Palican Case for a Canon 5D mark iii

Antonrides — Wed, 24 Sep 2014 20:28:34 GMT

Was wondering if anyone has a recommendation for a Palican Hark case for a canon 5D Mark iii. I want to also keep a 70-200mm L series f/4 and a 17-40 mm L series lens with it. Thanks

Here's what I was able to fit in a 1450. (read the captions for some helpful info)

And although it might work for 1 or the other lens but not both this is what I was able to squeeze into a 1200

Also you can check out Condition 1. They make really good case for a lot less than Pelican.
This one is a little more space than Pelican 1450: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/888735-REG/ROYAL_CASE_100801_C1_Watertight_Carrying_Case.html for $20 less.

There are several very good brands of Pelican like cases but one thing I like about Pelican brand is that they have a few sizes available that can be ordered with padded dividers like camera bags use. Pluck foam is a nice thing but once plucked it's not very easy to re configure. I ordered my 1450 with the dividers seen in the photos. I also have the 1550 set too.

e Photos you put for the 1450 and the 1200 was the same. But that 1450 looks like it would be perfect! I thing I could even get my 100-400mm in there

Thanks Alot

I must have made a boo boo on the second link "copy & paste" but it's fixed now for those still looking.

Thats. You were a big help and I think I'm going to go with 1450.
