Testimonials
I had a specific question about compatibility with my lens so I emailed NatureScapes on Sunday morning, not expecting to hear back until at least Monday. I received a very detailed reply from an obviously knowledgeable person - in LESS THAN TEN MINUTES! Not only did he answer my question - he pointed out to me that there was a less expensive option if I purchased two items together PLUS he alerted me to a $15 off sale that I would have not otherwise known about. In my 73 years I have NEVER had this kind of service - I will be coming back to NatureScapes in the future for all my gear needs! Highly recommended!!!

Today, when I ordered the soon to be back in stock Guru backpack, I was surprised with the complimentary guarantee which accompanied the order. One reason I have enjoyed ordering from NatureScapes has been its constant attention to and care for its readers. It has long been a trusted, reliable source for me, in thanks for which I will long be a reader and a proponent of this website. Thank you. Charlie H.

The Apex Mini beanbag incorporates the most versatile and functional design to date and addresses the mobile support needs of the photographer like no other on the market. After the original Apex penetrated the market, the creators at Essential Photo Gear listened to what customers were saying. One of the main suggestions was to create a bean bag with all the same great features as the original but in a smaller package. It is now reality! The Apex Mini is perfect for lenses smaller than 500mm, but still offers the same strength and durability of the larger version. They also created a smaller custom aircraft-grade aluminum plate to fit the Apex Mini. Each aluminum plate is hand-made with the assistance of a 100,000 pound press right here in the United States.

  • Dimensions: 8" x 8" x 5" (Height x length x width measured in inches when bean bag is filled)
  • Weighs in at 5.5 pounds compared to the larger size at 12 pounds when completely filled.*
  • The Apex Mini Beanbag was designed and manufactured in the United States.
  • Available in Black, APG, and Max4.

The unique design provides a stable platform for attaching your ballhead or gimbal head, allowing you to track, pan, auto-focus, without the problems typically associated with bean bag use.*Each Apex Mini is provided with an aluminum plate that can be inserted into the top pocket of the bag for a tripod head. The aluminum plate can be removed when desired to use as a regular soft shell bean bag.* Moreover, this versatile design negates the need to purchase a bulky and heavy to transport aluminum window mount.

  • The large flat top provides a highly stable surface for lens support on its own, while also allowing the bag to be easily inverted for use on a car hood or the ground.
  • The U shaped portion is covered in a high-tack material to insure the bag stays where it is positioned. The U shape also provides outstanding stabilization of equipment when the bag is inverted for hood or ground use.
  • The versatile strap design allows the bean bag to be securely fastened to a vehicle door handle, rail, beam, etc as well as offering an easy means of carry.
  • The fill zipper is covered with a weather resistant flap, logically positioned in an easy to fill location.

I have used this beanbag several times already. It works well hanging over my car door as I photograph snow geese, ducks, and the like. It seems well designed and built. I use it with a gimbal and the two go well together.

Advantages: Compact enough, and handy for gimbal use.

Disadvantages: None so far
