Couldn’t beat the price for this great case.

Great case

Great product

This is a seriously sturdy piece of kit. The padded divider kit doesn't really work for the way I want stow my gear (bodies with lens down), but I can't fault the case for that.

Trust your stuff to this case

I would buy this product again

I bought this case with no foam to customize it to use for fishing. I needed rugged case to carry 14 inch custom swimbait lures, reels and tackle. 1440 did the job just great with custom Plexiglas partition. Though I would appreciate ready made offers from Peli.

Die Hard

OK, if there is one thing I would change, it would be to make the top section a bit deeper so I can store my lenses upright instead of on their side.  I think that would make this case perfect by utilizing the space a tiny bit better, but either way it is a great case and we will call this 4.75 stars.  

In the lid I have all the little junk and do-dads.  In the top tray I have my 24-70 f2.8, 100mm f2.8 macro, 85 f1.8, 50 f1.8, 135 f2, 17-40 f4, STE2 (Canon IR controller)and a stofen omni-bounce.  It is snug but comfortable and all my lenses have hoods on them that I store inverted on the lens.  Below I have a 70-200 f4 (my old f2.8IS fit there just as well), 5d, 5dmkii, 2 sunpac video lights, 2 canon 580 speedlights, 2 external battery packs, 2 pocket wizzard flex tt5 units, 40 AA batteries, chargers, Sekonic 358 meter, more general junk and still have some room.  I would consider my rig to be very typical of an event shooter and it all fits in there nicely.  

The bottom I have split front to back and the back side I have split top to bottom so that my speedlights (in their cases) slide under my bodies.  The front section is the 70-200 standing upright on the right by the wheel cutout and the area next to that is a large open storage space for batts and whatnot.  The only things I use that don't fit into this case are my light stand, pod,  and a ThinkTank Wideload!  

The dimensions of the case are such that it fits in many places and doesn't take up a lot of space.  I have even had it strapped to the back of my motorcycle (crotch rocket NOT a touring bike!!!)  It is stable enough to stand on and is all but bomb proof.  Fully stuffed it may be a little too heavy for a woman or a slight person but for an average guy like me it is just fine and the padded handles and large-ish wheels help a lot.  Weight as I have described above is 43.5 lbs according to my bathroom scale.  

Most people would never guess it is camera gear because it is flat black and shaped more like a file cabinet type case.  That and its physical structure make this case more protective than any on the market IMHO.  I love this case and I highly recommend it!
