AC130/160 length?

[firehawk]

Hi everyone.
Can someone with an AC130 or AC160 measure it? I'm trying to figure out if they will fit in my existing cases.
I know it seems like a dumb question because the online specs read 17.25" BUT....
When I bought the soft cases (AG YUSC60h)which were specifically for my DVC60 cameras the specs read 14.2" interior length for the case, while the camera length is 16 15/16" which means it would not fit. But of course it does fit nicely. The online specs were not correct. The DVX100B also fits nicely in the same cases and I'm hoping that the AC130/160 (and maybe the HPX 250) will fit as well, even though they look to be longer acording to the online specs.

i measured 16 inch long and 7 inches wide if you dont have any mic. with the view finder up it 14 inches long

The AC160/AC130/HPX250 are larger than the HMC150, which is slightly larger than the DVX100B. You probably will need a new case if your current case is snug. If you have dividers that you can move around, it might work.

Thank you, guys.
The case has dividers that move around so width should not be a problem. The DVX100B fits easily with room for headphones behind it even. The larger DVC60 (shoulder mount) fits without much room to spare and it's about 16" long. It's SPECS read: 8 5/16 x 8 7/8 x 16 15/16 Inches. I'll have to measure it when I get back again. So if the AC130 is about 16" and about 7" wide it may actually work.

Here is a photo below of my AC130 inside my Kata D-Light Capsule-183 carrying case. And here is the Kata web page with complete specs on it:

It is too short to also keep the shotgun mike mounted. But I will allow that inconvenience in order to have a shorter length case to carry.

Thanks for the info and pics everyone. I am looking at those suggested cases. Seeing pics of the AC130 makes me jealous. I want one
