Eylar Standard 16" Gear, Equipment, Hard Camera Case Waterproof with Foam TSA Standards

Well, built, solid and keeps my cameras safe from damage.

If you are new to foam plucking, DON'T.... At 30 bucks a pop for a new foam set, the pictures show a good way to carefully remove the foam in total blocks so as to be able to modify any pluckouts to fit new or modified gear. 1. Lay out all the equipment on the foam and do not crowd, leaving a 2 foam block around the perimeter. 2. Mark the outline of the item on the foam corner to be removed, removing one additional block if too tight of fit. 3. Using a small straight edge ruler, gently push down on the perimeter of the foam blocks to loosen. 4. Gently pry out the whole block of foam - AND SAVE.... I was deciding between this 16 inch case and the smaller 13 inch case and as you can see in the final layout, the available space is filled fairly quickly. With three lenses, a couple of filters, three Barlows, a flip mirror,a star diagonal, and an ASI224MC camera and USB3 cable, there is a bit of additional space remaining for a few more items. The quality, fit and finish rivals the Pelican case but for a lot less cash with which to spend on more gear. I can't speak on the "water-tightness", but, the perimeter seal is very good with secure latching that is not that difficult to open. Overall, I'm glad I bought this 16 inch case and happy with the quality....

These cases are as sturdy as Pelican cases but at a much more reasonable cost. The latches, handle and hinge are heavy duty too. I use them with custom laser cut foam inside for telescope optics and camera lenses. I plan to buy a few of the smaller sizes to hold other telescope accessories. You will appreciate the quality and sturdiness of these cases. They should last for many years!

This is getting a five star review not because it’s perfect, but because it’s better than it should be at this price. I’ve bought many higher dollar cases before but didn’t really need that level of quality for this purpose, so I cheaped out. I’m glad I did! It will sever me perfectly well and I saved some money.

The inside foam is customizable and will allow strangely shaped items to be fully protected. The case is very sturdy and the plastic is thick and durable. I bought my first one to hold all of my telescope parts and when I bought more parts, I bought a second case to hold them. Well worth the money!

I have never had a bad experience with this case, therefore it's great, and I will always suggest it to others. If: this time when I ordered an eyelar case, it arrived without plucking foam but with everything else, it would receive a five star rating but the pluck foam is a issue. I got in touch with them through Amazon and email. We exchanged emails back and forth, and after approximately six of these exchanges, they promised to ship it to me for free. It hasn't arrived since last year (2023), so I replaced myself with a third-party purchase. Apart from receiving kind assistance and being misled by them. Excellent case; I'll buy it again. If they ever mail it without any foam or if I ever receive one without any foam I'm just returning it immediately through Amazon I suggest you do the same. PS out of all the cases I got from them this is my only complaint.

It doesn't lock on its own but you can attach a lock to it fairly easy. I use it for telescope eyepieces and lenses and it protects them from damage great. Have never gotten it wet but definitely seems to seal. The one problem is - IT IS SO DIFFICULT TO OPEN! Opening it with your bare hands takes both hands, a lot of elbow grease, and a lot of pain. I personally have to use the claw of a hammer to leverage open the latches, and even that doesn't work sometimes.

This perfectly fits the "personal item" regulations for most airlines, so you can carry it on *with* your carry-on. You will be giving up the entire space under the seat in front of you, though -- this fills it completely.

Me encanta la caja para protejer la camara en viajes largos o viajes donde hay mucha maleta que pueden golpear las camaras
