Comments about Pelican Todd Gustafson Photo Safari Rolling Camera/Computer Case:
This bag has very useful compartments for two camera bodies, 9 lenses including my 200mm lens. I even have space for an extra set of clothing in case my other luggage gets lost. The removable bag holds my DVD player, DVD's and a few other things too.

Comments about Pelican Todd Gustafson Photo Safari Rolling Camera/Computer Case:
I was checking out rolling camera cases for the past few weeks assessing the capabilities of each of the various offerings. I was looking for a case that would safely transport the largest number of lenses, camera bodies and accessories and meet FAA/TSA carryon requirements. I kept coming back to this Gustafson Photo Safari Rolling Camera Case by Pelican. My wife got a little tired of my indecision and purchased this case for me for my birthday. It was better than I expected and held much more gear than I thought possible as follows;
Main case: Nikon D3S body w/ L bracket, D300 body w/ L bracket; Nikon lenses as follows; 200-400 mm F4, 105 mm F2.8, 24-70 mm F2.8, 14-24 F2.8, 70-200 mm F2.8 w/ 1.7 teleconverter, 10.5 mm F2.8, 105 mm f2.8, 1.4 teleconverter. In the detachable computer case I was able to fit the following; 15" MacPro LapTop, 1 TB portable drive, D3S and D300 battery chargers, several GEPE Card Safes, several spare batteries for each camera, 3 filters, cables, etc. Very impressive and very heavy, but it carries the load well. The camera case exceeded my expectations and I will take it whenever I travel.

Comments about Pelican Todd Gustafson Photo Safari Rolling Camera/Computer Case:
i am a musician/photographer and travel with far too much equipment. this bag allows me to carry on [in the rolling case] both my delicate but heavy photo gear and, some of my smaller wind instruments plus my laptop [in the zip-on bag that attaches to the front]. once on the plane i can unzip them to put the rolling bag into the overhead compartment and the shoulder bag under my seat.
this case is made extremely well and handles the weight just fine; it looks like it will be very durable.

Comments about Pelican Todd Gustafson Photo Safari Rolling Camera/Computer Case:
Nice bag ,..Roller wheels are smooth, but the top handle popped a little when I picked it up with the bag full of equipment. I don't think the top handle will last many more times grabbing it from the top,..... I give it 6 months!!!
