Manufacturer Description The Tamrac Micro Explorer is a compact bag designed to carry and protect a digital camera and accessories such as an AC adaptor. It is also perfect for larger digital cameras (such as Canon's S3 IS and Nikon's 8800) or for compact digital camcorders (such as Canon's Optura 400). Can be carried with the EasyGrip handle or adjustable shoulder strap.

The main compartment features Tamrac's Dual-Foam Technology for shock protection and a custom fit to equipment. An external front pocket features Tamrac's patented Memory and Battery Management System, which uses red flags to identify which memory cards and batteries are available and which ones are used up. A Speed Pocket on the front flap secures and provides quick access to small accessories. A Total Coverage Top with quick-release buckle and zipper closures provides weather protection. Inside the lid is a smooth nylon pocket for holding lens cleaning paper. An adjustable shoulder strap, EasyGrip carrying handle, and belt loops provide convenient carrying options for the Micro Explorer.

Dual-Foam Technology
First instituted in our professional lens cases many years ago, Dual-Foam Technology is used in many of our bags today. It combines closed-cell foam to provide maximum shock protection with open-cell foam for vibration dampening and a custom fit.

Memory and Battery Management System
Many of our camera bags feature the patented Memory and Battery Management System, which provides quick access to memory cards, batteries, and accessories. This unique system uses red flags to identify available memory cards and batteries from ones that are used up.

Total Coverage Tops
Many Tamrac bags offer triple protection against rain, dust, and sand. Our Total Coverage Tops offer triple protection against the elements by providing three levels of security: hook and loop closures for quick access, EasySqueeze quick-release buckles for security, and a zipper closure for the ultimate weather protection.
