I generally only take what will fit in my small Lowepro bag for recreational shooting or vacation trips. However, I like having a kit that includes everything for important location shoots. I also like being able to carry most of my equipment down to my studio (which is in the basement of my house) in one case. Plus, the Pelican is very protective of gear. It's airtight, and I have a number of bags of anti-dessicant packed in with the gear. It can absorb a lot of shock without causing damage to the gear. I used to be able to carry it on planes. It will fit in the overhead, although just barely. I haven't taken it on a plane lately, so I'm not sure that they would allow that today. However, I wouldn't be afraid to check it. I have those travel combination locks on it. On Dec 3, 2006, at 8:46 AM, Boris Liberman wrote:
