Amazon Basics Medium Hard Camera Case - 18 x 14 x 6 inches, Black: Protective Storage for Cameras and Equipment Review

[Small body] Economical, durable, 1 inch lower than the Pelican 1200. Fits all the contents of my Nikon D5500 kit (camera, 18-55 lens, 70-300 lens, charger, 3 batteries) with room for the main lens! My wife tested it by accidentally dropping it onto concrete from waist height with the whole camera on it. Kit inside no mishaps. I have no regrets here, but I wouldn't recommend this bag to anyone with a large camera body like the D7200 unless you want to lay the body flat with no lens attached…

This item is built like a tank and is fully functional. It's profitable - buy it. ("Camera” hard case). If you don't want the "amazonbasics" logo simply remove it, it's only held in place with strong double sided tape. Corrugated foam top layer and flat foam bottom layer. The handle is rubberized for a comfortable grip. The cover is removable for ease of adjustment - etc. by unscrewing a hex from the steel pivot pins. (photo) The only point of criticism is the double-folding closures. They…

I wanted an Auber PID (external thermostat) cover for my smoker. I kept it outside, unprotected, in an open kitchen. I wanted to make sure it would be protected from the elements, moisture, dirt and dust. I thought about getting a Pelican case from Revain but the size just wasn't enough and the next size up was too expensive. When I received it I was surprised and very pleased at how easy it was to remove the pre-cut foam for a custom fit. If necessary, a second piece of foam is also included…

Four stars but... The case is a replica of the Pelican case, a well-folded plastic flight case for protection of your choice. However, there are some notable departures from the Pelican body. (1) First, and I think this is a big issue, the case is not upright. The case is designed to lie flat, but when placed vertically (with the handle up) it's slanted and not stable. The problem is that, unlike the Pelican, the hinges touch the ground, and the body sits on it unevenly. There is no additional…

Why build a case that doesn't stand up straight? It seems like a little forethought and a simple design fix before going into production. Such covers are in my opinion twice as expensive as they should be. But they are all overpriced. I think if manufacturers can sell them at such high prices, they will. This case from AmasonBasics is cheaper than many others, but its quality clearly doesn't compare to some of the others (Pelican, Condition 1, etc.). Not waterproof, but not a problem for my…

Great compact case. It has a sure feel of strength and durability. The overall appearance has nice smooth curves. Inside there are several slots for accessories. The rubberized grip feels comfortable. The clasps are strong yet easy to open and close. The metal rods used for latches and hinges are of good diameter. If you open the lid at a slight upward angle (lid to the floor), you can feel a certain resistance and a faint click. The lid sits slightly higher than vertical in a vertical…

Update 11/30/17. Downgraded to 3 stars because Royal PIA got a lock that fits the hull. The lock holes are located too close to the side wall of the bolt, making it difficult to install the lock body. The case itself is great, but since I need to close it quickly and easily for air travel, it has become tedious to use. This is a great hard shell travel case that I will use to carry my firearms when I travel. He's as strong as a pelican. I'm not sure why others have pointed out that this isn't…
