Amazon.com Product Description
The Bogen-Manfrotto MBAG70 unpadded tripod bag (27.5 inches) is a compact tripod bag with an end opening that allows for faster, quiver-style extraction and insertion of your tripod. The perfect complement to your camera's tripod, the MBAG70 features an easy-grip zip opening, high-quality durable materials, and a padded end that protects your tripod throughout.

The Manfrotto MBAG70 is slightly tapered in design to provide a better fit for your tripod when the head is still attached. The wider end of the bag accommodates the head without requiring you to remove all the levers. This tripod bag has a zip that extends down the length of the bag, but also fully opens the top end of the bag, allowing you to get your tripod in and out more easily, as well as more quickly. The logo-end cap of the MBAG70 is padded to offer protection to the all-important tripod head, while the rest of the bag is unpadded to reduce weight and bulk. This unit includes a convenient shoulder strap, and is constructed of ballistic nylon, zips and other materials that are top quality, with an innovative design and style in collaboration with Kata Carrying Systems. This bag can fit tripods up to 27 inches in length, and is backed by a manufacturer's 2-year warranty that can be increased to a 3-year warranty with online, or mail-in product registration.

Nice bag, but only wished...
This is a great bag, and fits great with my Manfrotto 190XB tripod with 486RC2 ballhead. Great quality heavy material gives protection against scratches and weather.
Only 2 things stopped me from giving 5 stars:
First, the zippers don't slide easily, so you really have to concentrate when trying to open the bag. But this could be because the bag is brand new, and it may loosen up with more use.
Secondly, the bag has a great stiff gray base at one of the ends, with the Manfrotto logo etched into it. However, I realised after that this wasn't the base, but the top opening which can be used to slide the tripod in and out without fully opening the bag. I just thought this would make a great base for when the bag is stored in a standing position.
Other than that, can't complain. Don't regret buying the bag, and just like their tripods, it's GREAT quality. Go for it!!!

Fine Bag for the Right Tripod/Head Combo
I ordered this bag with the intention of storing (not carrying around) my Manfrotto 190XPROB Tripod with the Manfrotto 804RC2 Pan/Tilt Head attached. I want to be able to toss it into my trunk without worrying about scratching it up. The length #'s looked perfect (bag=27.5", tripod/head=27"). But, the bag did not accomodate the 804RC2 handles that stick out. It was close but in the end it didn't work and i was never able to fully zip the bag closed. This bag should work just fine for the 190XPROB tripod with a ball head attached as long as the length #'s work out. I was then thinking about ordering the larger size bag (Manfrotto MBAG80) which would probably have worked, but I didn't want to spend that much money (>$50) on "just a bag". So I decided to go to REI and look for a bag of the appropriate size. In the end I found a matress stuff sack that was 7.25" x 28" (Thermarest Camp & Comfort Series Matress Stuff Sack Large). It fits the tripod/head combo perfectly and is an innexpensive solution if you just want to prevent the tripod/head from getting unnecessarily scratched up. I gave the MBAG70 4 stars because it is a well constructed bag which just didn't happen to work for my setup.

A great bag for the price.
This is a fantastic bag.

I use it to carry around my Gitzo GT2530 6X Carbon Fiber 2 Series 3 Section G-Lock Mountaineer Tripod with a Really Right stuff BH-40 ballhead attached. I thought I'd mention that because when I bought it I wish someone could have written what they were carrying with it.

It doesn't have padding, but that can be easily fixed. I bought a Slit Polyethylene Pipe & Tube Insulation 3/8inch Thick, 3-1/8inch Insulation ID, 6 ft ($5) that I bought and cut to size (note that it doesn't quite go all the way around but it was good enough for me) from McMasterCarr and I was good to go.

Great bag for this price range.
