Perfectly fits my D700 with multiple accessories. I filled the case with tissue paper and submerged it for few mintues to test and the interior stayed dry as advertised. The only thing I regret was not thinking before I started plucking out the foam. Initially I traced around my gear with a marker and then plucked the foam. had I placed my equipment upside down and then traced, I could have flipped the foam over when finished to hide the marks. Minor detail, but it might help anyone who reads this review. Also be sure if you plan to store anything in the case long term its very important to have some form of dessiccant in the case.

I use my Pelican Case to hold and transport the underwater housing for my Panasonic Lumix camera. I feel as though the contents of the case are completely protected.

Comments about Pelican 1450 Case with Foam (Black):
No surprise that this is a well-built all around solid case. Easy to pull out the foam to custom fit my camera and lenses. The latches are very tight, could be a problem for people with arthritis. I like them, makes it feel solidly closed.
I plan on using this as a carryon on a couple of upcoming trips, and in the boat while fishing.

Great case by a proven brand. This case fit my 7' Marshall Monitor perfectly. Also enough room to fit a few batteries and power cord. The pluck n pull foam insert is easy to use and modify to fit whatever equipment you will be carrying in the case.

Comments about Pelican 1450 Case with Foam (Black):
Perfect case for something with lots of attachments that need to be kept organized in an easily accessible manner. There should be a picture of it in the dictionary next to the words built-like-a-tank. The case closes securely and water would have a hard time finding its way in--if at all. There are no drawbacks to it.

Comments about Pelican 1450 Case with Foam (Black):
I am shipping my Nikon 300 2.8 lens overseas and needed a heavy duty case that can withstand the impact.
Although I have only just received the case, I am confident this will do the job perfectly. Its heavy duty and looks like its up for the job.
The pluck and pick foam was a pleasure to use and my lens fits snug and comfy in the case.
I am sure there is even room for a camera too if I decide to pluck more foam later.
I ordered the pelican silica gel too which will help with humidity during travelling.
Very happy with my purchase, looks like I have a case that will last a very long time.

The PROS: I purchased this case to protect a Nikon D7000 camera and lenses. Its very adaptable to your specific needs by simply removing the foam inserts. I kept the removed pieces, just in case I ever purchase a new camera or lense and need to reconfigure my space.
B&H had the lowest price and the service was surprisingly on time and on budget. Most of the time the lowest price means you may have to wait but B&H delivered as promised!

I mounted this case on the top rack of my motorcycle (on the back). It's the perfect size, it's super durable and waterproof, and the "lockability" of the case is perfect for the application.
I have nothing negative to report about this case. Price point was good, shipping was fast.

I need a case that was...
1.) Big enough to hold my camera body and two lenses. (5dmkii)
2.) Small enough so it was easy to carry around.
3.) Protect my camera from pretty much anything.
This case meets all three requirements :D
