> 24 hourGreat case. Very easy to cut foam into whatever shape you need. Handle locks when pushed down so it wont rattle around when transporting it. Handle is also pretty comfortable. Cant think of one con for this item.

> 24 hourExcellent case for the camera gear. I tend to work out of the car for my shots so I keep my lenses in the hard case until I do occasionally need to transfer to a backpack. Its much easier to work out of the case where everything is laid out for me. I really like the latch system, great design!

> 24 hourThis is a good little case that works perfectly for my purposes, securing my gear and keeping it safe. The latches are sturdy and dependable, it accepts padlocks and it got through its first airline flight as a checked bag without any problems. The only thing I dont love about this case is that the design makes it possible to pinch a finger between the handle and the top of the case when moving the handle up from the locked down flat position to pick up the case. Ive learned to grasp the handle squarely in the middle so that this doesnt happen, but a differently-shaped handle might be a good idea to eliminate these potential pinch points on either side. That small quibble aside, I do like this case and have found no other issues with it.

> 24 hourThis case exceeded our expectations when we received it. My husband was so surprised when it arrived. I was originally searching for some cheap, yet very flimsy cases to transport some expensive temperature monitors. This case holds everything in place and the padded dividers ane adjustable with velcro. The inside lid also keeps everything in place. The weight is a little heavy, but it does prove to be extremely sturdy because of the weight. We definitely are happy with our purchase.

> 24 hourWhat a great case this is. Sturdy, fairly light weight, extremely well made, and darn good looking too. I think these guys at Nanuk have a winner here. Forget the stainless steel cases! This is the one you want.

> 24 hourI ran out of room in my Pelican 1510 and I was looking for something to hold my manual focus lenses and other pieces of gear. Pelican cases are expensive and I was looking to do a little better cost wise. I found Nanuk, which I had never heard of before, via the internets. The Nanuk 925 case is similar to Pelican in features, with a few differences: The latches are of a better design, they will probably save your gear if they open somehow during a fall since they have an extra safety on them--even if latch pops, the case wont fall open. The handle folds into a locked position which is nice. Plastic seems softer but not sure if it is weaker. This case does NOT have the metal lock reinforcements like my Pelican. The padded dividers have less padding. The overall outline of the dividers is just as thick--sides and bottom--but the individual dividers are thinner. The divider system is much more customizable than the Pelicans due to the fact that the entire bottom has velcro and there are more/different sizes of dividers. However, the dividers, while better, are still not perfect. Two of the long ones only have velcro on one side and thus the case is not as customizable as it could be... I shoot Pentax and I was able to fit the following gear in the Nanuk 925: Pentax DA 14mm f 2.8 w/hood, Sigma 28mm f1.8 w/hood, Pentax A 28mm f2.8, Pentax FA 35mm f2 w/hood, Pentax FA 50 f1.4, Pentax F 35-70 f3.5-4.5, Pentax DA 18-55 f4-5.6 AL II w/hood, Tamron 28-105 f4-5.6 w/hood, Pentax A 70-210 f4, Metz AF-58 Flash w/case, Pentax 28mm lens hood w/case, Hoya 49mm ND8 filter w/case. That amount of gear filled the thing and I had two of the small dividers left over. I set it up as seen in the photos except I used the small dividers to sub divide the top right compartment into 3 sections for the 18-55 and 28-105 zooms and the 28mm lens hood and the bottom right section into one long portion for the 70-210 zoom and the hoya filter. The 925 is about the size of a regular, full-size briefcase in all dimensions. This means you have little depth for larger lenses. In other words, you will have to lay the longer glass on its side. In my configuration all of the short glass was stuck in vertically with the exception of the 70-210 zoom. The flash also was placed on its side. I do not believe you could put a DSLR with grip in this standing up, it would have to lay on its back and thus take up more room. A DSLR without a grip/battery pack (Pentax k100d, k20d) would fit standing up. To compare, the Pelican 1510 is much deeper and you can put some telephotos in it straight up--I have a Takumar 200mm f4 and a Pentax FA 100-300 f4.7 in that case and they fit straight up and down, my k20d DSLR also fits in there with grip straight up as well. Clearly, Nanuk is just as high quality as the Pelican, with some additional improvements. Their prices seem a bit more reasonable and they have sales--which I never find with Pelican. I like this case, but as always I wish I would have got a bigger one!
