softcase for xl1

Hey all,
Just purchased the portabrace HKP and must say it fits the xl1 like a glove. I don't have MA100 or 200, but there was space to spare for either that I currently use as an additional accessory compartment. I do alot of walking, up hills and stuff in the poconos and recommend this bag for its dual functions. Its a soft case for carrying or just a zip here and a zip there, pull out the shoulder straps and voila, instant backpack!

Hi Dan,

I bought the HKP a few weeks ago (and I have the MA100) and I love the thing! A great case and worth the price.

Just taken delivery of the Portabrace Traveller CTC-2.

My legs appreciate no longer being crippled by the Canon hard case......

It's a great nice case, isn't it? I recently got one, as well. I've also been hauling around a hard case, which was great to have in the event that I was run over by a pack of Humvees, but the Portabrace carries about as much, and is much easier on the body!

I own both the KATA TCCT "carry-on" for when I travel and the KATA CCC-3333 for when I am shooting locally. Very happy with both bags. I used to be a poster child for PortaBrace, they even did an article on my brother Daniel and I when we were in the USVI almost 10 years ago. I still own a couple PC-3 bags and they held up great - mint condition still,,, but they are more or less collecting dust now. I much prefer the Trolley system with the KATA cases I own, such as with the TCCT and especially the Multi-Long and Maze-3.
