Good HVX Camera Bag

[funnerfilms]

I make Snowboarding Movies where I need a functional waterproof or highly water + shock resistant camera bag for my HVX200 I just bought this week. It would be nice if it fit carry-on standard for planes. Does anyone recommend a certain one? Will the HVX200 fit into the Lowepro Primus AW Backpack? http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/con...il&Q=&sku=496004&is=REG&si=feat#goto_itemInfo

Much appreciated!

Have a look at kata. The 305, while almost too large, is great if you want to pack a bunch of gear. The 205 is small with just enough room for the HVX and some peripherals. I'm waiting on the 207 which I think will be perfect fit between the 305 and 205. They include a rain/sun cover which fits over the bag to add some extra protection.

I'm with Andy on the 207.

The CC-195 may be of interest to you if you just want a bag and not a back pack. I know it will take shock a lot better than the back pack.

the ty 2 bag is very crappy and of poor quality. i'd also suggest the kata 207.

I use the petrol cocoon pack when I'm out filming skiing. It has tons of space and it's comfortable to wear for long periods. I can fit my whole redrock system in it, HVX, batteries, rails, follow focus and a mattebox with room to spare. If you setup the dividers right, this bag can hold a ton of gear.

Anything that I can also use as a carry-on?

I think I'm going with the kata 205.

I like the lowepro bags. You can usually pick them up in your town and they are great bags and don't tell everyone.. hey, expensive camera inside like the other ones do.

if you can, try getting your hands on a burton f-stop bag theyre really roomy but still not too large. they only make a few a year so its tough to get one but you can always try!

I like the Burton Zoom Pack; just enough room for an HVX200 and lens accessories, and snacks. Check out the 2008 model (Called the 28L instead of the 29L) with a better padded laptop area and nicer zipps.
