Backpack for fs7
Does anyone know of a backpack that could hold an assembled fs7?
Thanks-

Re: Backpack for fs7
I can get my assembled FS7 into a CineBags CB-25B Revolution Backpack as long as I take off the viewfinder loupe. I put it in a soft draw-string carrying case (came with a Canon lens a long time ago) and shove it in the compartment with the FS7.
I love this backpack on planes and trains. Still plenty of room for a computer, headphones, batteries, charger and even a small extra lens or two.

Re: Backpack for fs7
I should have mentioned, for the Lowepro back pack, I also have to remove the viewfinder. It goes into a padded division next to the camera. The handle will sit a bit proud of the compartment, but it will zip shut over it. I don't have to remove the mic, but normally I take it off. I have rotated the mic holder 180 degrees so it sits lower than the stock configuration. I have some pictures of the camera in the bag and will upload when I can find them.
The deep pockets on either side can accommodate a VCT-14 plate. Mark |

Re: Backpack for fs7
Oh, and I should have mentioned that I take the grip off. I don't normally have it on the camera at all so it slipped my mind. It might fit with the grip on but I don't recall.

Also I vote for the CineBags CB-25B Revolution Backpack. Many years hard travel, since it's earliest incarnation, and all going well.

Re: Backpack for fs7
Lowepro Pro Trekker 650 AW. Waist belt can be removed. Camera with mic, hand grip and viewfinder detached. I could fit a medium and small lens in the bag as well. Due to the handle sticking up in the middle, I wouldn't put a laptop in the back pocket. Comfortable shoulder straps. If you really wanted to keep your hand grip attached, you could re-arrange the dividers to accomplish that.
