Default Pelican Cases


As recommended by people in the Forum, I got me a Pelican case (en
route) for my digicam (en route)

Having experience with the larger cases they make, once I knew they made
a camera-sized case, I knew it was the one to get. I didn't think it
would be as cheap as it was, ebay, new, $20cdn (from a business in
Vancouver)

With this case, I suspect the life expectancy of THIS camera will be
more than 15 months

I've been using the 1010 size of the pelican case. It is very water
proof - I'd trust it holding my digital camera at a water park. It also
seems to be quite sturdy.

Silly Sofa...Pelican cases are for pelicans, not cameras.

For pelicans you are supposed to use a -pouch-.

Try these 'Aquapac (link)' (http://www.aquaman.co.uk/), very nice
pouches, no pelicans required.

A wonderful bird is the pelican,

His bill will hold more than his belican.

He can take in his beak

Food enough for a week,

But I'm darned if I see how the helican.
