Kata KT CS-17 CS Camera Satchel Review

Kata KT CS-17 CS Camera Satchel
Customer Ratings: 3.5 stars
Buy Now
This bag is one of the few that is designed for carrying a 17 inch laptop and a basic set of camera equipment in one bag. The product description states that "the Kata CS-17 Camera Satchel holds a D/SLR Camera with lens attached, up to 2 lenses (the largest being a 70-200mm 2.8 with reversed hood), accessories and up to a 17-Inch laptop computer."

Unfortunately, the bag suffers from some design issues. Beginning with the point of contact. The bag's ( Gecko ) shoulder pad has small suction grips that prevent it from slipping. These also make it uncomfortable. Even when the bag is only half full, the "Gecko" pad cuts into your shoulder. If you fill the bag completely as per their product description (as shown in the images) it becomes very uncomfortable to carry the bag around. That totally defeats the point of advertising it as a "Camera Satchel". If you're not comfortable carrying your bag around with your equipment in it , you're probably not going to carry it around a lot.

Kata also put plastic hooks on the side of the bag to which the shoulder strap attaches to. Metal hooks are more durable. Saving a few dollars but putting the customers equipment at possible risk is not a smart decision.

On the outside, the bag has 2 external pockets, one which is small and can only be used for storing a set of keys ( it has a key chain clip ) and a packet of gum which may have been their design decision but is limiting for daily use. However, the second pocket is large enough to be useful and a pair of earphones, a cellphone, battery chargers and various cables (ipod, USB, firewire etc etc) can easily fit in there.

Some positive design aspects of the bag are

Inside, there is a dedicated laptop slot with adequate padding, A 17 inch notebook should fit in there and will be well protected. A 15 inch or 13 inch will fit easily with room to spare. On the right side of the laptop slot, there are 2 pen holders and a mobile phone slot.

There's a large middle pocket.This is where you store the camera insert. The camera insert is a large rectangular pouch. A camera with a 70-200mm lens attached, another lens, battery charger + flash will fit in the camera insert. Even with the camera insert inside, there's space for a 2.5 inch portable hard drive or a book in the middle pocket.

There's a third flat pocket for smaller items like notepads, MP3 players etc. At the back there's a document pocket which is useful for storing magazines and files. An expansion zipper runs across the bottom and sides of the bag. This is used to expand the width of the bag to allow it to hold extra gear. In real world use, it helps but not that much.

The bag seals up completely. Some other messenger bags have flaps which are open from the sides, so rain water can leak in and damage your equipment. The Kata CS-17 isn't like that. It has a 2 zipper system which will prevent water from leaking into the bag if you're ever caught in a downpour. Internally it is made out of Yelloop the bright yellow soft fabric that all Kata bags are made out of. The bright yellow fabric allows you to locate items more easily in dim lighting.

It has a comfortable and sturdy carrying handle. A lot of messenger bags are designed without handles. This can be inconvenient as you're forced to use the shoulder strap all the time. Kata smartly allows you to carry the bag as you see fit in briefcase mode or messenger mode. Near the handle, there's a quick access zipper opening on top which is convenient and allows you to insert and remove items out of the bag without having to open it up completely every time.

Included with the bag is Kata's double sided all weather protection cover which can be used to protect the bag in the event of rainfall or snow or used as a makeshift reflector.

This bag was designed to meet the needs of those who need a sling bag in which they can carry a large laptop and their basic camera kit. Unfortunately, due to a few design decisions, Kata has made a 4 / 5 star product into an average 3 star product. I'd recommend ordering it and seeing if it works for you, if it does, well and good. If not then return it.

Hope this helps!

This bag replaced a bag that came with my laptop. I bought this so I can take my camera with me on my business trips.

I can put a large 17" laptop, Nikon D80 w the 18-200mm lens and a flash. The only thing missing is a dedicated space for the laptop/business stuff like power pack, mouse, phone charger pad.

