LOL Given what you are keeping in the case I would have though "Significant Force" would have been right up your street

Well yeah, but when your significant force is in a case that requires said significant force to open, well... you're just at a loss. =)

an older pic, but this is when i had a bunch of other gear laying around. (Pelican 1514)

Can somone please post a picture @ eye level with the case to see how low items sit in cases or protrude out top... preferably something w/ grip or 1D series bodies... somewhere around the 1550, 1560, or 1600 cases.

I tried the 1524 and had to send it back because with the size of my 20D/gripped and 1Dmk2 I couldn't close the lid without force and don't want to put that much pressure on these bodies. Don't really think it would hurt them, but don't want to take that chance either.

I'm looking at the 1600 w/ an inside depth of 7-3/4" (thats 1' more than the 1524) so I think that will work, but would like to see what others look like for comparison.

Thanks!

oh yeah.... Merry Christmas or whatever to all ! (bah humbug)

no pics, but the 1514 fits a 40d gripped no problem, so im sure it'll fit a 1 series just fine also

Cool, well that's a start... Thank's

I know the 1514 is approx 7-1/2" deep, so if the 1600 is 7-3/4", I should be ok with the Cotton Carrier button attatched or a L-bracket on...

I'm so happy to be able to join this group soon, I got a 1514 on the way!

Pelican 1650 w/1654 Dividers and lid organizer

I've got both a gripped 50D and a gripped T1i plus a lid organizer in my 1600 case. Works just fine in terms of clearance.

Ah, somebody with a 1600...

Thanks for the reply ! I'll have it coming my way soon then !

That case looks a lot bigger in this photo than the 1st.

I might suggest to get the padded option and the lid organizer. Makes configuring the case so much more dynamic.

The lid organizer is great for smaller accessories since you can see thru the net material that they use.

I am deffinately getting the "padded dividers", but will hold off on the lid organizer as this case will be large enough to hold all my gear + room for expansion... Mainly I'm wanting a case that is deep enough that my bodies can stand up w/ the Cotton Carrier buttons on the bottom, (and i have an L-bracket in the mail for my 20D/gripped), but large enough to have room for expansion. I figure its better to have the space and not need it, than it is to need the space and not have it....

besides, seeing those voided spots will just force me to fill them with a 3rd body and/or more lens's

My 1510. Haven't cut out for batteries/cf cards/ filters yet.

I originally did this layout & the photos to help someone stationed in Iraq who was looking at different options a long way from a store. Pelican 1450 with the divider set.

CICOPO-

Thanks for the eye level pics, I think that will really help in the decision making for some in terms of clearance.... especially with your 5D2 being NON-gripped. I'll have a lot of unused space in my 1600, but everything will deffinately have the clearance it needs!
