- DESIGN—This rugged bean bag is for supporting a DSLR, mirrorless or video camera on a vehicle, car window, chair, table, tree limb, fence post or on the ground. It is quicker to use than a tripod. The bag has a zippered compartment—filler, such as polyethylene beads, buckwheat hulls, rice, beans etc.
- MODES OF USE—It can used in two modes: 1) camera support or 2) ballast mode—hang it on a tripod or light stand to stabilize in the wind or when using super-telephoto lenses. It is also for supporting a rife at the range.
- BUILD QUALITY—It is constructed of a combination of durable 400-denier and 420-denier Ripstop Nylon fabrics. We don’t use cheap polyester fabrics like many imports!). Additionally, the bottom has a rubberized-type fabric that keeps the sack in place when placed on a vehicle or other slick surface. It is double stitched throughout and reinforced at the webbing junction points.
- INTERNATIONAL TRAVEL—When traveling abroad take the empty version and fill it locally with rice, beans or bird seed. Then, upon completion of the shoot, dump the contents, returning home with an empty, compact bag.
- Designed & Crafted in the USA (some of the buckles or fabrics may be imported)
The SafariSack has been copied by others and we are flattered. It can be fastened to the top of a Land*over; which is common on safari; extend it with Y208 strap. Some of our photos are outdated as they have our old label. The new one is a round, white logo. The SafariSack has been in production for over ten years. It has been duplicated by others, but as they say, copying is the best form of flattery. The sacks have D-rings on the ends for carrying over the shoulder with a better shoulder strap (# Y215 is adjustable, unpadded and is 1” (25 mm wide). With the short sewn-in strap, it can be securely fastened to the rack on the top of a Land*over; which is common on safari...or your own mini-van or SUV; or extend it with a Y208 strap, which is ¾” wide (20mm).
