This review is from: Pelican 1520 Watertight Hard Case with Foam Insert - Black

This is an excelent case, I love Pelican and I hold them near and dear to my heart. I trust that when my camera and lenses are in this case they will be safe. The pick and pluck foam is very good and easy to use. Don't get custom foam, it isn't worth it. Only use padded dividers if you have equipment that won't break if it falls inside the case.

Pros:
Lots of space for all of my equipment.
Pick and Pluck is great
Steel padlock protectors.
Auto pressure equalizers, I wouldn't have a clue how to use the manual.

Cons:
Gets kinda heavy when you lug it around the airport. (Thats why I am going to sell this one and get the 1510.)
Scuffs up fairly easy.
Is a magnet for dust and dirt.

P.S. If you have to travel a lot with your gear, get the PELICAN 1510 CARRY ON, it has wheels. The dimensions might be different, but it has the same amount of space.
