Review on Neewer Photo Video Studio Kit Carrying Bag with Extra Side Pocket for Light Stands, Boom Stands, Umbrellas - 39x10x10 Inches by Mike Maez

I was looking for an equipment bag for my Manfrotto MT055XPRO3 aluminum tripod, as well as a Manfrotto 502 video head, Rode VideoMic video microphones, two tripods and some NEEWER lamps. This bag definitely ran a size, but I was concerned about the build quality and padding. The package arrived in two days (THANK YOU PREMIER) and the size and build quality were perfect. I'm always nervous when buying products with zips because sometimes buying discreetly online means you end up with a broken zip and a nightmare. This bag is not one of those bags - I tested this item myself and wore it for a while in all conditions. No problem. At first I was concerned about the stability of this bag - it's so big and so long - would this thing curl up and crush all my gear? But so far - no problems. No creases and the straps on either side of the center pocket add stability without crushing the very valuable contents of my bag. The only thing that bothers me about this bag (hence the four stars) is the amount of padding. Now I'm pretty paranoid. Man when it comes to protecting my photography gear so I went even further with this particular bag. I would love to see MORE padding in a bag that big, so my loving wife crocheted little bags inside for my tripods/gear. I also kept a few lenses on one side of the bag in a smaller pouch that fits nicely alongside all the tripods and other gear. If I can convince my wife that I need more photo gear, I'll probably buy another one.
