terrible to open by hand [Posted on 2007-04-10] Wish their engineers could have thought to lengthen the the locking handles
so that opening the box wouldn't require so much effort and cause so much pain.
Great Case! [Posted on 2007-10-17] Pelican makes a great case. I have used them for years in my job. They are tough and reliable and work like you expect them to.
Built like a tank like all Pelican cases, a bit snug for a Nikon D60 [Posted on 2008-06-28] Like other Pelican cases I've owned this thing is built like a tank. The new latches are nice, it's still a very solid operation to latch and unlatch the lid, but a bit easier now. The pluck-apart foam is great, makes for a very clean looking cavity to place your equipment.
I got this case for my Nikon D60 based on a review of a 1200 in a different color that said it fit the D40 (which is the same size as the D60). It's a perfect fit in the horizontal directions, but I do wish it was a half inch taller, as the D60 pretty much compresses the foam all the way when closing the lid. Nikon lists the height of the D60 as 3.7" and Pelican lists the interior height of the 1200 as 4.12"
Of course that's not a defect with the case, I could have gone for the 1300 which is almost the same size in the horizontal directions but 2" taller. Or the 1400 which is 1.5 - 2.5" larger in the horizontal dimensions and 1" taller. But my mom has the 1300 for her Canon XTi and it seems quite bulky, so I think the 1200 was the right choice. Pelican's are rock solid so I don't worry about the case getting crushed and squishing the camera.
Excellent case for Scuba accessories [Posted on 2008-09-03] The Pelican case is ideal for scuba accessories. Waterproof and form fitting, we use it for our digital camera, a small point-and-shoot, and dive case, with room to spare for silica packs, spare o-ring, grease, and strap to hook the housing to my bcd.
