I have just bought (I bought it in January and the 'scope just arrived today) a Skywatcher Startravel 120mm Refractor together with an AZ5 Mount & Portable Tripod as a Grab & Go Telescope. The problem is that I am really struggling to find a decent quality storage/transport bag or hard case that will fit it. Not to mention the AZ5 and the tripod! I mistakenly bought one of the Geoptik bags for what turned out to be the wrong mount but I'm making it work by putting the mount in its cardboard box together with the extension and the flexible slow mo controls in their boxes to fill out the case and that'll do for now. The telescope however is a chunky beast (to which I added a Finder scope, not fond of red dot sight) and I am desperate for bag or case that will fit it. I cannot leave the telescope set up so it has to be put away each time and good cases/storage bags will make the world of difference to taking the telescope to darker skies and keeping it safe at home. Do any of you own this telescope (and mount)? Have you found a good case that you can recommend? Please let me know!

Hi, I am looking for either a case or good quality padded bag to fit a Sky Watcher 150PL long tube reflector. I have seen the same advertised for the shorter 900/1000 tubes but this one is 1200mm and a little awkward to find. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Has anyone had any luck finding a decent case for the Canon IS 15x50? The case that comes with the binocular doesn't give much protection and has no shoulder strap. Edit: I've started looking at camera bags which seem to have similar dimensions to the Canon's (19.3/8.1/15.2cm) The Camlink CL-CB21 Shoulder bag looks like a possible fit at a decent price.