Best Deals for ONA Bowery Shoulder Bag/Insert (Field Tan)

It's tougher to design a small bag than a larger bag. A small bag with thick padding will carry very little, too thin on the construction and it is flimsy and lacks protection. Ona did a great job designing and building this bag. It is small enough to be carried everywhere, yet it is unobtrusive easily fitting the body without the unbalancing feeling of a medium or large bag. It will fit many configurations of camera/lens/accessories. It won't carry everything all at once, rather it fits one or two lenses. I purchased it to carry my camera and a flash unit, maybe fitting in a pancake lens also. Beautiful construction, this will last a lifetime, it is one of those bags that will look better with time. One last thing, there is no velcro, zippers or plastic buckles.

Got a spare battery and an international charger with a case for $10 can't complain, the case is a tight fit

Click Here For Most Helpful Customer Reviews >>

Well not a whole lot to report about the battery, it fits properly appears to charge normally and so far the capacity seems about the same as the OEM one.

The charger is of a semi universal type where the charger base is designed to accept a battery specific adapter. I have three of these. All the same bases output voltage / amperage.

The case is well made and it is semi ridged so it offers slightly more protection than a soft case. However for my Samsung WB-150 barely fits and the inside Velcro strap doesn't line up with where the gap is around the lens. If your camera doesn't have lens that sit above the body, this case would be fine.

Price can't be beat. Worth the purchase.

This bag was shown with the camera we ordered where Amazon tries to get you to buy other compatible products by implying they go together (buy both for $XX.XX, as if it is a deal when it is almost always just the two prices combined with no savings). The implication is that the two (sometimes three) products go together. My husband bought the camera for me for Christmas and bought the bag because it was made to look like it would work with the camera. It doesn't. My camera is the Kodak Z1015 IS, which is not very big in any case. This bag is much too small for it. If you are looking for a bag, check the measurements of the camera and the bag. Don't assume it will fit just because Amazon implies they go together. Disappointed -not worth the cost of shipping it back, so we're just out the cost of the bag.

it is a very dissapointing bag. It is way to small for most kodak cameras.

It is way to cheaply made and is now considered a gigantic rip off. they should be selling the bag at 6.00 dollars not 16.00 dollar. I am going to return the bag. I would not ever recommend this bag to anyone. Dont ever buy this bag.

This case is not something I would take out in the field, but for storing my gear at home, it is great. I like that the compartments are deep and you can move the little velcro separator-things around to fit your stuff. I have several small prime lenses and none of them have their own cases, so I stack them with one of the small separator-things in between lenses. I also like that there are several little pockets on the inside and outside which is great for keeping filters, extra batteries, etc. I have a smaller bag that I use when I go out with my camera, but this one suits my intended usage just fine. And--bonus!--it's really cheap (as in price, not quality)!!!

I purchased this DSLR as, 1) I prefer the SLR format, something I am used to and, 2) I have had a lot of experience using an older Pentax SLR. Even though the older unit was film format (the basic K1000 model), it served me very well for over 20 years with no problems, easy use, and excellent photos. The older SLR camera was used all over the world from cold climes of eastern Europe's mountain tops to the sultry/humid jungles along the Amazon River. It took the trips and use well in such environments and performed wonderfully. So I was pre-disposed to Pentax at the outset. I did several comparisons to the other brands and even though I have a large Nikon SLR now, I went with this Pentax DSLR for a variety of reasons. Among these were the crystal clear screen and the extensive menu of available functions to utilize with it. To date I have obtained wonderfully crisp and clear photos in situations ranging from early dawn to sunsets, landscapes to kids, and the places I have taken it are not what one would call "forgiving" for sensitive photo-systems. In short, this baby performs. I chose the 28mm to 80mm zoom along with a 150mm additional lens. Good choices for me as all have performed very well and when interfaced with my laptop, touch-ups and edits are a breeze! Believe me, I have recieved many "oooh's" and "ahhh's" with my photos from this. But the camera does not do all the work. One needs to have a grasp on the basic elements of photography in order to achieve the desired product. The point of this review is to define that the camera has all the features that, when properly used, give whatever one may wish to obtain. One main warning: learn to use the manual until you are familiar with the levels of controls available in the on-board menu. They are extensive, ranging from simple point and click photos to making videos (battery draining, for sure). In addition, a hand-held remote shutter control is cheap and great to have at times. So I recommend the camera system, available here on Amazon at a very competitive price. In fact, best prices and availability. The camera? Really good, very functional, tough and durable as I have taken it into some rough, hot/humid and extremely cold envrionments, and it kept on working just great. Is it as beautiful to look at as the Nikons or even Canons? No. But it will do about whatever those models can and at a much more affordable price. I give it a "4 star" rating as it simply is not the most deluxe model one could obtain. But it is a worker and its photos are tremendous in the right hands. Great Photos for All! Daryl

