Type of review

Does exactly what is advertised, stores all my Olympus M4/3 gear in a very safe to put on and comfortable to set up the case (I have dividers, no foam insert) Seems very stiff although it is marked 'air' and should be relatively light feels professional I would put this on definitely recommend.

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • Everything is fine

Peace of mind for your gear

I bought this bag to keep my camera and lenses safe, dry and dust free. I ride ATV a lot and take pictures of nature. After a long dusty road. The case was absolutely clean of dust and dirt. There is also no condensation inside the case. It costs money instead of buying new camera equipment. Plus, the foam inside keeps everything in place, preventing other hardware from getting scratched or worn down.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Empty

When a "camera bag " doesn't help.

I bought this bag to hold a Canon EOS 6D camera, a 70-150mm lens and the many attachments, plug-ins, filters etc that make up my astrophotography kit. The case itself is awesome and the styrofoam is a quick way to create a custom space, although I might prefer to order a custom styrofoam cutout later. He did his job, kept it all to himself and enjoyed the overland journey in pursuit of the eclipse, so mission accomplished!

Poor performance and durability

Excellent solid construction. Not satisfied with the broken inner seal. Came compressed, almost melted in appearance. It does not let air through, does not let water and smell through. I won't buy it again for the value for money. I expected better. I do not recommend. Update: One of the pawls is now broken. The plastic is torn in several places. This box is on my shelf at home. He didn't even leave my house. Never a rough treatment. It opens once on Friday and closes once on Friday. In my…

Pros
  • Dope
Cons
  • Slightly torn

great protection great shipping feather light

I love the case, light weight and durable, I've only FedExed computers in it across the US and it always arrives intact and intact. Perfect size for 2 Intel NUCs, small switch, access point and cables. I only gave 4/5 stars because I'm not entirely happy with the torn foam inside the case. Being able to customize the foam to fit my gear is great, but it's also surprisingly easy to ruin where you need to replace it. I would prefer the best long term option that I see in other cases. I know that…

Pros
  • Perfect for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Something different
