Someone over at YouTube was asking me about a travel bag for a Steadicam Vest, and I had mentioned at times I use a rolling duffle bag. A duffle is an inexpensive way to lug around a bunch of gear including light stands, tripods, monopods, etc. but doesn't always provide the best protection when everything is thrown in one area. This question reminded me about a cool looking Hybrid Rolling Duffle/Hard Case I ran into the other day which might be a better way to haul large odd sized equipment while keeping them separated.

This unique bag has a hard case at the bottom, might be good for storing items you'd like to have protected such as the Steadicam Arm, Light Stands, Monopods, or maybe even create a padded divider for lighting. The top is a flexible Duffle area for storing larger items like a padded stabilizer vest, cloth backdrops, extension cords, or other grip gear.

The brand name is 'FUL' and so far Amazon reviewers give it a full 5 star rating (see here). Might be worth looking at if you need a good travel duffle that has a separate protected hard case area. I found these same name brand bags listed on eBay starting as low as $62 dollars + FREE SHIPPING (here).
