Customer Reviews
Unsecure latch is a danger to your expensive camcorder...
I have used this case on two back to back vacations traveling via plane around the world and then spending time on a boat. In the 45 days of vacation carring the bag almost constantly it has opened on me over a dozen time nearly spilling my expensive HC1 out over water or hard pavement (not good). After a bit of time I learned to anticipate that it would come open and avoided using the handle on top.
Addionally the bag is simply too big to fit in a carry on and take on a long trip. I was forced to abandone my F828 case and combine the two cameras in this case together to fit everything in the carry on. This was a poor arrangement since one of the cameras ended up below the bottom that your fit into the case forcing me to remove everything on the top layer to access the second camera. Not great when you are trying to catch that picture perfect moment which you end up missing since the camera you needed is under the other one!
The case is robust and held up well, but its size and the constant concern over this poorly designed latch comming open are enough to make one star too high a rating for this case.
Anyway as soon as I got to somewhere with a decent selection of cases I replaced this case and was much happier thereafter.
Solid construction
This bag, expecially when compared to my older Ambico bag, is extremely well-built and sized conveniently. With the false bottom removed it easily accomodates my TRV-20 camcorder, Nikon 995 DSC, cell phone, and Ipaq handheld, with room to spare. The D-rings to which the strap attaches are securely fastened, and the single clasp gets you inside the bag and its compartments quickly and easily --- just make sure it is securely latched!
Could be a tad larger, but feels solid...
I bought this to store my Sony DCR-TRV310 camcordrer. I received it and noticed right away how it looked stylish (as almost all Sony products do), and also well built.
However, I'm a bit disappointed in how much it holds, or the lack thereof.
To be fair, I suppose I AM carrying quite a bit in it, more than most home users would probably be putting in there.
I have the following in the case, though it's quite a tight fit:
1) Camcorder (DCR-TRV310)
2) 0.6X wide-angle lens converter
3) Nightvision adapater (shoehorn)
4) ND filter
5) Cleaning tape
6) Pocket tripod
7) Tripod mount for larger tripod
8) Lens cap
9) Battery
10) One blank tape
Again, this all fits, and most of you reading this now are probably going, "What the hell is he talking about, that sounds monstorous!" and for most people yes, it is. However, many of those items don't take much space, and I had to struggle quite a bit to fit all of that inside.
In summary, for almost everybody, this is a great bag. Stylish, well built, and will fit your camcorder well. However, if you wish to include a bunch of accessories like I did above, it does get tight.
