Gray Capsule-183 pictured |
The KATA D-Light Capsule-183 DL is stylish, functional lightweight, protective case which is designed to carry camcorders such as the Panasonic AG-HVX200, AG-HPX170 and AG-HMC150, the Canon XH A1s and XH G1s, the Sony HVR-V1, HVR-Z1, HVR-Z5, HVR-Z7 and similar. A TST RIB running down the middle of the bag and an Aluminum Skeleton stave which arcs across the mid section provide structural protection while light yet durable RipStop fabrics, Honeycomb Panels and Aeriform foams join together to create a lightweight protective compact case.
The protective rigid capsule design is asymmetric, so that when unfolding the two palm-shaped sides a large opening is created. This provides easy access to the camcorder, which is snugly secured between two sturdy Aeriform Dividers. The ample space on both sides of the camcorder easily fit cables, chargers, batteries and even a small monopod or tripod while in the zippered pockets one can fit filters, cards and other small accessories. When closing the bag a rigid tongue will automatically align the two palms for easy zip-up. Additional storage for accessories or personal effects is available in the full length external pocket.
The included Lens Pillow fits snugly under your lens to perfectly stabilize your camcorder. A Rain Cover is also included for protection in rough weather conditions. Carrying options include an interconnected 3 handle and 1 shoulder strap system, while Insertrolley connection is available for wheel-along transportation (Insertrolley not included, see accessories).
