It is EXACTLY what you expect!

What can I say that people haven't already said! Bulletproof, easy to load and unload, durable components and this came with the padded dividers which are a huge plus! Yes, it isn't cheap, but Pelican cases are often the last one you will need to buy. And, if you need to buy one, odds are whatever was inside, the vehicle it traveled in and a few dozen bystanders didn't survive as well.

The padded dividers are a major plus. As an audio engineer and field recording specialist, a lot of freelance gigs I do are live shows where the lighting off stage is almost non-existent. The yellow interior actually makes it easier to see what you are grabbing than just the typical black. And, the velcro dividers are just like any other camera bag, but better built.

The 1510 is also TSA compliant for on-board storage on most flights (I say "most", as I did run into an issue once. But that was a strange moment and not the fault of the design). It comes with handles for vertical or horizontal carry, and the handle for using it with the built in wheels can be deployed with one hand (again, perfect for long distance travel).

The cool part that isn't mentioned with other reviews are the attachments.

Yes! There are attachments. And, they are good. My two favorite are the zippered lid organizer (which is "ok", but bolts right in with no fuss!) and the backpack plate, which is a stroke of genius! It simply bolts to the bottom of the case, allowing you to strap it on with the two shoulder straps and a sternum strap. This will make a lot of photographers or field technicians happy because it turns the case from a good commuter case to a serious overland gear solution.

I have had other brands of gear cases, and many of them are fantastic as well. But, Pelican is just a step above that. Is it worth the high price? That is something only you can answer. But, for me it is perfect.
 
A must for a traveling photographer

This is by far one of the best products i've purchased for my camera gear. Extremely rugged and keeps gear save. Very easy to arrange compartments and the material is great quality. Wheeles work great and the extending handle is just long enough for my. I'm 6ft tall and its a good fit. A lot of other caseses the handle is too short. I highly recommend this.
 
Game Changer

5/5 not a complaint in the world. In fact, this is one of those things you buy and are surprised by how much it improves your life. I keep almost all my filmmaking equipment for run and gun shooting in this, and it has made my life so much easier.

I would recommend this to any traveling photographer or filmmaker in a heart beat. It's so pro!
