Pelican 1400 Camera Case With Foam (Orange)

As you would expect from Pelican, this case is absolutely perfect. It fits our Fujifilm camera and two lenses... as well as a spare battery, the flash, and 2 lens hoods. We put the smaller lens hood inside the larger, with the battery and flash in the center surrounded by foam so they wouldn't move inside the hoods. Couldn't have asked for a more perfect travel case. We'll use a sling case day-to-day, but for our travel portions we wanted the best protection, and this is built to protect and last. Love the orange color because it stands out, and we could never accidentally forget this. We also purchased a Nanuk shoulder strap and what an awesome addition when we need to be hands free going through airports. We had considered trying the Nanuk case, but the 910 was 1" less deep than this Pelican, and the 915 was a little larger than we wanted. This is perfect.

I used this case to take my D5100, 70-300 f/4.5-5.6, 18-55 kit, gopro hero 3 black, plus chargers, cleaning supplies etc to Chile for a month long kayaking expedition. We started in Santiago and spent a few days at meetings and learning the city. In Santiago, the subway doors are a little different than here in the USA. Being that the subway was totally packed, and I wasn't paying attention, I had to squeeze in. The doors shut right as I got my body through, but my pelican wan't so lucky. The doors slammed so hard on the case that I was stuck. (the case was in side a backpack that was only on one shoulder, so when it slammed shut, it was pushing on the top and bottom of the case.) Some subway people had to come pry the doors apart to dislodge my case, and myself. I think that the doors might have broken my arm, if I got it stuck, instead of the case. I thought that my gear was probably going be unhappy, or at least moved around inside. (I have pick and pluck, but the way i packed it, it was overflowing a little.) But to my surprise, Everything, including the case was totally fine! It then traveled with me in overhead compartments, under my feet on the floor of busses, etc. for about 8,000 miles while we made our way down South. The put in for the River Baker (the river that we paddled) is in a little town called Cochrane. That is where we got off the busses and cars, and on to the river. The case survived days in-between my legs while kayaking, and some days on the raft. The case is a little big for a creek boat. and you could see it's side poking up from under my skirt. Paddling with it inbetween my legs got very uncomfortable, so I ended up leaving it on the raft and just keeping my gopro with me for a lot of the trip. I would not recommend this case for long days paddling in a creek boat or smaller. One of the other issued I had was balancing the case on my knees and the side of the boat to pull kit out. And doing that was really sketchy on flat sections! So for this specific purpose the case didn't do great. But as a indestructible camera case, it rocks! 20,000 miles in total traveled and 100+ of those on the river, and all of my gear is in excellent shape. The other thing to think about is if this is going to be your primary camera storage, I would recommend sizing up! Now that I have a gripped body and more lenses, I can only fit about half of my kit in it.. Still a great case but a little too small for anything other than on cam and two lenses, maybe 3 depending on size. Last note. I oriented my 18-55 vertically in the case, and it just barely fit. I would not recommend doing this as it packs down the foam too much to be protective.

Excelente, justo lo que necesitaba, deben tener en cuenta que las medidas interiores no contemplan los márgenes dentro de la espuma por lo cual se reduce el tamaño en el interior hasta 1cm por lado. En mi caso tuve que recortar incluso la espuma de respaldo (que es aparte de la cuadriculada), pero todo ajustó bien. Excelente producto.

Es un excelente producto. De uso rudo y a prueba de agua. La marca Pelican Case es garantía de calidad.

Pelican case. Is it necesary to write something about it? Worldwide benchmark for safe cases doesn't need more wow's, just get one you need and it will never ever fail you. Wort every dollar spent.
