5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect for the job!, March 23, 2005

This review is from: Sony LCSVCB Camcorder Carrying Case for most Sony Camcorders (Electronics)

I took delivery of one of these bags today because I've just purchased an HDR-FX1 and I'm about to walk around Japan for three weeks: oh the joy of it :-) I presumed that the bag was a container for the camcorder and nothing much more but I was wrong.
Firstly it is very well made (in China of course) and the padding on the side walls and 'roof' are exemplary: about 3/4 inch thick. It has good rubber feet and quality zip. The fabric is excellent quality and having used similar before I can attest to its durability. The camcorder fits perfectly inside with no rattling and there is a movable/removable velcroed partition to hold the lens hood separately if you prefer. The supplied shoulder strap is OK and usable but I immediately ordered an OP-Tech bag strap because I'm like that... The strap can be attached to hold the bag horizontally or vertically as you choose. The attachments are heavy duty steel rings on the bag and the usual clips on the strap.

Where the bag really scores is its additional storage. It has a large fold out pocket at each end which can hold quite a bit of smallish items (my electric shaver vanished inside one). It also has a large front pocket running the width of the bag which will happily hold (as tested) a Canon 10-22mm lens in a LowePro case and a Canon 580EX Speedlite in its case with room to spare. As you can tell I'm mixing my SLR kit with my video kit but you could fit most video accessories in the bag.

At the back of the bag is a zipped pocket (flat) containing the rain hood. Pull out the hood and wrap it around the bag to make it very water resistant. This covers the whole of the bag except the base (I think, not tested it but look at the Amazon image) and that includes what's on the top of the bag, it's finest moment... The bag has a tripod holder!!! Oh joy, I didn't know about this when I ordered it and it makes my life in the next few weeks so much easier! The top of the bag has a cunning set of straps and folds of fabric that will lock a small to medium pod down securely. You can still open the bag and extract the camcorder even with the tripod in place (genius) and I can remove the pod in a few seconds.

Finally: Sony has either been very lucky or very astute because with a tripod attached and all the pockets full the bag exactly matches the dimensions of the typical flight bag restrictions (Lufthansa's are spot on). Coincidence? Maybe but darned useful to be sure.

In conclusion: this is worth every cent and more. I will happily trust the security of my $4000 camcorder to it and that's all there is to be said.

5.0 out of 5 stars More than perfect for FX1, August 1, 2006

I bought this for my Sony FX1. It was the least expensive bag I could find that would accomodate the camcorder. But don't let the price fool you. it is better than bags costing hundreds of dollars more. Made from sturdy canvas with thick padding and plenty of pockets to hold accessories. I use the tripod strap on top to hold a small shoulder harness. so well designed. And you can't beat Amazon's price. it was about $60 less than the local stores here in LA.

Love this case...loaded with protective padding...heavy-duty zippers, storage galore....a "rain coat", tripod carrier.....just the best buy around. I have my new SONY FX7 Hi-Def camcorder and all accessories in it and just took it on an extensive trip. Compact and sturdy. Worth the price!