Customer Ratings: 3 stars

This case for the Nikon P7000 is OK but has 2 flaws. First, the snaps aren't very secure, allowing the cover to fall off. And second, if the cover does stay snapped, it folds in front of the lens, making it necessary to remove the cover. A proper case would allow the cover to securely dangle below the camera, stay connected, and not obscure the lens.

the case and design looks nice but the bottom snap after second use came apart , although side snap are alright, I wish they beef up the bottom snap which is frequently being open and close.

Best Deals for COSMOS ® Black Leather Case Cover Bag For Nikon P7000 Camera

Unlike the previous reviewers, I find this case is similar to the old style range finder and compact camera cases. The bottom half is form fitted and is attached to the tripod connection. The top half wraps around the camera from the back and swivels by two side snap buttons and locks with a snap button at the bottom. The case fits perfectly and is well padded.

All snap buttons are pretty firm and they stay in place unless you need to pull them open. The front is somewhat firm so it can be hard to snap close, but stays pretty secure when closed. When you flip open the top, the top flips back behind the finder and stays attached via the two side snaps. Very convenient so you can leave the top on and still see both the LCD and view finder to take pictures. If you need to, or find the top gets in the way, you can easily take it off by removing the two side buttons, and leaving the bottom half on to protect it.

All buttons and controls are accessible and you can attach a tripod to the bottom of the case without taking it off. I highly recommend this case if you have this camera.

The case is a bit tight for my olympus stylus, which made it bulge in the middle. Also the zipper pulls jangle and make noise, and the zipper catches on the inner fabric constantly. Not that I was expecting much from a $4 camera case, but this one isn't worth even that. Maybe it would be ok as a minimalist pouch for a slimmer camera.

Review of Sony MPKTHA Marine Pack for the DSCT1 Digital Camera

Sony MPKTHA Marine Pack for the DSCT1 Digital Camera
Customer Ratings: 3.5 stars
Buy Now
Just to clarify another reviewer's bad experience with this product. I've used the Marine Pack on several dives and it worked fine. It didn't flood and I didn't even get any moisture inside the housing. Sony recommends to test the housing for 10 seconds at 30cm deep, then for a couple of minutes; I've done it systematically prior to every dive IN A SINK, not in open water. Blaming Sony for a flooded camera housing is unfair, blaming them for taking legal precautions is plain ------. A responsible diver would always check his equipment prior to a dive. So would a responsible underwater photographer. I give it a 4 stars because it does what a cheap housing is supposed to do: it lets you take nice, non-professional, non-artistic holiday (underwater) snapshots. It is by the way very slim and fits nicely into a BCD pocket. Setting it up is very easy and the 5 minute post-dive maintenance is straightforward. Good product, if the user is not foolish. Naturally.

Everyone else summed it up nicely if you want a waterproof camera for casual use, this will work.

