This giveaway is now closed. A winner has been chosen. Once we are able to get in touch with the winner, we will post a formal announcement.
You read the review, and you considered buying one for yourself. But before you spend your own money on the Lowepro Passport Sling, why not try to win one from Shutter Photo first. The truth is, I loved using the Passport Sling during our testing period. But one can only have so many bags. And this one is just a little too small for my needs. I could hog it all to myself on the light days where I don’t need to carry all of my gear – including my tripod. But that would just be selfish. I’d rather if one of Shutter Photo’s faithful readers were able to use it for their daily purposes. It is, after all, an exceptional bag for most of you. You can carry a small camera kit and a few personal items, sling it about your shoulder and be on your way. Public transportation users would especially love having one of their own.
How to Enter
Entering is simple. Just respond to this post – on the website (e-mail subscribers, you’ll have to visit the site) – and tell me that you’re interested and why you think this bag would be good for you. Your response does not affect your chances of winning. I simply like to hear about other people’s thoughts on such a fine bag. Please make sure that you’re e-mail address is accurate (e-mails are not shared with the public) as it will be our only means of contacting you.
Bonus Entry
You can earn an additional entry (that’s two entries in all) if you are a twitter user. All you have to do is follow us, @shutter_photo, and tweet something resembling the following:

If you wish to change it up, that’s fine. But make sure you include @shutter_photo and #spgive2 in order for your entry to count. Please don’t tweet more than once, it will not earn you extra entries.
Drawing & Announcement
Entries and responses posted after midnight (GMT) on June 25th will be ignored. At that time, we will randomly select a winner from the valid entries and make a formal announcement as soon as possible. We will contact the lucky winner via e-mail (again, make sure your e-mail is valid) to confirm shipping address. Shipping will be covered by Shutter Photo. The winner will not be responsible for any costs. Unfortunately, this means we can only ship within the United States.
