wedding bag, roller etc? What are you using?

As i am about to upgrade my wedding bag to fit my equipment, I like to know what you use to store your equipment.

I am currently using a Kata 33N-3 bag but can't fit all my gears in.

I am thinking of getting a ThinkTank Security v2 or a Pelican 1620. Love to have a trolley to lessen the load on my shoulders.

I am trying to fit,
2x 5d3
1x 1dx
70-200 II
24L,35L,85L,100L
16-35L, 24-70L

if i can squeeze in my Elinchrom Quadra, it will be a bonus.

Thank you for sharing.

I use the TT Security V2.0, here's what I fit in it:

2x LED Flashlights
1x windproof butane torch (for lightning sparklers/lanterns)
100L Macro
70-200 f2.8 IS II
50 1.8 backup
Extension tube set (all 3 tubes)
Fong Dome
3 x speedlites
1 x 26" Octabox with bracket, front cover etc (Westcott RapidBox)
4 x YN622
2 x LP-E6
Speedlite feet
Roll of Gaffer tape
Rokinon 14mm f2.8
Small 5 in 1 reflector

I can see how fitting 2 ungripped 5d3 and the lenses would work, but I think the 1DX and Strobe might be pushing it. The thing would also be bloody heavy that fully loaded.

The 70-200 fits very precariously vertically, because of the handles it only fits in 1 cubby in the bag.

You can fit these in the TT Security V2 as long as cameras don't have any lens mounted to it.
I fit 2x 5d3, 24l, 35l, 50l, 16-35l, 100l, 70-200, 24-70 and 2 or 3 600EX. The 70-200 can stand vertical in this bag so it saves quiet a lot of space.
I also have a Tamrac rolling bag that could fit even more than the V2.

They will be hella heavy though.

You'll easily fit all that into a TT Security V2, bit tight on the top two cameras if they are both gripped but they will fit.
Probably get the Quadra in there as well - with room to spare.
This is what was in mine today

Another vote for a big think tank rolling bag - can't remember what model but if you search the wedding forum for one of the similar threads you'll find out.

thank you all for input.
I have already got the 1614 pelican. not fitting a lot of things in there but i guess, i am happy.

i can use it as a "sandbag" to weight down my lights. prevent my lights from dropping against strong wind.

few weeks back, my bag pack was almost run over by a car reversing behind me. I should not have left my gear bag behind a parked car.
any way, all safe. so the pelican case should be able to withstand car from rolling it over.

in the pelican case, currently only able to fit my
70-200 2.8, 100L, 35L, 16-35L, 1x 5d3 (backup) and 2x600ex-rt.

1dx, 1x5d3 with 85L and 24L stays outside the case as i will be using it. i can change the lens as i move along the day. think it will work.
still have my KATA bag to hold my lights etc.

Thanks.

your gonna laugh but i swear it works. and it fits in airlines overhead compartments

I use this husky rolling tool bag from Home depot. It costs $69.00 and it holds

2 5D3's
1 7D2

17-55 and 11-16, 135L, 35L, 50L, 85 1.8 and a 70-200 are in a bag at bottom of case.

my fish eye, macro, 17-35 and 24-105 4 speed lights, 4 YN622 triggers all in the 2nd bag and I can zip the thing closed to go into the overhead on the plane.

when im shooting i have 3 cameras ready to go and all i have to do is reach down and grab the one i want... so super easy

I dont need my bag to say think tank or anything else. I just need it to protect my gear and make it easy to get around. I roll everything. super easy

I have a pelican 1560 that i put all my ocf stuff inside and i check that when i fly but also easy to keep all my lighting in one place for regular work. it holds 2 cl360,s a cl180, triggers, batteries, video lights, and a bunch of other crap that comes along

Sorry for the bad photo iPhone in low light

What charging bay is that? I'm looking for one for my 16 eneloops

It's a Hähnel Ventra 8, works well however can only charge batteries in pairs, not a problem really though.

Wow thanks guys! lol I have a few to choose from now!

A Pelican 1524 for 2 cameras and 6 lenses. A Pelican 1614 for monolights, VML and related accessories. Two lightstand bags holding 4 lightstands and 3 umbrellas. A bigger light stand bag to hold 2 tripods and a monopod.
