LSL Posted April 14, 2010 Report Share Posted April 14, 2010 Hello, I'm looking for opinions on which bag you think is the best for the 702? I've tried it out in the petrol 302 Bag, the PB 7 bag and the Kata 4 bag. They each have their pluses and minuses. undecided... Looking for help Thanks, John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minister Posted April 15, 2010 Report Share Posted April 15, 2010 I think the best bag for the 702 is the Sound Devices bag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSL Posted April 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2010 It's seems so oversized. But thanks for your input. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadoStefanov Posted April 15, 2010 Report Share Posted April 15, 2010 The sound devices bag is small in comparison. If you want something very small there was a german company makes the smallest 7 series bag. http://www.filmtontechnik.de/334.html It's seems so oversized. But thanks for your input.

LSL Posted April 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2010 Is there a North American Dealer? That's just what I'm looking for. Thanks John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RadoStefanov Posted April 15, 2010 Report Share Posted April 15, 2010 No there is not. If you can wait till august I can bring you one. It is 99 euro plus 20 euro if I do not stop by Berlin. Is there a North American Dealer? That's just what I'm looking for. Thanks John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minister Posted April 15, 2010 Report Share Posted April 15, 2010 I was thinking of the CS-3. http://sounddevices.com/products/cs3master.htm Are you using this with a mixer? I take it, no? The front pouch does collapse. I think it fits the 702 better than the Portabrace. But if you are looking at the Filmtontechnik bag, yeah, it does not have a front pouch.

Andy P Posted April 15, 2010 Report Share Posted April 15, 2010 Hi John, I don't know if you guys are familiar with KT Systems bags? They're made here in the UK, are very well made and popular. They use a modular technique which enables you to add to your bag when you're using different pieces of kit. The photos below will tell the story better than I can. I have a couple of modules fastened together. The part for my 744 is actually a little tall, so I've made a foam base that fits around the battery and raises the 744 up a little. Have a look at their website too, but it's really old and clunky, and doesn't do them any favours it's got to be said. http://www.ktsystems.co.uk/ Just like filmtontecknik they can do any modifications you desire. I believe Gotham in New York sells them too. I never liked the Portabrace blue colour anyway :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy P Posted April 15, 2010 Report Share Posted April 15, 2010 Sorry about that guys, first time I've tried to post a picture! If you Right Click on the pitures and select "View Image" you can see it properly. Must investigate what I did wrong! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSL Posted April 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2010 Thanks Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Wielage Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 Must investigate what I did wrong! Gotta shrink it down first before you post it. Maybe about 1/4th that size would work. "View Image" doesn't work on a Mac, but we can at least temporarily reduce the webpage view size in Safari using command-minus. --Marc W.

LSL Posted April 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 If you option click or right click on your Mac you can "open image in new window". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Wielage Posted April 19, 2010 Report Share Posted April 19, 2010 Actually, control-click for those functions (or right-click for Mac users with 2-button mice). Safari can be an ornery beast -- the latest versions are screwing up a lot for me (4.0.5). All kinds of slow downs and Mac-weirdness. Back to the original subject: I actually like the Portabrace cases quite a bit. I think the final answer boils down to "what else do you need to cram into it," plus how many options you need. --Marc W. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSL Posted April 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2010 ya, that's what I meant, control click. : ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
