggly fit a single Canon 5D Mark II with the 70-200 2.8L II in the horizontal position. That should give you some idea of what to expect size wise.
The fabric and over all quality of the bag is excellent. The zippers seem to work very smoothly and are of excellent quality. I think it will serve my purposes of carrying my T2i/2-105 as well as my travel documents securly while traveling.

Pacsafe MetroSafe 250 Shoulder Bag Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Great day travel bag. The locking mechanism works and gives you the peace of mind. For it's small size, it could fit quite a number of items. I used it to hold my sunglasses, a small umbrella, a packable rain jacket, a small compact digital camera, a water 1 US pint bottle, a letter/A4 sized file (1/2 inch thick), passports. In a pinch, I could carry a medium telephoto lens. Not forgetting the front locking zip pouch that fits a pen, mobile phone, wallet with pockets for memory cards or other small items.

Pacsafe CarrySafe 200 Shoulder Strap Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I've got a couple of these that I use on my messenger bag, camera bag, and carry-on duffle. They are comfortable and hold up with daily use. It is especially nice to be able to secure your gear to a fixed object and lock your bag without having to remember to bring along an extra lock and cable. A great item both for travel and the daily commute.

Pacsafe MetroSafe 200 Anti-Theft Shoulder Bag Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My husband and I each took Pacsafe bags on our trip to Europe this fall. I took the slightly larger Pacsafe 200 and he used the smaller Pacsafe 100 for his camera. The Pacsafe system provided us with a great peace of mind. We did not have to worry about our bags being slashed or the zippers being opened and our things being taken. In Barcelona at Parc Guell, my husband observed a pick-pocketing team in action. A young girl of about 10 years old walked over to me, looked at my purse and went back to her father and shook her head, as in "I couldn't get anything". That's proof enough for me that these babies work.
The Pacsafe 200 easily held my iPod (the headphone passthrough is great!), cell phone, Canon A720 camera, several guidebooks, a bottle of water, umbrella, rain coat and plenty of other travel "comforts", as well as small purchases made along the way. There is an unprotected pocket on the back that lies against your body. This was great for items like maps and tour tickets that you wanted easy access to without undoing the tamper-proof zippers on rest of the purse. There is a top large section for bigger items, where I stored my rain jacket, camera and guidebooks. The front panel has two slots for electronics (iPod and cell phone) and some slots for pens, as well as a hook for your keys. There are two unprotected side pockets that you can slide a water bottle or umbrella into. I also used this for my camera in safer areas, when I wasn't taking pictures.
I highly recommend the MetroSafe 200 for those who would like a little extra room for their items when traveling, without being weighed down by a huge purse or tote bag. It could be used as an everyday purse for city dwellers. We spent three weeks in Europe and never had to worry that our electronics or our money would be taken. This was well worth the investment to buy this purse for the protection, peace of mind and also functionality and organization that it provided. I will certainly use again when I travel, and it doubles as a nice personal item for the plane.

Pacsafe Camsafe 100 Camera Shoulder Bag Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I purchased this bag for my wife to take with her on a trip to Europe. She's frequently concerned about theft, pickpockets, etc., so the security features of this bag are a great relief to her. (We also are using the PacSafe CarrySafe 100 camera strap, and she has a PacSafe purse.) She has back issues so small and light are very important to her.
We have a large camera bag at home for all the various cameras and parts we own. This is NOT the bag you want if you need to carry the kitchen sink with you to cover all possibilities.
That said, this bag does nicely to carry our Nikon D90 with both the 18-55mm lens and our 70-300 lens. It's a little tight on the side where the other lens is, and the pacsafe camera strap is a minor hassle since it does not lay as flat as a regular cloth one would, but that's a small price to pay for peace of mind. Instead of the extra lens, a small(ish) flash could probably fit in the same space, perhaps better than the larger lens (I don't think a big diffuser will fit, however). There is plenty of room in the case's front pouch for an extra battery, cleaning cloth, extra memory cards, IR remote and perhaps a couple of filters. You won't want to carry the AC charger in this case, however. No need to haul that around Paris while shooting, anyway... leave it in the hotel.
The bag looks a lot like a purse (I'll call it a small messenger bag when I carry it LOL). It doesn't scream NIKON or CANON or SONY in bright "steal me!" letters. It's subtle and low-key... perfect for it's intended use.
Construction is excellent. The wire "lock" that locks the zippers seems effective, but don't count on it, and it's a pain to set up. Any thief who is really after it will get it anyway. And any bag that closes with a plastic zipper is completely vulnerable to any ballpoint pen anyway, and this is no exception. PacSafe should consider other options, frankly.
As a camera bag, this is simply a nice, simple, small camera bag. It has the added offer of good protection against pickpockets and casual opportunistic theft... but nothing will stop a determined thief. If you'd like the extra peace of mind, however, and a nice camera bag to boot, this bag is well worth the price.

