Tamrac 683 LightSpeed 3

John Rakis · July 29th, 2006, 08:15 PM

I'm considering the purchase the Tamrac 683 case to transport my light kit, but have not seen any on-line reviews. Does anyone have any experience with this case?

It looks like a well padded case. The depth would be great for fresnels. Keep in mind that its tough to find a light stand that will collapse to under 28".

I have several Bogen 3097 lightstands which collapse to 26". What I like about the case is that it meets the airline size requirement for checked luggage (although I prefer to ship ahead using FedEx) and has built in wheels. All in all, it appears to be a good case for a small light kit. But I have not yet come across anyone who owns one.
