thse kenisis new? you didnt mention them last time snir so am assuming they may be.

they are not new at all. what do you mean last time? are you talking about the discussion we had about the lightware cases?

yeah, you recommended the lightware and a few others, no drama just thought they might be new because you didnt mention them

sorry Michael, i don't think i recommended the lightware in that thread (they do have great bags though) but i simply identified which bag Reed uses in the video sorry, if it caused some confusion...

no confusion i like the lowepro 600 anyway

cool back to the kinesis, what i like about them is that they are very light while still providing enough protection. i also like the fact that they are not so stiff which means that i can shove them in my luggage when i am flying and have them with me. the only down side to the kinesis is the backpack harness which is not as comfortable as the one of the lowepro 600..

i agree the 600 is very stiff and the kinesis looks great, i think i have your bug snir, i have bought like 4 bags in the space of a few weeks :P

don't even get me started, my wife just finished yelling at me because my bags are all over the house (and this is after getting rid of quite a few in the past few weeks..).

lol

i got

dakine sequence
lowepro side line shooter
lowepro 600W
4 x lowepro lens cases
tenba laptop bag
pelican 1624
pelican 1524
and a custom bag made from www.griffgear.com

all in the space of about 5 weeks :P

UGH! Thanks for the kgear link, Blonde. I have pieced together pretty extensive longlens, pack system that will allow me to carry everything I need with ease around race tracks etc. My wife hates these forums, I think you can guess why.

no problem Steve if you can do me a favor and post some pics of the setup that you got, that would be great. i am thinking about adding a few lens cases and pouchs to my L521 and need to see how it comes out...

im really liking their system, might have to add some more bags later o n :P

No sweat i will be glad to add some pics and small what i think about it all after I get it all setup and tried.

Oh yeah I forgot. I spent a lot of time on the phone with Richard and he asked what i shot mainly. He said he has a few motorsports clients and he custom made a waist harness/pouch system for a monpod to stick in for another client.

So he made one up that would hold the weight of a 600mm lens for me to try out and report back to him on how it worked out with my 600mm/monopod.

I'll let you know what it is like also if your interested.

sounds cool and this is another reason why Richard is so cool!!! when i bought my bag from them, i had a bunch of question regarding different lens pouches and how i can make them work and he tried everything while being on the phone with me

I am toting my Kinesis with me today on a trip. It never leaves my side.