Be careful, though with the camera inside, this apparatus will sink like a rock. If you're as clumsy as me, you'll want to make a float for it. I took a small empty soda bottle, closed it tightly, and tied it to the housing with a string. When accidentally dropped into the water, it will float and the soda bottle will be visible. If it weren't for this, my camera would be sitting on the bottom of a river in Jamaica right now.

This fits my x100 perfectly, and it appears to be real leather, not only from the feel and smell, but from a couple of the edges on the product, where you can see a bit of unblackened, fibrous leather. The case is stylish in a retro way, and nice and stout. Any x100 clad in this will be able to take some pretty significant bumps without showing a mark.

I have the JJC lens hood adapter on the front of my lens, and that, plus the lens cap, still fit inside this case. It'd be extra cool if they made one with a bit wider/longer lens front to accomodate the hood too, but that's probably way too much wishful thinking.

The included strap is also nice, but a bit longer than the original. If you sling around head and arm, that might be helpful. I usually hang the x100 just around my neck, and this is bouncing at belt height on me, and I'm 6'3".

I remember the days 50 or so years ago when the leather eveready case that came with the camera got in the way of taking photos so was discarded. But finding a useful and protective way to carry the X100 and preserve its quickness hasn't been that easy either. It doesn't exactly fit on a belt like a smaller point and shoot and it doesnt really need to go in a little soft shoulder bag like a micro 4/3 and a bunch of lenses. So when I saw this case I thought I'd try it. The price compared to what appears to be the same as Fujifilm offering (1/5 to 1/6)decided it. The quality is way better than expected. It certainly will protect the X100 in nostalgic style.

Whether it will work better to take pictures this time around is yet to be seen.Fujifilm LC-X100 Leather Case for X100

Best Deals for Fujifilm FinePix X100 Leather Camera Case -Black

I've been wanting a case for my X100 since I got it last year, but there's no way I would pay what Fuji wants for it. I'd looked at a few alternatives, like the Rainbow Imaging leather case here on Amazon which is about $80-90 I believe. Still a little expensive. I didn't even know this case existed until I happened to come across someone recommending it on a forum. Because it's black I think it's even better looking than the official Fuji one (why would you put a brown case on a black and silver camera?). Upon receiving it I was very happy with the quality, it's very well made, forms to the camera well, and had a nice, rich leathery smell. I half expected it to be of a pleather material for this price, but it really feels like real leather. I have heard that it's just imitation leather, however. Fooled me. I never really cared for the top half of these half-cases, but it does fit over the camera as it should and protects it nice and snugly. I like that this one doesn't screw into the tripod hole at the bottom of the camera but but uses the little leather "arms" to wrap over the neck strap lugs just like the Fuji case. There's a Fujifilm logo on the part that covers the lens that doesn't appear in the picture, as well as an X100 logo on the top part of the case. There are no markings or logos on the inside half on the camera.

One thing I didn't understand when I first put the camera in was why it was sitting so high up in the case, like it couldn't really completely sit into it. I noticed at the bottom of the case there's a little pad or something to keep the bottom protected, but with it in, the focus selection switch couldn't even meet up with the hole for it in the case. The bottom "pad" thing can be easily removed, it's just stuck in there with some mild glue, it's not even sewn in. I took it out and laid some thin felt down to cover the exposed cork or whatever it is and now the camera sits fully into the case and everything is right where it should be.

Overall I'm very happy with the craftsmanship, quality, and added protection and comfort this case adds to the camera.

Delivery was right on time, and once I opened it up I put my nexus inside and zipped the top closed, I was truly satisfied.

Customer Ratings: 4 stars

Its difficult to understand some of the other reviews of this product given their negative nature. Mine is pretty flawless. The stitching is perfect. It fits the camera body snugly as it should. The leather is good quality. The camera *is* secured in the case by snaps around the carrying strap there is no way it could fall out contrary to one of the reviews.

The strap has a velour-like side that fits toward the body making it non-slip, a nice touch. Of course the strap may be used independently of the case.

