Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. What is the best type of head to put on this? I initially thought of using some type of Gimbal head, but a salesman recommended a Sirui pan and tilt head. Any recommendations?

A: It depends on the type of shooting. If your doing video as well as photo, then a pan and tilt head or gimbal would be good, if your just shooting photo a ball head would work well.

Q: 2. How many bags of poly beads are needed?

A: The LensCoat LensSack Pro Beanbag Support measures 11 x 8 x 7.5", which is 10.82 liters. It is not an exact rectangle though; there is an opening at the bottom that will reduce the size of the bean bag. The Kinesis Poly Bead Fill for SafariSack 4.2 (B&H # KIR142) is 4.2 liters—I would recommend buying two bags.

Q: 4. it's come Empty or Filled with Sunflower Seeds?

Q: 6. will this fit correctly on my gitzo GT2530 EX tripod?

Q: 7. Will this fit over tripod leg protectors from Lens Coat and still support holding the tripod ?

A: According to Lenscoat's website it is shown in use without the leg protectors. I do not think the velcro attachment from the leg cushion will wrap firmly around the the leg with a protector on.

Q: 8. Is this just the inside pad or will have the leg neoprene pad ds too?

A: The LensCoat LegCushion is a pad and cover in one. It is made with LensCoat shock-absorbing foam and water-resistant Cordura and polyester material.

Q: 9. Is the strap long enough to wrap around the lens effectively attaching it so it can be moved with the lens?

A: Generally, the strap in the center of the LensCoat LensSack Beanbag Camera Support would not need to be wrapped around the lens in order to support it. The lens would simply rest on the Beanbag for support. Whether the strap is long enough to wrap around the lens would depend on the lens being used with it.

Q: 10. What about sewing quality and quality of materials? Does sewing damage with time?

A: We cannot say how long this will last as there are way too many variables on how one uses it. But LensCoat makes a good product and is a good company.
