  • Three removable modular internal pouches which are supplied to hold loose accessories such as spare bulbs, connectors, batteries, small cables etc
  • Shallow compartment will hold light stands and umbrellas
TST (Thermo-Shield-Technology) protects the equipment while creating an extremely light product. The outer surface of the TST is thermo-formed in a protective "riibshape" construction. It is a double cord, water and dust proof, high tenacity and abrasion-resistance fabric. Underneath is a cross-linked, closed cell PE+EVA shield that provides insulation from cold, heat and moisture as well protection from impact and shock.
The Modi-Vers System allows you to create compartments that meet your requirements. The divider can be cut with scissors to any desired size. You can attach the newly cut divider to another divider or the walls of the bag with a special touch fastener connector.
Toblerone shock absorbers are made from synthetic thermo-rubber that absorbs shocks and protects the case from abrasion, dirt, mud and standing water.

      I got this to store and transport my 2 AB Einstein's and Manfrotto/Avenger lightstands. Fits everything and some reflectors with plenty of room to spare.

          Comments about Kata OC-97 Organizer Case:

          This was a great bag for about 6 months. I used this bag for about 4-6 Lowell lights, stands, and gels. This bag is not durable enough to travel with. After about 3 flights, I started to notice tears and holes forming on the outer shell. Soon after, these small holes turned into huge holes that kept me from using the outer pockets. I also had 3 of the 4 zippers completely break off. So now, I can't even close the bag. It came with a lifetime warranty, but I've been jumping through hoops for months just trying to get some sort of response. I can't recommend this bag if you need durability.

          Comments about Kata OC-97 Organizer Case:

          This is my first Kata bag/case and I absolutely love it. For years I've been lugging around bags without the luxury of wheels. Not only does this have wheels, but the wheels remove (along with the frame) and become a rolling cart. It's a little pricey, but worth the extra money.

          Comments about Kata OC-97 Organizer Case:

          This looked cool in the store and as I examined it further I realized that it was actually very functional. The large light kit I bought didn't fit in it, but my tripod and other stands did. Adjustable inserts make it easy to customize. Not too heavy, but padded and protective of my gear

            Easily holds 4 Arri light heads, I pack 2-300's and 2 650's with 4 stands, and all accessories. That weighs in at about 66 lbs. This case is very sturdy for shipping all around the country, shoot after shoot. Also, this case will keep your crew happy, as it is light enough to carry and load by one person. The 1st one we bought 2 years ago is still performing great.
