2 HVXs in one carry-on?

[crs127]

Has anyone done this?
I did a search but couldnt find anything.
I called Abel NYC and they told me the Kata-oc84 could do this, anyone have any experience with this?
Thanks in advance.

The Ogio Ty 2 bag is made to hold two HVX200's. I have one, it's a bit skimpy but for the price it works.

Anyone else?

crs,

I've been using the SAME ty video bag from ogio for around 5 years now. 2 HVX's, and a MBP 17", and typically a manfrotto tripod attached to it as well...all as a carryon just about every single weekend. The zippers are finally starting to wear, but it's been a very, very solid bag. I would definitely recommend.

I've got a Kata carry on, can't recall the model number though because I don't have it with me at the moment.
Used it several times and it held a HVX, SLR, several lenses and a 15inch Macbook (will take up to 17inch).
It'll easily hold two HVXs. The only real concern and I guess no matter which bag you are using is the allowed carry on weight, I am always over.
They checked my carry on for weight once and I had to take stuff out, was pretty complicated situation.

Careful. I hate traveling with gear.

That's wierd...I've never once been weighed for carryons. I typically have two hvx's, a 17" MBP, and a tripod all attached to me #1 carryon. That's easily a 30-40 pound bag with all accesories in the bag too. Then I also carry a bag that holds my harddrive's, which is a stack of lacie 1.5TB's...weighs a good amount too. I'd be in a world of hurt if they told me to unload.

Dude, you're really lucky then! I've been flying quite often but one time they gave me a hard time. I believe that was British Airways, they also delayed my flight on the way back, will never travel with them again, ever.

I don't have the bag with me at the moment, but I checked on the Kata website and there would only be the OC84 which looks like the one I have. You can buy this with or without wheels. I have another Kata for my photo equipment, been using Kata for 2 years now and very satisfied.
