1450 Case No Foam (Black) | Watertight copolymer case with O-ring seal and purge valve for electronics, cameras and travel

Keeping this short, I don't have the time right now to type a great review. The Pelican cases are fantastic. Whatever you may need to store in one of theses cases, the cases will serve you well. They are sturdier than anything else you'll find on the market, and the plucking foam makes organizing the boxes very easy. I bought this case for my telescope accessories which include a spotter scope, eyepieces (one which is very large, around 6 pounds by itself), laser collimator and several other accessories. All you have to do is get an estimated size of your gear to decide which case will be adequate. Pelican stands behind their products and will do whatever it takes to keep you happy. The instructions/guide that came with the box were very short but cleverly precise. I give the product five stars for superior quality, dependable customer support and tons of versatility.

I got it for boating with my Nikon D7000. Comfortably holds the DSLR and a couple zooms , primes, Go Pro, and accessories. Compact enought to stow well - on board boat or in a plane overhead compartment. Good padding. Padded and secure fastening dividers. Looks like the case it seals well. Feels like it can survive a hurricane. If you're getting this for electronics in a wet environment, get some large dessicant silica gel pacs to remove any trapped moisture once you seal this baby up. As far as personal feedback, I need to use mine now... I have a Carolina Skiff, a rather wet boat in heavy weather - I have enough confidence in this product to take expensive camera gear in salt water environment! As for testimony, my buddy is an avid wildlife photographer and adventurer, who has used his Pelican to travel to Alaska - Pelican has proven track record in tough environments. Regarding this case - I wanted to comment primarily on the fit for the D7000 and equipment - When I purchased this, I could only find one review that described my similar gear load out. Hope this helps. Update 9/15/2013: Works great on the boat and traveling - seals well and takes a beating. To give a better idea on space, I can carry the D7000, Tokina 11-16 f/2.8, Nikkor 35 f/1.8, Nikkor 18-105, the Nikkor 55-300VR, and a SB700... with a little room to squeeze in a Go Pro if I needed. When I travel, I typically leave the 18-105 at home if I have the other 3.

I bought this case to mount on the back of my vehicle and needed it to be 1) durable and 2) waterproof as it is exposed to the elements 24/7. I've had it for a few months and so far it has exceeded my expectations. The case is well made and justifies the price.

***1ST REVIEW 08/04/2010 I bought this case for some musical equipment I planned on carrying around. I underestimated the size of this thing. IT'S HUGE!!! I won't particularly be carrying this around much. The amount and size of the equipment I planned to store in here is not really that big in size, but combined would not all fit in the Pelican 1500 width and length wise. Basically I needed a case with the width and length of this case, but not so much depth. That is what makes this thing a goliath. But I am not going to base this review of my tailored needs. This case is super solid, super sturdy, and tight. The clamps are a little tough to open, but that not a con when you're storing expensive equipment such as microphones, which I am. Also, the perforated foam is great for making this case 'yours', but it can be a little messy and hard to plan out. It took me about three hours to get mine all cut out to shape for my microphones and preamps. I don't think I would ever want to do that again. It's a shame the depth is being wasted in my case. I may possible use the bottom for another set of microphones in the future, but right now it is serving its purpose, and taking up a lot of space doing it. lol I recommend this case for the protection of your electronics, but if you plan on traveling a lot and don't need as much space, definitely go for the smaller ones. ****UPDATED! 08/09/2014 Ok...so as mentioned a couple years ago (4 years to be exact)....i was not fully utilizing the space of this case, and now have decided to downgrade to something smaller for my microphones instead. Hmmm....what else can I use this for then....??? I KNOW!!! My JBL LSR305 Studio monitors!!! DOHHH!!! They dont fit!!! But why!?!?!? In looking at pelican's website for the exact dimensions, it claims to be 7.99" in depth (height). The depth of the speakers are 7.28". So why is the not even remotely close to being able to close with these speakers sitting inside them? Well....it seems pelican is giving you the exact dimensions of the case itself. They are not accounting for their non perforated foam lid and base protection, which is odd, because these are not meant to be cut. They are meant to be in there and not taken out or altered. So why not account for this space deduction? I can imagine anyone that would want to store anything expensive in there without some sort of shock protection. I'm glad I found this out considering my circumstances as opposed to buying it based off the interior dimensions and then not having it fit and having to go though the headache of sending this behemoth back! Be warned when shopping for pelican cases! MAKE SURE you product has an ample amount more that the depth of your item you plan to store. I'd say at least 2 inches to account for their non perforated lid and base foam protector.

I bought this box several years ago and it's still holding strong. It's saved and protected my camera gear through lots of travel. If you have several thousand dollars worth of equipment then you should invest in a good case. Also, if you have any of the canon cameras that have the battery pack grip attached, this case is tall enough to fit the body and grip perfectly.