Pacsafe Luggage Citysafe 300 Oversized Bag Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this bag several months ago after I had purchased several Pacsafe, Citysafe bags for travel. I'm a nurse and sometimes have a lot of work related gear with me and this did the job. Perfect to organize books, stethoscope and blood pressure kit, pens, otoscope, etc. Also I have used it for travel and had my camera, travel guides, cosmetics, I pad, MP3 player, and meds. A great bag with a great size.I also appreciate the anti-theft features. I 've had admirers to ask about it. I have it in the brown. Would love it in red. I have about 7 pacsafe products and use them when I travel. Last year I took a MetroSafe bag and Citysafe to Canada and they accomadated my needs.

Pacsafe CitySafe 100 Anti-Theft Hand Bag Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is a great little bag, very well made. It's neat looking and sturdy but it has a couple of drawbacks. One is the cross body strap. Elsewhere I had seen one review that said the strap was too short to wear across the body but it was only one review among many and I gave it a shot. I am long waisted and over 5' 7" and the bag with the strap extended at its fullest made it awkward getting into the bag while still over the shoulder. It was doable, but awkward. Strap extends to 42.9 inches. The one picture I had seen of it worn that way must have used a model that was about 5' 2". The second issue is the almost worthless side pockets. They are rather narrow and won't fit my phone or my new iPod. Maybe good for a few pencils. There are two zippered pockets inside and a velcroed place for phone or music player but it's not too convenient for easy access if you're not worried about getting robbed.
I'm bummed since it's so well made and am returning it.

Pacsafe Metrosafe 100 Anti-Theft Shoulder Bag Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This bag is everything that it says it is. Very well made and organized inside. The only issue I had with it was that due to the way it is made it is quite stiff and because it is on the small size this limits access to what is inside.
I could get a fair bit of stuff in for how big the bag is, but keeping it accessible and organized over a day of site-seeing was a challenge. I had inside, iPod, pocket size digital camera, pocket size video camera and an mini tripod, plus credit cards, SD cards, lipstick, and a few other bits and pieces.
Maybe I was just trying to pack around too much stuff, but it was all "my" essentials for a day out touring and I wanted to be able to pack it all to not go back to the hotel.
Looking back I wish I had bought the next size larger bag the Pacsafe MetroSafe 200 Anti-Theft Shoulder Bag, but as for this one it is good, just small.

Pacsafe Venturesafe 100 Hip Pack Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Does what it's supposed to do. Kept my point-and-shoot camera, flash video camera, extra memory cards, wallet and passport in this. Everything was within comfortable reach and I had the peace of mind knowing that it was virtually impossible to be a victim of a pick-pocket.
One caveat, I have a 36" waist and can just barely expand the belt to a comfortable position.

Pacsafe Venturesafe 400 Travel Brief Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Ordered this bag for an upcoming European vacation because it has so many anti-theft features. I ordered a larger one that is really designed to be a laptop carrier although I will be using it as a purse. I like it because its size allows for all the things I like to keep with me when travelling and siteseeing (even includes a pouch that will easily hold a water bottle). It is exactly as billed and all of the locking zippers and compartments are wonderful. Also has a strap that allows for adjustments so it can be crossed over the chest to prevent a thief from snatching it off of an unsuspecting person's shoulder. I can add to this review after my trip if I find any disadvantages, but right out of the box, I give it five stars.

