Camcorder Reviews

I bought this bag to hold a Sony DCTRV103 handycam. It has two velcro-fastened, padded dividers inside, but the camera takes up the entire space, so I have no use for them. I also carry the camera's power adaptor and AC cable, it's remote control, a couple of tapes, a 12-foot extension cord, and a handheld audio cassette recorder with is power adaptor. All this puts some strain on the bag's stitching, and it even did some small damage to the outer pocket zipper. All in all, it's a good bag, but its probably meant more for the DV-type camcorders, because they are a somewhat smaller than the Sony Handicam Hi8 series. Just make sure that everything you think you might need to carry for a shoot will fit comfortably, meaning without scratching or having to force zippers closed.

I used this case for the Canon Pro70 digital camera. It held the camera, the flash unit, the CF card reader, and battery charger very comfortably. At one point I was also carrying a USB hub, but not anymore. The bag went with me everywhere, it was sturdy, and protected my camera well. I've been all over the country with it and it has held up well.

i purchased this bag for a Sony DV camcorder. it's well padded sides and top gave great protection to the camera, and the dual zipper top is excellent for easily taking out and putting the camera back in. the only draw back is the space. the camera fits snuggly into the main compartment, but other than that, the only other things i could fit in the bag were one set of wires, and 2 extra tapes. so for short term trips, it's great, but for trips where you'll need to bring along a charger, extra batteries, etc., it won't do you much good.
