Gepe Card Safe Extreme Watertight Case - for Four Compact Flash (CF), Smart Media (SM), Memory Stick (MS), Multi Media (MMC) or Secure Digital Cards (Onyx Gray)
The Gepe Card Safe Extreme (Onyx Gray) is a watertight case made to store memory cards such as Compact Flash, Smart Media, Memory Stick, MMC or SD cards. Inside, the memory cards are protected against humidity and dust, as well as electrostatic charge. Four compartments offer space for several different memory cards, and grip each of them tightly.
The Card Safe Extreme uses insert material to protect the memory cards from being erased or damaged due to electrostatic effects. The card holder also has special viewing windows so you are able to see which space is taken by which card, even if the box is closed. This makes the organization of your cards easier. In addition, it is weatherproofed and it floats in water, and the design of the lock makes using the Card Safe a snap, even when wearing gloves.
The Card Safe Extreme has been tested and certified as European IPX-7, which means it is protected against immersion in water (immersion for 30 minutes at a depth of 1 meter).

This has to be the best way to securely store your memory cards. It seals very tight, holds CF cards snug in the rubber padding, and looks as if it were bomb proof. I now own two of these, and recommend them to anyone who asks. When it comes to protecting your memory cards, especially those that are full, there is no substitute as far as I am concerned. Easily worth the [$].My only trouble with them, they tend to make airport security folks a little nervous, they display funny on x-ray scanners at airports and security screening points.

It seems sturdy but it is so difficult to remove a compact flash card once you place it in a slot that I won't be using this. I need a tool to wedge under the edge of a CFC in order to remove it. Good idea but impractical in real use.

This product is amazing! It will handle a lot o damage and keep your cards as safe as they could be! The only con in this product is that it's not SD friendly. If you're using SD, it going to be a bulky case, since it will only store 4 SD cards. With a new design, it could easily hold at least 8 or even 16 SD cards...

Comments about Gepe Card Safe Extreme (Gray):
I wanted a high-quality case to protect my CF cards from shock, dirt and moisture. In a sense, your memory cards are the most valuable and irreplaceable pieces of photography equipment. This case is very strong and well-sealed. As other reviewers have noted, the cards fit very snugly and are difficult to remove. I am willing to live with this drawback to get the other benefits.

I obviously use this to carry around memory cards...more specifically I use both CF and SD and the nifty thing about the layout is that you can store 4 of each type in here at the same time! Haven't dropped it in water or anything yet...but given the feel of it and the sealing, I have no concerns if I ever do.

Comments about Gepe Card Safe Extreme (Gray):
This is a pretty good memory card case. I use it for SD cards and CF cards. The CF cards fit perfectly but the SD cards are a little harder fit than the CF cards which is the biggest negative about the case for me. I bought the case because I usually shoot with SD and CF cards at the same time with my D800 and I didn't want to carry 2 different memory card cases. Overall it's a pretty good case for memory cards.

Comments about Gepe Card Safe Extreme (Gray):
Although this is an extremely sturdy piece of equipment I am giving it a lower rating because I cannot use it to store my CF cards. I am able to push them in securely but removing them requires quite an effort and I am actually afraid that I might damage the cards. I did insert my SD cards and found it to be a great fit for those. If you are using a smaller memory card then these are great but I would hesitate to recommend it for anyone using compact flash cards.

Comments about Gepe Card Safe Extreme (Gray):
I can not seem to find a way to fault this. If you have it kept in your pocket, you may have a bit of an issue with the bulkiness. I keep it in my camera bag, and in the short time I have had it, I am yet to find a reason to dislike it. Some white dots and stretch marks have come and gone, but I do not know why. It may have something to do with travelling with it on an aeroplane, but they appear to scratch off. Simply, an excellent product.
