HI All,
Sorry this maybe is not the first time post on this very topic, If it is not you can direct me to the older one.
I am thinking of buying two bags for my Gitzo tripods.
1- Gitzo 1541T with a Markins Q3 ball head on it.
2- Gitzo 3541LS with a Arca Swiss Z1 with RRS quick release attached.
For both of them I need Padded but not too big and not too heavy bags.
I have checked Gitzo GC1201T for traveler but, some people say it is too small to fit the pod with the ball head attached on it. ( I normally use the dust bag which came with the pod and leave the thinner legs of the pod about an inch extended to protect the head.
For Systematic one I have learnt that Hakuba 100 (medium) is the best. I cannot buy this one anywhere except BH, Adorama and and Amazon. They are great places to shop of course I have shopped some stuff from BH and Amazon. But for this bag which is only $30 I have to pay $60 of shipment to Australia. I didn't mind it when I bough my tripods or the heads but paying 2 times of the price for shipment is a bit concern to me.
Now I need your advise on these two matters:
1- Has anyone here using GC1201T with 1541T and Markins Q3? How do they fit in?
2- Do you have any suggestion on other bags for 3541LS with AS Z1 attached on it.
I like them not too big since I chose these tripods for sizes as well as other qualities.
I really appreciate your inputs.

Hi Mohammad. I recently purchased a 3541xls and the gitzo gc-3100 padded bag. It is an extremely well made bag and comfortable to carry. I got mine through vanbar imaging in Sydney =
