Bags/Cases
PROKIT are the UK importers of protective, professional camera bags including Petrol Bags - renowned for their high level of protection. Innovative, thoughtful designs, combined with attractive prices and good stockholding by PROKIT, have seen Petrol Bags popularity rise and rise.
The original Petrol Bag concept revolved around an internal skeleton to provide unprecedented durability and protection. This feature is incorporated into the Camera Cages, Tripod Cages and the market leading Petrol Lite Cases. Different sizes accommodate various configurations.
'Doctor Petrol' camera bags, semi-hard for protection and comfort, have a hinged top which unzips smoothly and opens extra wide to reveal a generous central compartment.
Camera 'U' bags feature an ultra wide "U" shaped opening allowing for insertion of the camera without shifting the viewfinder position. Includes Petrol exclusive cold-moulded laminate panels for protection.
Sound gear is kept safe, orderly and workable with Petrol Eargoniser and Mixer bags.
Petrol also provides excellent solutions for protecting and carrying monitors, boom poles, tripods and more.
PROKIT is also an appointed UK dealer for the full range of Portabrace, Lowepro and Kata Bags....offered at competitive prices.
Pelican Cases are indestructible, and fully endorsed by PROKIT. Features of the range include a watertight 'O' ring seal, double step latch, stainless steel hinge, automatic pressure valve, interiors with either 'pick n pluck foam or adjustable dividers, and a huge choice of sizes.
We stock a fine selection of professional camera bags and cases at great prices too.
The best professional soft camera bags are designed to fit the person carrying them, not the camera. Choose one for comfort, as well as protection and practicality. Some professional camera bags and cases will carry more accessories than others. We stock tripod bags, camera backpacks, camera rain covers, and camcorder LCD shades too. For tougher environments a weatherproof Peli case is a great choice.
Rain Covers slip easliy over a camera or camcorder to provide excellent protection from rain, snow, sand or dust. They allow clear visibilty of the camera's controls and good access to them, without compromising the need to protect. Rain deflectors encircle the lens without covering the front element. An on-camera microphone can be covered completely, or left slightly exposed. Covers fit tightly around eyepieces.
When it comes to lighting kit bags, Petrol are the leader. The PLC range of 3 sizes is tough, practical and versatile. Wheels and a pull-up handle are built in. Lowel make an excellent range of hard and soft cases for their compact heads. We also stock unpadded lighting kit bags for rolls of lighting gel and stands, as well as some padded bags for stands only. If a sand bag is a bag, then we stock them too!
Not for your kit, but for YOU. Cleverly, the "anti-gravity" handle puts 85% of the weight over the wheels, making lugging 20Kg of clothes much easier. You can rest your camera bag on the Live Luggage handle's shelf. Some of the designs have a removable laptop and weekend bag, or a rucksack. You can check-in the whole bag, or remove the two pieces and treat as hand luggage.
After many years of compromise, the mixer organiser bag has evolved into a practical, versatile, comfortable, and intelligent design. The Petrol Bag range exemplifies these qualities. Petrol Bags are suitable for mixer, radio mics, recorder, battery, phones and cables of all makes. We have extended-wear harnesses, raincovers, personal transmitter pouches and boom pole protectors too. For tougher environments a weatherproof Peli case is a great choice.
Location LCD Monitors need protection from knocks and bumps, as well as shading from the sun. A good field monitor bag acheives both, without operational compromise. Consider also whether your monitor will be camera mounted, hand held, neck worn, or floor / table mounted.
Of course many tripod manufacturers provide bags with their systems. If this bag becomes damaged or lost, then buying an "after market" tripod bag may well be the best option for performance and value.
Soft cases are best for operational and ergonomic reasons, but for ultimate protection, choose a hard case. A hard case can withstand impact, moisture and dust, and have other equipment stacked on top of it. Whilst other manufacturers have come and gone over the years, Pelican continue to offer the best. Choose from a vast range for almost every single item or mix of equipment. Their cases are functional, strong, flexible and carry a lifetime guarantee.
