Vivitar VIV-RGC-12 Deluxe Pro Camera Camcorder Rugged Carrying Case, X-Large (Black)

I purchased one of these a while back to use for my various audio gear. It is a pretty study bag with good interior space. The padding is closed cell foam and the gear seems well protected. There is a pocket in front that runs the length of the bag and is great for misc. items such as cables, straps, etc. There are two smallish side pockets, but with enough room for batteries, chargers, etc. All three pockets are padded. I liked being able to consolidate my equipment into one bag to keep it all organized and safe. I liked it well enough to purchase another one, this time for all my GoPro gear, gimbals, drone, etc. When I opened this bag for the first time, the zipper pull came off the bottom section of the zipper. Fortunately, there are two zippers for the main compartment, so the bag is still functional, however it doesn't say much for the build quality when the zipper breaks on the first pull. However, I do have to keep in mind that this is a very inexpensive bag and is one of the few big bags out there at a reasonable price, so I can live with one small issue. I did take two stars off due to the zipper issue. Overall, I am pleased with these bags. I normally have all these little bags/cases and it's nice to put them into one protected bag. It should make it easier to find stuff, too. I will probably take a closer look at that zipper pull an see if I can fix it. If not, it's not that big of a deal since there are two zipper pulls.

I love this bag. It’s big enough that there’s plenty of compartments for all of my video camera accessories. It’s also sturdy enough that I know my items are protected.

Surprising that something so inexpensive can hold a large shoulder-mount camera like my Panasonic AG-HMC80. Now, does it keep the camera shockproof? Unlikely, because the camera is literally squeezed in lengthwise, from lens to the rear audio jacks. However, I'm happy with the fact that it holds the camera - after you remove the inner padded/velcro'd compartments (nice, but not needed for my use). Btw, the padded compartments are velcro lined, as is the bag interior, with all sections being flexible in design. It comes divided into 10 sections which you can change and move around.As most here have said, the bag material is rugged and durable. I think the zippers are of medium quality. They'll last if you don't have rage issues.There are two zippered accessory pouches/pockets on the front and rear exterior of the bag and one running lengthwise on one side. The long one is 17" W x 5.5" H x 2" D. The front/rear ones are 7" W x 5.5" H x 2" D (the 'D'epth is subjective, depending on how much you stuff the pockets.Speaking of dimensions, under the Product Details blurb on the Amazon page for this bag it says: Product Dimensions: 22 x 11.5 x 10 inches. I'm assuming that's supposed to represent a somewhat exaggerated set of exterior dimensions -- and, if you measure the exterior from accessory pouch to accessory pouch, you might come close to 22" in length. Same with the other two specifications. I bought this bag based upon those specs so I could easily get my Panasonic cam in the bag. Like I said above, I can, but it's tight. I've no idea where those specs came from, but it's worth noting that the label-tag that came with the bag says its inner dimensions are 18" Length x 7" Wide x 10.5" Height. That's much more accurate and you should keep that in mind because it's the inner dimensions you'll want to know based upon what you're packing into it, right?Regardless of the discrepancies in dimensions I gave it 5 stars for durability, lightweight, pro appearance and style, value, and the fact that it holds my camera plus goodies in the exterior pockets.

The internal Velcro that holds the dividers doesn’t run the full height of the bag like other camera bags. Instead, there are two narrow strips running the length of the bag at the top and bottom so the dividers only attach at two points. The resulting connection is weak and the dividers don’t stay put.

It is exactly what I needed. Seems to be well made. I purchased this item to replace another item with the same exact style under different branding that supposedly had a lifetime warranty. Only problem was poor quality zipper tabs and the inability to make a claim. I hope this one stands up. Vivitar for me, has served me well for over 5 decades. I trust this product will be no different. Thank you.
