p.1 #4 · Can anyone recommend a decent tripod bag for Gitzo GT3541LS?
You bet, they come in different sizes...I just linked the one I have (holds ballhead mounted)
Mine's 3 years old, and aside from an occasional blast with an air compressor...it still looks and acts like new.

I have the GT3540LS and a Wimberley WH-200 head attached. It will fit in a RRS padded bag (I have two: one for this tripod and one for my wife's smaller GT3531S) but it is really (and I mean really) snug. You will have to check to see if your GT3541LS is any longer than the GT3540LS. If it is longer than I would pass on the RRS bag.

Kinesis gear tripod bags. add your own padding if you feel you need it. i've been using it with my RRS and Gitzo legsets for 3 years or so. travel all over the planet.
