[T-Series] Our tripod bags can be carried over a shoulder with a shoulder strap (not included) or worn as a backpack with an optional harness. Modes of Use
One question we get asked frequently is “I am carrying most of gear on a belt system and I want to carry a tripod, but I don't want to wear a large backpack just for attaching the tripod. What do I do? Kinesis tripod bags can be carried via three modes:
1. in one hand to your side
2. over one shoulder with an optional shoulder strap
3. as a ultra lightweight backpack (a Kinesis first) with a harness
General Features
All our tripod bags are unpadded, although we offer a simple foam insert (T220/T230) that provides cushioning for your back when it is worn as a backpack and protects the tripod when it is set down on a hard surface. Many of our competitors make padded (larger, non-collapsible) tripod bags which are designed for carrying tripods and/or several light stands.
• Unpadded, constructed of 500 denier Nylon DuPont® Cordura Plus fabric (an unpadded bag is collapsible).
• Heavy-duty self-healing #10 Self-healing Coil Zipper is used on the T720 & T730 models (the same big zipper is found on the main compartment of a Lowepro Trekker, Kinesis Journeyman or similar backpacks)
•Water repellent #8 coil zipper used on T620
• The bags feature a pair of compression straps which stabilizes the load when used as a pack
• Harness attachment point (same as our long lens cases). A Kinesis shoulder harness like the padded H245 or larger H250, H344 or H717) can be attached to a tripod bag, instantly converting it to a backpack. When used as a pack we recommend the Foam Insert to pad your back against the tripod. In this mode it can used with or without a belt.
• All bags have a zippered side pocket for extra quick-release plates, cable release or sync cords.
• These bags are only for NON-spiked feet tripods.
