Digital camera reviews of Pelican 1200 Case with Foam for Camera (Black)
Digital camera Review: A bit small for a pro camera kit
Summary: 4 Stars
If you are considering this case for a small DSLR, read to the end. First, the basics...
I've used Pelican cases like this in my videography work quite a bit and this one matches up to others I've seen. It's a tough case, water-tight but not resistant to heat according to the owner's guide. The latches are a bit stiff on these cases but I love that it comes with pre-punched foam so you can easily fit whatever odd-sized object in snugly. Be sure to read the tips that come with it about using chalk or toothpicks to spot out the shape you want to cut out.
I ordered this case to hold my Canon T2i (550D) DSLR camera. Sure, the camera fits fine without a lens on the body, laying down screen side. And you can fit at least two small lenses in next to it. But the case is a bit too tight for my taste with the T2i resting on its bottom, which I'd like to do so I can store it with a lens attached. It also is too small to fit both the camera and the reasonably small Rode Videomic I bought to go with it. It would definitely be out of the question for the larger Canon 7D and 5DmkII or the Nikon D90 and the larger pro lenses.
The bottom line is that I'm probably going to keep this one to carry other, smaller equipment. I shouldn't have any problem finding a use for it. But if I was Goldilocks, this would not be the case that is "just right".
Summary of Pelican 1200 Case with Foam for Camera (Black)
Pelican Protector Cases are made with Copolymer Polypropylene, using an open cell core and solid wall construction, which is stronger and lighter that the completion. You can tell its a Pelican case by the distinctive "twin-ribbed" top surface. Stainless steel pins are used for hinges and handles. The new Double-Throw latches are much easier to open.Digital Camera Accessories
