The Lino Collection: Astuccio IV Lens Pouch from Manfrotto is about an inch longer than the Astuccio III and provides the same serious level of security for your lens. The water-repellent nylon/leather exterior prevents moisture from seeping in while the well-padded interior guards against shock and incidental bumps and abrasions. The Astuccio will also keep dust, grime, dirt and other airborne contaminants from damaging your valuable optics.
The pouch is accessed via a dual zipper system that opens and closes on one side of the pouch. The dual zipper system means rapid access to your lens. As an additional point of closure, the flap is affixed with a strong touch fastener that seals before you activate the zippers. Once the pouch is closed, it can easily be nested within another bag, such as a backpack. The Astuccio IV Pouch is a reasonably-priced way to transport, store and guard your lens.
