Pelican 1510 Carry-On Reviews

Solid

Typical Pelican Quality, utilitarian, no frills... the ONLY thing I don't like is that on the INSIDE of the case, the wheel wells limit what you can put in that section, NOT a big deal, but it would be nice if there was a smarter way to make this case without sacrificing that tiny bit of space inside.

Big enough for two Nikon Z9s with long lenses attached

By Laura

I was looking for a case big enough to carry two Nikon Z9's with long lenses attached. I have a 70-200mm attached to one camera and a 180-600mm attached to the other, and this case fits the bill. There isn't a lot of space between the two cameras (they fit pretty tight), but there are a couple of opposite corners left over for extra batteries and other small pieces of gear. No review of the Pelican case is necessary -- it's everything you expect and a lot more. My main concern was the space available and I hope this is helpful for someone else!

Does the 1510 offer the same protection as CHECKED LUGGAGE as other pelican cases? If foam/ insert added? Using for canon 5d, sigma 300-500 lens, and 80 mm lens. Have back issues and can no longer carry gear. Other reccs welcome. Thx.
Asked by: christina
Just add the Pick and Pluck Foam to the case and you can customize any way you like. Best protection and pretty much the world standard for photography equipment. Buy it here; https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/330234-REG/Pelican_1510_400_000_1511_Four_Piece_Foam.html
