Pelican 1560 Camera Case - Foam Included (Desert Tan) - Enhanced SEO Review

Overall, the 1560 is regular Pelican quality. I use this bag to carry about 25 pounds of gear. The scroll function simplifies this task. I reduced my rating by one star because of the strength of the non-latching ends. When lifted by the end handle (located at the top), the lid opens and the contents are free to reveal any dirt or moisture that may be present. Lateral locks would have prevented this. It might seem finicky, but grabbing your suitcase by the top handle is a natural action after…

The Pelican has become the benchmark in business against which all others are compared, and with good reason. They're well built, waterproof, and the included foam allows you to customize the items inside. I feel like I can drop this case off the truck bed and the contents are easily protected. This particular case is a bit heavy so the included retractable handle and wheels make it easy to transport. They're a bit pricey, but if you want the best possible protection, these cases are worth it…

If you doubt yourself, don't. I've bought many cases from other manufacturers and they just don't do the job. Cases from other manufacturers tend to be noticeably weaker, harder to lock and have poor design flaws. After buying so many off-brand models, I finally switched to the Pelican. Model 1560 is one of my favorites. The size is perfect for the 1510+ and 1600 series. It still only has two latches on the front but is sealed as intended. I use all types of locks from TSA to FortLocks. The…

What I really like: The hinges are "staged", so the lid holds. That's a good thing, because then the hinges don't tighten like they sometimes do when the lid falls back. The case is much larger than I expected and might actually be too big for my use. I had a hard time finding anything big enough to have a handle and wheels. It is also very deep and consists of two separate layers, each several inches thick. They cut easily with a very sharp knife and retain most of their integrity even when…

This case has become the standard case for my busy dual video/photo studio. We started with the Pelican 1510, which proved to be too small for many of our applications. This slightly larger suitcase is a little more forgiving when it comes to packing everything without being too big to carry up long flights of stairs or other occasions where it is not possible to unfold the handle and use it as a wheel . As our studio has evolved (we've been in business for nine years) we're moving from a stock

Fantastic case! I also have a Pelican 1510 with soft baffles, but now that I'm making more and more videos I needed a bigger case. This case is the perfect size for me - big enough to fit all my gear but not so big that I can't carry it fully loaded! I have been using Pelikan cases for over 30 years and have never had a problem with them. As a photographer/videographer/filmmaker, I travel extensively and often to very remote locations and I know my Pelican cases will protect my gear and keep…

I bought this with the 1569 photo organizer cover. Why didn't I buy this case sooner? This is a fantastic way to store gear where you know it's safe. I'm not sure if I can get him to continue (he's not able) but it's not that far off. Also, all of my gear is very heavy, so I'm not sure if lugging it over my head is a good idea. Although I don't plan on flying it, maybe check the gates with TSA locks. Once received and put to use, no doubt use soft baffles if you intend to reuse it in the…
