Title: Beltpack models for UA5 (Lowepro or others)?
Post by: sunjan on April 05, 2005, 10:26:41 AM

Hi all,

I'm looking for a belt pack that will fit my gear:

2 x AT853Rx (uncut, with the 10 m cables)
UA5
flat LiIon batterypack for the UA5
JB3

I've been eyeing the Lowepro D-Res AW Beltpack (AKA 60AW Beltpack)
I can't find it on the official Lowepro site, maybe it's been phased out?

In Europe, getting thru the door is rarely a problem with a belt pack and a suitable fluffy jacket to cover it, but if you carry a separate bag or a back pack, the bouncers will ask to have a look.

Another reason for a belt pack is easy access to the gear in front of me (concealed by said jacket or overcoat), and both hands free when I stealth.

Are there other brands that I've forgotten to check out?!

Thanks,

Jan

check out the bags on geeks.com
silly-cheap, if they have one that fits, you'll have a hard time beating the price.
