Tripod Bag: please recommend

[porkypig]

Hi all,

/me just got the PWP manfrotto tripod from the IT fair.

Next, obviously i want some bag for it.

Did some research on CS... but thought some of you might have better suggestions.


Kit: D90 + SB600
Reason to shoot: occational children parties, and overseas holiday (night cityscape)

reason to get a tripod bag: prevent knocks and dust

Heard that there is manfrotto series for pad-ed tripod bag.
Will head down to Cathay touch touch see see soon, but wanna get a general feel of price and suggestions on CS first... (never wrong to do more homework b4 a purchase right?)

Manfrotto tripod bag cost $50. No brand made-in-china ones cost $30. IMHO the no brand ones have thicker padding. So you are paying $20-$25 more for that big big manfrotto word on the outside of the bag.

It is up to you really. I prefer to save money, no words outside, no worries of people targeting me to steal my tripod.

For no brand tripod bags, I would check out mass sales or OP in SLS.
