Rugged Series Pro Camcorder Case for Large Pro Models - Shock Proof

Our review of this Rugged Series Pro camcorder case looks at whether photographers and videographers who own larger professional camcorders get the protection and storage they need. The bottom line: this case is built for gear-heavy users who need a water resistant, heavy duty bag that still travels comfortably. With thick padding, removable dividers and an adjustable shoulder strap, it balances protection and practicality for field shoots and transport between locations.

Key Features

• Water resistant exterior: Keeps equipment safer from light rain and splashes during travel or outdoor shoots.
• Padded interior with dividers: Eight configurable dividers allow a custom fit to protect a camcorder and accessories from impact.
• Adjustable shoulder strap: A removable strap and comfortable handle make it easier to carry heavy gear for longer periods.
• Multiple pockets: Two side pockets and a front pocket provide quick access to batteries, cables and small accessories.
• Durable construction: Rubber feet and sturdy materials reduce wear when setting the case down on rough surfaces.
• Included microfiber cloth: Allows quick lens and screen cleaning on the go to keep optics ready.

Who It's For

This case suits professional and prosumer users who own mid to large pro camcorders such as the HXR and PMW series and need a protective, transportable solution. The interior dimensions and heavy padding make it especially useful for shooters who carry a camera body, lens or two, and spare batteries and chargers.

It is less suited to users who want a minimalist sling or a hard roller case for airline checked baggage. If you need rigid flight-case level protection or wheeled transport for very heavy rigs, you should consider a different case type.

Pros & Cons

Cons
