Review Summary

Indispensable item in my photo kit. It holds two bodies, three lenses and all the accessories. It would probably fit more but I travel light since I do 90% headshots. I've had this for years and it has never once given me a bit of trouble. A+++

The case itself is great and easy to travel with. The foam padding leaves a little to be desired if you want to pack a bunch of stuff into the case...the little sections are tedious to work with. For a little more room (but with plenty of padding) I took out the egg carton top and created a custom top foam insert from an old memory foam mattress and a pillow case that I sewed the padding into. I can snugly fit a Canon 5dmkiii body, Profoto D1 + cable, and 5 prime lenses (14-100mm) into the case.

Great Product, I'm glad I bought this when I did, Price has gone up about 100 Dollars. But that was 15 years ago, and they didn't have the yellow color dividers but then. I would still buy it today

Secure and fairly roomy. Used as a carry on and fit perfectly in the overhead storage area of the plane. Padded dividers are easily reorganized though the default setup accommodated all of my equipment.

Pelican has been my go to for decades and the quality is still not surpassed. It will take a beating and protect your gear. Also, the protector series is still made here in America which is a major plus for those who seek to support domestic businesses. (or in my case local businesses since their factory/headquarters is here in Southern California)

I?ve personally used Pelican cases similar to this on 5 continents. They?ve always done a wonderful job ensuring I get my gear safely from A-B. This was the home of my Xbox during a recent 7,000 road trip through nearly 30 states. It operated flawlessly for the trip and its contents were totally secured

Had over $10K worth of camera gear in this case survive undamaged after being submerged for 1 hour in an overturned whitewater raft. There was minor leakage but the foam kept it away from the gear. It also allowed easy access to my gear when the river wasn't so 'wild'.

The perfect air travel case; fit my Red, lenses, cables, batteries, etc. Makes a good seat when waiting at the airport too :) It's still in perfect condition after some heavy use! Wheels are great, and roll very well, and the pull out handle is actually robust! With the net/mesh top section added, it fits most of my kit.

Stand on it. Sit on it. Fill it with anything. Rugged beast. Love this thing. Super tight closure gives you a great sense of security and warm/cozy feeling that you are one of the cool ones with the pelican.
