Neewer SB-BL-5 Sandbag Beanbag Saddlebag with Side Strap (Excluding Sand)
Product Description
The Neewer Sandbag Beanbag Saddlebag with Strap is a smart and sturdy solution for stabilising your gear in tricky outdoor conditions. Designed to cradle your camera or lens like a saddle, it conforms easily to uneven surfaces such as tree branches, rocks, or car windows. Whether you’re shooting wildlife through a long lens or capturing stable video from a remote location, this sandbag gives you the confidence of a steady shot without needing a bulky tripod.
Ideal for photographers, videographers, and outdoor explorers, it’s especially handy for those shooting in the wild or on rugged terrain. It also doubles as a weight bag for light stands, tripods, and boom arms - making it a must-have for both field and studio setups.
Camera shake, shifting gear, and unstable supports can ruin what would’ve been a perfect shot. Traditional tripods aren’t always practical - especially in cars or on uneven ground. You need something that adapts to the environment while still providing reliable support.
This sandbag solves that issue with its soft-yet-structured design, tough polyester construction, and high load capacity. Simply fill it with your choice of sand, rice, or pellets, and you’ve got an instant stabiliser. Use the included strap to secure it in windy conditions or wrap it around your stand as a counterweight. It’s foldable, easy to carry with the top handle or detachable shoulder strap, and packs flat when empty - perfect for travel and on-the-go shoots.

Common Dos and Don'ts
✓ Fill with sand, rice, or beads for a customised stabilising weight

✓ Empty it after use to keep it compact and travel-friendly
✗ Don’t use with sharp gravel or wet material that may damage the interior lining
