It is well made and very easy to custom fit to accessories. I did learn that it is better to leave all the foam in Place when fitting it to most accessories. Once you have seperated it, just push the item into it and let the foam compress under the item. Thos works very well. I plan to buy another one when I out grow the one I have. I recommend this case. |  | Reviewed on 2008-04-17      Good Deal Just Recieved in the Mail today and was surprised at how good the quality is for the price. Awesome Deal, I will probably be Back for a second one soon. |  | Reviewed on 2008-01-12      Great Case / Great Value!! I have purchase 2 of these cases within the last 2 months. I was extremely pleased with the quality of the case. I am using the first case for my Nikon D50 digital camera with 5 lens (ranging from 18-55mm, 20-70mm, 50mm and 2 zoom lens (55-200mm) and (300mm). I also had room for my external flash and media cards. I must say it is a pretty sturdy case and much better protection with the customizable foam within than my old camera bags of the past. The second case I recently ordered for my Dell inspiron 1705 laptop. Again with a little customizing a perfect fit, and very pleased with the end result. I received both cases within 2-3 days from order. Amazon has delivered with a quality product and excellent shipping, which was free shipping.
Very pleased with purchase.
|  | Reviewed on 2007-12-24      Good Size It's so hard to tell the size of the Vanguard cases here on amazon. This case is a good size. It's roughly the height and width of an average briefcase and about twice the depth. I was able to fit a Sony HVC-A1U with the microphone attached, a Nikon D80 and a separate 70-300mm lens. I still have enough room for a few cables and both chargers and a couple spare batteries.
As far as quality, you can't beat the construction at this price. It's such a good deal I'm buying more for my relatives. |  | Reviewed on 2007-07-25      bigger than i expected i got this bad boy for my growing collection of camera gear, but you could fit a camcorder in there too, or a bunch of random electronic gear. i had previously ordered another vanguard case from amazon, which is great too but a wee bit small, and though this one was either less expensive or around the same price, it appears to be the next size up from my other case. not sure how that works, but it's definitely worth the money. i can easily fit six lenses w/ reversed hoods, a dslr body, and a flash. the battery grip needs to be disengaged to fit too, but not such a big deal because if i'm gonna put my camera in the vanguard and not the lowepro slingshot (where it's ready at a moments notice), i probably wont need the battery grip for a while.
the case is more impressive in the larger size but not overwhelming in terms of bulk-- i'm sure there are bigger models. it's hard to tell from the pic on amazon, but this is a medium-to-large sized case. it looks like it was made with a combination of abs plastic with brushed aluminum appointments. the handle is made out of a grippy synthetic material. it has two clasp-locks and a keyed lock. the inside comes with both rubber dividers and pick and pluck foam. that's cool because you can use a combination of the two. the dividers can be reconfigured; with the foam you can dial in a snug fit for your gear. there's also a shoulder strap which you probably wont use much, since this is a stay at home case. well, you could take it as a carry-on, but its squarish and uncomfortable to carry by anything but the handle. it also has a one-year limited warranty. it should stand up to moderate abuse. 5 stars because there's no real flaws. it's not waterproof or sealed with an O-ring but, but that'd be asking for a lot at this price. it definitely has that "pro gear" look. you could definitely pay more for a lesser case. bottom line: solid, relatively inexpensive protection for your expensive goodies. |  |
