Peak Design Shell Large Form-Fitting Reviews
Well made. Protective. But not well fitting for actual camera use.
The cover is well made, and the large does fit my Sony A7sIII with the G-master 70-200 lens. However, the camera is very hard to use while the cover is on. The cinch on the front is useful to make it stay put if you have a lens body that extends when you zoom (my sigma does this). The rear of the cover extends fully around the body. That's nice when the camera is not in use, but the back cover has to be pulled entirely up and over to view the EVF. You're basically exposing the whole body in the process.
Good protection for wet days
The case is very well made and surprisingly tight; even in a heavy thunderstorm it kept the camera and lens dry, while I was soaking wet despite the umbrella. It's a bit tricky to attach, especially pulling the anchors through, but the case is then securely attached to the camera. What I would like is a version with an opening for the viewfinder. Mirrorless cameras can be used very well via the display with the case attached, but this is a bit difficult with viewfinder cameras. Even though the trend is towards mirrorless cameras, I would be happy if Peak Design took up this suggestion. A little tip: if you mount a seamless focus ring on the zoom of the lens, you can still zoom quite precisely through the case.
