Slashproof Security Shoulder Strap
The PacSafe CamSafe 200 Security Camera Bag is the only camera bag on the market that features a heavy duty anti-theft security strap that allows the CamSafe to be carried over the shoulder, around the waist, or by hand.
The CamSafe 200 Slashproof Security Strap features steel wire cables woven into the entire length of both sides of the strap.
The inclusion of these steel wires makes them very difficult to cut, or be pulled from the CamSafe bag by force. Additionally, these straps provide extra strength and support of the CamSafe bag.
The shoulder strap is fully adjustable so it can be worn over the shoulder or around the waist.
The strap can be extended for a full hang length of 28 inches, or shortened to 16 inches.
When the strap is worn around the waist, the combination lock prevents someone from unhooking the strap from behind and taking the case.
The strap is 1 ½ inches wide and covered with nylon web material.
CamSafe 200 Combination Lock Prevents Bag Pilferage and Theft
The security strap features a built-in 3 dial metal combination lock which is permanently attached to the strap with a steel "D" ring.
The CamSafe combination lock is used to secure the bag to a fixed object such as a chair, pole, car seat track, or desk.
The lock can also be deployed without using changing the combination, allowing the bag to be temporally attached and removed.
This is commonly used when the bag is set down at outdoor café tables, coffee houses, or other venues where you may have to set your camera bag down for a moment.
If you are going to leave your CamSafe alone, such as in a hotel room or other unsecured venue, the owner would set the combination for additional security.
See the end of this product page for additional information of the lock functions.
CamSafe Organizational Features
The CamSafe was designed to provide numerous storage options that any photographer will enjoy.
Main Compartment
The main compartment is covered by the bags top dual zippered cover which opens to the rear for easy access and added security.
The cover also features an nylon overlap which conceals the zippers and zipper tracks from view, as well as providing additional protection from accidental snags unzipping the cover by accident.
Once opened, the main compartment is padded, and designed to hold a large digital camera with the lens attached. The internal height of the camera compartment is 7 1/2 inches, which will accommodate a typical digital camera with an attached lens length of 3 inches. If you wanted to separate the lens, the following is a typical camera configuration that fits: One one side a Nikon D300 and the other would be the matching 18-200 lens, or another would be a Nikon D40 with Sigma 10-20 lens on the other side.
Additionally, the main compartment is divided into two sections, one for the camera, and the other for an additional camera lens. The camera and lens will be separated by a removable padded divider. Generally speaking the main compartment is 9.8 inches wide, but the material can be expanded a little more if needed. Of course the main pocket is separated by a cloth divider which is held in place by Velcro.
A second divided is provided to provide a cover for one of the main pockets to allow for double storage of that section if needed.
Additionally, sewn into the side walls of the main compartment are two cloth covered, elastic banded slip pockets These pockets are 6 1/2 inches deep and 4 1/2 inches wide.
