Filled with heavy-duty polyethylene beads (~6 lbs) or lighter buckwheat hulls, it offers superior stability and versatility in flat, saddlebag, or ballast modes. Constructed from durable 400/420-denier Ripstop Nylon with a rubberized base for grip, it’s built for professional outdoor use and international travel. With reinforced stitching, zippered refill compartment, and adjustable carrying straps, it’s the go-to portable support for photographers and shooters seeking quick, reliable setup without the bulk of a tripod. ## Description The SafariSack has been in production for over ten years. It has been duplicated by others, but as they say, “copying is the best form of flattery.” We offer you a choice of fill. Poly beads are the most stable, but heavier than the buckwheat hulls. For lenses up to 200mm, the buckwheat is adequate. The 4.2 features a side gusset, allowing a thicker volume of filler when in half saddlebag style. The ends are slightly rounded for easier handling. D-rings on the ends for carrying over the shoulder with a shoulder strap (# Y215 is adjustable, unpadded & 1" / 25 mm wide). With the sewn-in strap, it can be securely fastened to the rack on the top of an Land*over which is common on safari...or your own mini-van or SUV! If you want a longer strap, get the # Y208. You can add water, sand or pebbles to use as a ballast to stabilize a tripod or light stand in the wind. We recommend the use of an optional liner for sand (R107) or choose the R425 SafariSack II for a simpler, less expensive ballast bag.

Particularly like the rubber-like bands at the top and bottom on the back providing gripping power on window glass Very much like the material resistant to moisture, the covered zipper enclosure for refilling and the straps, although it would be really good if the side straps were longer to wear like a knapsack.. Also like the color- neutral enough so that it doesn't scare away wildlife or birds. Pricey but well made. Review: Not too heavy, works well. - The use of buckwheat really helps in the weight category. My only wish is that the two sides could be separated, either by a velcro strip or zipper. There are instances where only one of the two is sufficient. ## Features - DESIGN—This rugged bean bag is for supporting a DSLR, mirrorless camera, rifle or video camera on a vehicle, car window, chair, table, tree limb, fence post or on the ground. It is quicker to use than a tripod. The bag has a zippered compartment. Filler, such as polyethylene beads, buckwheat hulls, rice, beans etc. is then added. **Poly filled SafariSacks are HEAVY** The 4.2 poly fill weighs almost 6 lbs and the 1.4 weighs 2 lbs. Order the Buckwheat for a lighter bag. - MODES OF USE—It can used in three modes: 1) flat, providing a large “lower to the ground” shooting surface; 2) saddlebag mode, with the side straps cinched, elevating your camera. Drape it over the edge of a partially raised car window or place it on the ground to shoot flowers or insects; or 3) ballast mode—hang it on a tripod or light stand to stabilize in the wind or when using super-telephoto lenses. It is also for supporting a rife at the range. - BUILD QUALITY—It is constructed of a combination of durable 400-denier and 420-denier Ripstop Nylon fabrics. We don’t use cheap polyester fabrics like many imports!). Additionally, the bottom has a rubberized-type fabric that keeps the sack in place when placed on a vehicle or other slick surface. It is double stitched throughout and reinforced at the webbing junction points. - INTERNATIONAL TRAVEL—When traveling abroad take the empty version and fill it locally with rice, beans or bird seed. Then, upon completion of the shoot, dump the contents, returning home with an empty, compact bag. - Designed & Crafted in the USA (from some parts that are imported) ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01MV790XI | | Best Sellers Rank | #6,726 in Camera Cases | | Customer Reviews | 4.0 4.0 out of 5 stars (68) | | Date First Available | February 8, 2017 | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Weight | 5 ounces | | Item model number | LYSB01MV790XI-ELECTRNCS | | Manufacturer | Kinesis Photo Gear | | Product Dimensions | 20.5 x 10.1 x 0.25 inches | ## Images ![Kinesis SafariSack 4.2 (Khaki/Poly Bead Filled) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71E-geMLPsL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Product! *by J***A on November 8, 2017* Great product.

My only wish is that the two sides could be separated, either by a velcro strip or zipper. There are instances where only one of the two is sufficient. ### ⭐ Open seam *by J***N on July 21, 2024* Bag arrived with an open seam. Appears to have not been sewn for about 1cm which allowed the beads to leak out all over. Getting a replacement. Hope that one is better. ## Frequently Bought Together - Kinesis SafariSack 4.2 (Khaki/Poly Bead Filled) - SanDisk 128GB Extreme PRO SDXC UHS-I Memory Card - C10, U3, V30, 4K UHD, SD Card - SDSDXXD-128G-GN4IN - Peak Design Slide Lite Camera Strap, Sage, Configurable as a Sling, Neck or Shoulder Strap, Quick Release and Connection, Smooth and Grippy Side, Camera Straps for Photographers, 200 lb Capacity --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/44033364-kinesis-safarisack-4-2-khaki-poly-bead-filled](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/44033364-kinesis-safarisack-4-2-khaki-poly-bead-filled) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-06-07*
