Python blur backpack for creative professionals
Booq has introduced its latest backpack designed for creative professionals, the Python blur. The backpack features a ballistic nylon exterior with water resistant coating, as well as semi-rigid EVA foam for added impact protection. It’s designed to fit everything from an SLR camera with lenses, to a laptop, headphones, or various accessories. The camera and accessory compartment come padded for safety, and the collapsible internal divider can be folded down for optimum space.
Python blur offers two large side pockets accessories, a main compartment, a designated laptop section, two medium sized pockets made for CDs or back-up drives, and a top audiovisual compartment. To help keep everything tightly in place, the backpack is also equipped with YKK zippers which are said to be long-lasting.
The backpack is capable of holding anywhere from 13-inch to 15-inch sized laptops, as well as the 17-inch MacBook Pro. It can be purchased directly from Booq’s online site and is currently priced at $230.

Perfect for my MacBook Pro and Nikon SLR
I just ordered this backpack from http://www.coolcomputerbags.com. The booq site linked to them. I’ve gotten SO tired of carrying separate bags for my laptop and my Nikon, but the alternative was an unprotected camera. And they both go with me everywhere. So, while $229 is definitely a lot to spend on a bag, I think it’s going to be worth it. It’s a small price to pay if my camera and laptop are both protected and easily portable together. And, I got free shipping, too. Thanks to MacCNN for the recommendation!
