Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Sony LCSVA5 Medium Bag for DVD & MiniDV Camcorders
Customer Review: It's Huge
Summary: 3 Stars
I bought a Sony HDR-HC7 camcorder and bought this bag for it. This bag is HUGE. I planned on using it only for my tiny little camcorder and it's just way too big for it. I mean if you're going to stuff this thing with countless other things, you're going to run out of space with any bag. This thing measures about 1 1/2 foot long and 1 foot tall. Measure this out and you'll see how big it really is.Customer Review: Unsecure latch is a danger to your expensive camcorder...
Summary: 1 Stars
I have used this case on two back to back vacations traveling via plane around the world and then spending time on a boat. In the 45 days of vacation carring the bag almost constantly it has opened on me over a dozen time nearly spilling my expensive HC1 out over water or hard pavement (not good). After a bit of time I learned to anticipate that it would come open and avoided using the handle on top.
Addionally the bag is simply too big to fit in a carry on and take on a long trip. I was forced to abandone my F828 case and combine the two cameras in this case together to fit everything in the carry on. This was a poor arrangement since one of the cameras ended up below the bottom that your fit into the case forcing me to remove everything on the top layer to access the second camera. Not great when you are trying to catch that picture perfect moment which you end up missing since the camera you needed is under the other one!
The case is robust and held up well, but its size and the constant concern over this poorly designed latch comming open are enough to make one star too high a rating for this case.
Anyway as soon as I got to somewhere with a decent selection of cases I replaced this case and was much happier thereafter.
Customer Review: Latch is too sensitive
Summary: 1 Stars
The bag constantly opens up when the latch comes in contact with almost anything. It's very annoying to realize that the bag is wide open and you have to go thru it to make sure you didn't lose anything. It opened up about two dozen times in my 6-day trip. I had to use a strip of velcro to secure my camcorder inside the bag. I agree with other reviews here that the case is robust and does protect your investment ***if it can stay closed**** otherwise even 1 star is too high for this product.