Pacsafe Venturesafe 200 Compact Travel Bag Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I hesitated to purchase this after the last reviewer left such a bad review, but having owned two PacSafe bags before this one and successfully traveling around the world with them, I decided to go ahead and take a gamble. I'm glad I did! I purchased it in the Sparrow color, which is a muted purple, almost a grey.. very nice. The shape and the size of it are great.. it's compact, but big enough to hold souvenirs that you might buy during a day (but then, I am not a girl who carries around a bunch of stuff in her purse.. for me, it'll be some cash, a credit card, a lip balm, and my iPod, leaving quite a bit of room in the bag). It seems quite sturdy and has all the usual PacSafe security features.. the clip to hold the zippers shut, the metal lining, etc.
I know that the previous reviewer was concerned about the security features. I think the bottom line is that you probably should not buy this bag thinking that you don't have to be careful at all. You cannot just leave it laying around and assume no one will mess with it. I am sure it is possible for a thief to get into this bag if it's left unattended. But if you are smart about it, walk around with it cross-shoulder and hanging in FRONT of you, I honestly can't see how a pickpocket could snatch your belongings without raising quite a ruckus. They're much more likely to just move on to the next unsuspecting tourist who doesn't have the pacsafe. I don't buy these bags assuming that I am guaranteed to not get pickpocketed, I buy them as an added measure of security to make me feel better walking around with a few things in a readily accessible place. I still keep my passport and all the really important items in a hidden pouch on my body just in case. If I'm going to a place like a beach, I leave the PacSafe in the hotel and I put my credit card, car keys, and whatever else into a waterproof container that stays with me while i'm swimming, snorkeling, etc.
So, thanks PacSafe for making a bag this size! My other two were a little too big and cumbersome to carry around as a daybag, and the pouches were way too small. This one fits the bill perfectly!

Pacsafe Luggage Venturesafe 25L Daypack Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I picked up this pack for a trip around Italy last summer. I loaded up the pack with a Domke insert Domke 720-240 FA-240 4 Compartment Insert (Gray) to give some padding for camera gear (SLR, 3 lenses, flash, and accessories). It also carried my iPad, chargers, GPS, batteries, maps, documents, etc... I still had room to roll up a windbreaker, and a hat into the back easily.
The pack worked well in very crowded areas where it would have been easy to open the pack without me knowing. I found twice that the zippers were attempted to be opened and were partially after standing in a massive crowd in Monza after the F1 race. They were unsuccessful due to the security clasps on the bag.
The pack did its job.
It was mostly comfortable after a couple days breaking it in.
I would recommend this to everyone doing some travel. The fact it doesn't look like a camera bag also helped keep the profile down on it. it's also pretty narrow which made it more comfortable to lug around the countryside and sit with it between my legs on a bus, in a cab, or on a train.

Pacsafe Luggage Venturesafe 300 Day Pack Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this bag for a recent trip to Italy - my first international trip - because I was concerned about petty theft. I had heard all kinds of stories from experienced travelers about pickpockets and thieves, and I specifically bought this bag for its security features. I can't say for sure how effective the security features are (how does one measure that?), but having this bag definitely put me at ease, and I had no problems with theft during my two-week trip (and I was in some pickpocket-heavy places). The larger, main pocket is great for items like notebooks or magazines (which I always carry, as a writer-grad student), with enough room for my travel journal, netbook and travel guides; the front pocket is perfect for keeping smaller things, like keys, camera and cash convenient. I kept my passport folio and credit cards in the "hidden pocket" in the back, which is deep enough that you can essentially keep these things "buried", and then I kept my daily spending cash in a little interior pocket in the front compartment. The water bottle pocket on the side was big enough to hold a full liter-size bottle (essential if you're in Italy in the summer), and - amazingly enough - even when the water bottle was wet from condensation or from filling, while the outside of the bag became wet, my items inside stayed perfectly dry. This bag even proved useful as an overnight bag on a trip to Venice - it was big enough to hold all my regular stuff, plus a set of clothes and toiletries for the next day.

Pacsafe Travelsafe 100 Anti-Theft Portable Safe Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I purchased the travelsafe two years ago before I started backpacking South America. It has been with me ever since and it's one of the best purchases I have ever made. It's large enough for me to put extra money, passport (I only carry a copy on my body), camera, mp3 player, and important documents. Yet at the same time, it's takes up very little room in my pack and the weight isn't noticeable at all. It came with several keys so I carry two on me at a time in different locations, just in case!
I usually lock it to the bed frame and then tuck it either under the bed, hidden by the sheets hanging down, or under the pillow with the cable hidden by the sheets. While I can't say if anyone has ever tried to get into it, it gives me great peace of mind that i can leave behind valuables in guest rooms without worrying about their security.
I'm heading to Europe this summer and I'm looking into other Pacsafe products that may be useful to bring.