Half of the case may be removed (using two snaps) leaving the camera protected in a half case.

Case is fully lined with a soft material to prevent the leather from abrading the camera body.

The quality and design of the case befits the retro design of the Fuji X20 camera. Anyone who has commented thought the camera/case was a film camera from the sixties take note if you're a hipster.

My sole criticism is the strap length is not adjustable.

Overall a well made and well designed product that I would recommend to any Fujifilm X20 owner. A camera that expensive should come with a case like this...

I'm using this with an X-20. For storage or travel it offers excellent total protection. The quality is very good, it is sturdy and it looks great. Mine is darker than the photo but that's OK. The top easily snaps off as you would expect. A very good value for the money. But equally important for me is protection for the camera while shooting with the top removed and therein lies a limitation.

As others have noted, but I missed, the bottom is held on to the camera by short leather straps that snap around a carrying strap. That undoubtedly works OK if you use a carrying strap. But this is a liability if you use a hand strap. While shooting, I always remove the case top. But even with the top off, this one attachment point means the bottom just doesn't want to stay on snugly. I'm always aware I need to hold it just right, and that is a distraction while trying to pay attention to details. I'm going to try to find a small metal O-ring the leather strap will fit through to attach to the unused lug, or maybe try to figure how to use the tripod attachment as it is on the opposite side of the hand strap?

Honest reviews on Leather Camera Bag Case For Fujifilm FUJI Finepix X10 LC-X10 Brown

Just to be clear, I had too high of expectations for a $20 leather case. This product is what I should have expected for the cost, nothing more and nothing less. The leather is PU leather, which is not surprising, and is not of the highest quality. After spending about 20 minutes with sharp scissors, a lighter, a metal clip, and a dental tool I am much happier (the work was done while I was on conference calls, so no big deal). There just needed to be a bit of cleanup done on the stitching and a little trimming done, but that was pretty easy to resolve.

There are a few fit "issues". on the back of the camera (oh, yeah! I have this on an X20) the case overlaps the bottom of the LCD. not a big deal, but can feel a bit sloppy. The case is not a real tight fit, and has gapping on different areas. I am working on fixing this and will update with my success. The most troubling point is that there is a gap on the inside lining. while not a major issue from a protection standpoint, it does show me that I need to make sure all of the seams are glued well so it doesn't start to separate. Again, this will probably just take a few minutes to fix and some good glue. There is also a seam on the top front that was not properly tucked. This one I am not quite sure how to fix because the leather is not long enough to be forced into the seam; this will probably result in more glue work.

The case matches the product picture well, and it does have "X10" embossed into the top. I will add pictures when I can that show the areas I am talking about.

All in all, if you are just looking for basic protection at a low cost or if you want to try an ever-ready type of case, it is a good short term but before investing in a $100 full leather case.

I am very happy with the seller's fulfillment of my order, and have zero complaints about them! I am just a little disappointed in the product itself...

I've used this backpack on two hikes since I got it. One was a 2.5 day event and it performed great. Very comfortable. I was kind of concerned about the length of it as I wasn't sure if the body with grip, 500mm lens and the 1.5X TC would fit when all attached; but it fits without a problem.

Contents included:

Canon Digital Rebel XT with grip

Canon f4 500mmL lens

Canon 100-400mmL lens

Kenko 1.5X TC

Canon f1.8 50mm

Kit lens

Canon 430EX Speedlight

Numerous memory cards and batteries

Nice pack for the 2 Canon Cameras including lenses and all the other stuff.

It is very well constructed and the layout is good. Once the Laptop goes in, the pack it will be full. Good for travel, but not for just short point and shoot outings. Great product.

I've owned this backpack for a year and it is true expedition quality. Everything is easily accessed and well thought out as well as very well padded. It holds my 300 f2.8 mounted as well as all of my travel lenses, spare body and all accessories.

Very heavily made, appears it will last forever. True well padded hip belt for pack support. I love it!!!!
