Tenba Cineluxe Shoulder Bag 21 Hightop (637-503)

After trying to cheap-out on a bag for my new Canon Pro Camcorder and returning two bargain bags. I decided to spend what it takes to get a quality bag for my new ENG set-up. The "Tenba Cineluxe Shoulder Bag 21" definitely checks all of the boxes. Very well thought-out and built with top quality fabrics, hardware and zippers. The Tenba bag just exudes quality and thoughtful design. It comes with a multitude of dividers. pouches and "wraps" to accommodate my camcorder (with attached Rode shotgun mic), a simple two rod rig, external monitor, video light, batteries, cables, tools, etc. The clever aluminum "beams" on each side of the primary zipper provide structural support and protection for my camera that is just not present in the lid of other "doctor style" bags. The adjustable, primary divider inside the bag is actually a piece of flexible aluminum strip wrapped in padding and microfiber cloth! The shoulder strap is literally the same material found in a luxury car seat belt! I like to have my equipment "grab and go" ready and with this Tenba bag, I'm ready for any video assignment (well, as long as I don't forget to grab my "audio bag" and my "tripod/video head" bag). I highly recommend you try this bag if you value quality construction and thoughtful design.5/19/2023: I recently picked up the backpack version of the Cinelux 21. If you are traveling light (say 22lbs total bag weight or less), this is a great bag. The straps are heavily padded and can be adjusted multiple ways to fit your size. I use it to carry my Canon Pro camcorder around at Airshows. It has room for everything I need, including a wireless mic transmitter & receiver. The doctor bag style is much more convenient than the traditional camera backpacks. Same exceptional quality as the shoulder bag.

Perfect size for my built fx30 no need to tear it down anymore. The bag is quite hefty when fully loaded. Padding is strong and robust offering proper protection. The doctor style design is almost addicting. Super effective highly recommended.Edit: Would be nice to have carabiner rings on all 4 sides to adapt backpack straps. The load is much easier to tolerate in this position and its size

I bought this bag b/c I take football, basketball and baseball pictures for my school's teams. I wanted something that I could take a variety of lenses in depending on which one I wanted to use. This bag is perfect. I have a different Tenba bag which is considerably smaller which I used to use when I was only taking 1 lens with my camera. It worked fine, but would constantly tip over when unzipped. This is great! It opens like a doctor's bag so I can easily access everything I need. But, with all of my stuff in there, it does get heavy. I think the only complaint I would have, is the shoulder strap doesn't stay on my shoulder when I am carrying it. It slips off. This is a fantastic bag though. I wouldn't hesitate to buy it again if I needed to. You really will not be disappointed with it.

After trying over 30 different bags and cases to bring my equipment to gigs and shoots, this has to be one of the top situational bags that I will continue to use.Why I love it:-My Rig can be pre-set prior to arriving on set or location, making it easy to open the bag and either go right into a handheld shot or easily mount on my tripod/slider.-Space, great pocket designs, lots of space to add additional lenses and extra gear needed for the set. Love the included padded cases that I use for my Atamos, audio recording gear, and wireless focus puller.-Quality and design is top of line.Why I wouldn't us it:-Shoulder Bags can be so heavy. I don't want to need a rolling case to alleviate the weight from shoulder/back/neck on shoots. I want a one bag fits all, with perhaps just needing a bag for my heavy duty tripod.-Travel, highly recommend getting a Pelican Case and Boundary Backpack set-up rather then a shoulder bag.What situations I would use this bag:-Vehicle, I am driving to the location and I can easily just swing this thing out and have my rig already pre-set. Music Videos or some short films where only one or two locations are being used.

What can I say this bag is so well made. Lots of room in side. I don't have to take my camera rig apart. Came with 2 wraps for cameras or lenses and a zipper pouch. Well padded with dividers. The construct of this bag is top notch. I'm vary impressed with it. Could not be happier. You will not be disappointed.

Bought this bag for a month long travel job. It definitely fits more than any other backpacks I've seen so far. Cubic inch size wise this bag beats the rest.During the travel, I was able to fit good amount of gear + personal stuff + laptop (which just sits on top of everything since there is no dedicated sleeve.) Extra lens wraps and pouches definitely were a plus.During work days, I was able to fit batteries, lenses, follow focus units, monitors, etc. Side bags were where I put either personal stuff, USb chargers, extra cables and etc.The dual strap works like a charm - secures the bag to your body and eliminates unnecessary bumps which can be tiring over time. Super comfortable, and even at times with 38lb of bag weight, I was able to travel with moderate comfortableness.However, now that I'm back from my travel, I'm not sure if this case really serves a purpose. I'll have to see where I can use it for. The vast majority of my gear sits in a pelican case, so I'm not sure about leaving gear in this bag. That's just a personal preference.My only complain is I hope they made some smaller pockets for me to leave keys and wallets. Side pockets did the job but it's not an easy access.
