It fits popular cameras such as the Sony PMW-EX1, HVR-V1U, HVR-Z1U, and HDR-FX1, Canon XH-A1 and XH-G1, and the Panasonic HVX-200. The cradle inside is adjustable and stays put to keep the camera from shifting. The case is made from 1000D Cordura nylon with a generous coating of polyurethane waterproofing, plus 1" thick foam padding. The bottom panel is reinforced with 8mm hollow-core plastic, foam layers, and a layer of slip-not fabric that adds an extra layer of protection against water, dirt, and grime with an easy wipe-off surface.

The CS-DV4 has a large exterior pocket for cables and an optional rain cover, a wide slip pocket for a white balance card, owner's manual, maps airline tickets, etc., and one small padded soft pouch. The case is carried by the removable, adjustable suede shoulder strap or the dual suede carrying handles.

Q: 1. Actual dimensions? The specs say "18x10x10" but I have the " 17 x 8 8.5" selected. I want the "18x10x10" but dont want the rain cover it make you purchase if you actually select the "18x10x10". Is this product "18x10x10" even though i have the "17 x 8 8.5" selected?

A: The interior dimensions of the PortaBrace DVO-2 DV bag are 17 x 8 x 8.5". Apologies for the error on the listing. We are fixing it now.

Q: 2. Will this fit a Panasonic HPX 170?

A: The manufacturer recommends this one AG-HPX170. I would say that while it is more expensive, it will work where as the QS-M4 will probably not fit well.

Q: 3. Can this be a carry on bag for an airplane?

A: Yes you can

Q: 4. will the Sony PXW Z190 fit in this case with accessories?

A: This will be a very tight fit for the Z190. Instead I would look at something a bit larger, such as the Arco Video Dr. Bag 30, B&H # ARCSD30B. This bag will be able to handle the Z190 and accessories. https://bhpho.to/2xRoYaa

Q: 5. Is it possible for the Sony fs7 to fit if the bag if the veiwfinder is not on?

A: This bag might be just a bit to tight for the Sony FS7. However Porta Brace does make some bags geared specifically for the FS7 that I think would be more appropriate. There is even a version that allows you to have the viewfinder on, the RIG-FS7XT.

Q: 6. Would this be able to take Canon XF200 with gun mic attached, plus a 15 Macbook Pro, AND be carry-on for flights? (Yes I de-mount mics and batts for transit, but want the one working bag...) Thanks

A: You can actually fit (quite snugly) a 15 Macbook Pro laptop in the side pocket, it just takes a bit of finesse. I regularly travel with a 13 Macbook Pro and a Panasonic AC-160 camera around the US. It won't fit under your seat because it is too long. You have to cram it in the overhead bin if your in a smaller domestic plane, but I've never had to check my bag.There are also two rigid foam slats that hold the bag upright. In a pinch I was able to take these out and fit 2 AC-160s back to back in the main compartment. But I couldn't fit a laptop in them at the same time. But to answer your question, I am right now able to test with my work 15 Macbook Pro and it will fit in the side. I used to use a generic bag that would actually fit under my seat, but it wasn't protecting my camera as much. I like this new bag and it is very sturdy, and it doesn't hurt my shoulder when carrying long distances like my old bag did.Best,Lane Wyrick

Q: 7. It looks as though this bag does not come with a strap, unlike similar Porta Brace bags. Is there a recommended strap for this bag, whether made by Porta Brace or anyone else?

A: This case comes with a strap so no need to purchase an additional strap. This is a great buy.

Q: 8. Does this rain cover allow for the LCD on a Sony HVR-V1 to be used?

A: There is a clear plastic cover on the left side of the rain cover. I have a similar camcorder (HDR-FX7) and if I had used the LCD screen it would have been difficult to see it. I highly recommend the cover though. It has saved me more then a few times during rain and snow. The way the cover surrounds the eyepiece there is no chance of moisture getting to the body of the camcorder.

Q: 9. Does this bag have a shoulder strap?

A: This does not come with a strap. Here is one that is good match. Porta Brace HB-15 Medium-Duty Black Flex Shoulder Strap (Metal Hooks) B&H # POHB15.

Q: 10. Will this fit canon xf400

A: It will not. This model is not designed for the XF400. Instead you would need BH #PORSXF400 which is. https://bhpho.to/32idEmf
