New bag for XL1 sized camcorders
Just went on Lowepro’s website and found that they have what seems like a very decent bag, which is able to take the camera lenses and a few other accessories - they even do a smaller version for the XM1.
It’s a Commercial AW DV The bag features: - All weather cover -Two removable Professional AW SlipLock Side Pockets -Belt & Buckle I'm thinking of replacing my Vidcam 6 with this one, it seems to have more protection. URL: http://www.lowepro.com/pages/Series/ProAW/CommAWDV.htm All the best, Ed |

I bought a lowepro photo backpack and the quality is excellent, metal rustproof buckles and heavy straps. I was very impressed by lowepro 's quality and prices.

I had some posts about this bag in the "Carry on bag" string in the general discussions forum. It looks pretty good in the pictures and I asked if anyone had actually had their hands on one of these, i.e., actually stuffed an XL-1 into one.
I've used a lot of other Lowe stuff, back from their original ventures in the climbing arena, and it's always been high quality. I also have one of their still camera bags. I'm interested in the actual functionality of this bag. Wonder if anyone looked at one at NAB?

KATA's CCC-1
Something to consider.
When shopping for a case, I wanted good quality and for it to be able to allow me to keep the accessories on the camera. I was a little disappointed with the Kata CCC-1 case, because when you place the camera in the bag with the MA-200 attached, the audio wires which come out the right side of it get badly bent. The bag stats say it's a little over 6" at the narrowest (internally) but actually that measurement is at the seam at the rear. The narrowest section is actually about 4", right where the MA-200's wires stick out the side. I was considering sending it back but I squeezed the divider in and that made it OK, phew!
