NANUKWheeled Series 935 Lightweight NK-7 Resin Waterproof Protective Case and Padded Divider - Black

Love these cases, solid and reliable, I have a few and prefer these over my pelican cases.

Awesome case very well built exceeded my expectation

A well made, versatile case. It is sturdy and very adaptable to whatever you wish to store in it. I have this one and one from another company. Each one holds a camera body and the lenses I use most frequently with that body. All of my camera gear is well protected and well organized and efficiently available

Great quality and manufacturing is just perfect!

I got one for expensive and sensitive test equipment. Already went on a couple trips with it. Train, walking blocks in NYC. Up and down sidewalks, curbs. I mean beat up. All is good. This is thing is so tough, padded, can customize endlessly (which i did). I have so many parts but got it all so organized my onsite work was a breeze. Note after walking like 20 blocks and a train trip the wheels are functioning like nothing ever happens. That's important. So yeah, Nanuk, does what it's supposed to do.

Due to extensive travel, especially abroad, I'd been looking for something to carry my professional camera gear in for some time. After looking at other options--Manfrotto, Pelican, Lowepro, ThinkTank, et al.--and reading the reviews for all of them, I chose the Nanuk 935 due to its reputation. I did consider its weight, as that is an issue: this case is not light. However, in terms of 'build,' the 935 is solid. Very solid. I'm not sure that I'd ship my gear in it when traveling--instead of carrying it on board with me--but that's more a statement on baggage handling than on the case itself. The weight is part of its build: I expect something of this nature to be somewhat heavy. In the end, price was *not* the primary factor as protecting over $7.5K in camera gear is the objective, not going cheap.I also tend to look at a product's "weak spots" when considering a purchase of this nature. In an item like this, that would be the hinges and the latch points. Nanuk has thought this one out and taken care of them, especially the "powerclaw" latches are well conceived and made. The hinges are also robust. The other items I consider are the retractable pull handle and wheels. Once again, they are well made. I have zero concerns about the reliability and durability of any of them. The only item lacking, given that this is designed for travel, are built-in TSA combination locks. However, for less than $10 one can purchase them separately and use the large, dual hasps to lock down the cases' items.The interior part of the case can be purchased with different configurations. I went with the cubed foam and have configured it in the way in which my gear fits best. In hindsight, I wish that I would have gone with the cubed foam with lid organizer, as it would give me valuable space to store other items--camera batteries, filters, etc.--that currently occupy valuable space. However, that is not a defect but a lack of vision on my part.Finally, the product's "look." Unlike some of its competitors, the Nanuk 935 *looks* like a carry-on, not a crate with wheels with expensive contents. This is important as I don't want to *look* like I'm carrying high-value contents in a carry-on. The aesthetic in this case makes it virtually look like a standard carry-on. I chose black to be as simple as possible, but those who feel the need to choose a bolder color can choose another of the six colors.In sum, I feel that my gear travels safe and sound in the Nanuk 935. It was the right choice for me.

Wow, what a case! I like the blue color that I ordered, it looks great. Heavy-duty clasps to keep it closed and secure. I loaded it up with fifty pounds of demo items, and they look good inside. Cannot wait to take it out and see what everyone else thinks!

First, I like Nanuks a lot better than I ever liked Pelican cases; Nanuk cases seem more finished, less unnecessary complicated design-wise, and less ugly. They are also cheaper, and I like to support Canada because their having economic stability means they are less likely to try to attack (you laugh, but in my hometown, we actually have a US-Canada peace monument).This is a tough, attractive, and smooth case. It's a nice touch that the lid has a detent to keep it open. If you've ever had a Pelican case lid rap you on the knuckles, well, ouch.That said, the 1535 is somewhat puzzling as a locking case - because if you break a small piece of plastic off each corner near the hinges, you can pull the hinge pins (using the built-in grip... on the pin). I'm sure there is some use case for this, like setting up arctic scientific bases in the frozen wastes of Windsor, Ontario (j/k!), but for most people, a straight pin with no "handle" would seem like a better idea. I guess you could solve this by snipping off the knurled handle.What I don't like a lot about plastic equipment cases is that the stock options are pretty sub-par. The Nanuk padded divider set has a very thin layer of padding on its "bottom" (what faces the outside of the case), and there is a finite number of sizes of rectangular objects that can be accommodated. This problem goes way beyond Nanuk and Pelican. On the 1535, you also lose the two corners with the wheels and little spot near the retracted handle.Since I am using this as a case for camera lenses, I would comment that the divider:- Is about ok for old-school SLR, mirrorless, or medium-format detachable lenses 5" long or shorter (unless you turn them sideways)- Is difficult for smaller lenses, like for rangefinder cameras, because the short dividers are still a bit longer than the diameter of an average RF lens- Is an ok but not great fit for camera bodiesThe alternative for plastic cases, cubed foam, like Communism, seems like a great idea until you try to implement it. The foam is by nature weakened so you can make your own openings, and this inevitably leads to its destruction. It also outgasses and absorbs oil. Many ways to win here! Perhaps the most irritating thing about it is that the replacement cost is insanely high, as if the open-celled polyurethane foam matrix contains large amounts of earth's most previous substance, to wit, inkjet ink. The reality is that the foam is probably insanely cheap to make, moderately expensive to ship due to its volume, and massively profitable.Trekpak seems to have solved this partially, but for any critical application, you will want to go to your local foam outlet and have a closed cell foam or neoprene block custom-cut for your stuffs.Perhaps someone could let us all know why Nanuk's lid organizers cost a huge percentage of the cost of the cases they go in? The best value proposition on the 1535 seems to be getting padded dividers when on sale; you can always do foam later, but the dividers are very expensive to buy separately.Anyway, I would recommend this if you are looking for a "carry on" factor case, but just be careful in considering how you will cushion the items inside.
