 Welcome to another unboxing. I personally am of the philosophy that expensive products should come with expensive accessories already, but it almost seems like it works the opposite way doesn't it folks? Where the more expensive a product is, the more the manufacturer kind of goes, ah it's okay they can afford it don't worry about it. So this guy right here this is my NX whatever the heck it's called FS 700 camera like 8500 bucks with the lens kit. Didn't come with a carrying case no I have to spend another hundred bucks or two hundred dollars or whatever this thing ended up costing me on a carrying case because I have to take that camera with me to CES which I am of course super super excited about. So let's have a look at what Pelican has to say for themselves as if no one's ever heard of a Pelican case anyway. Alright Pelican cases what are they good for? Huh a lot of stuff okay automatic pressure purge valve one-way membrane that releases air pressure but keeps moisture out so yeah they're waterproof easy open double throw latches secondary movement works like a pry bar to open with a light pull you know it's a genuine Pelican case by that unique dual band design metal reinforced padlock protectors for added strength and extra security pull out polymer o-rings provide a watertight seal for ultimate protection so basically these are the way to transport super expensive sensitive fragile equipment long distances in rough conditions with no risk to them. Now you know it's funny because I harp on packing materials you know I always say it's gonna have a soft foam and for something like this I'd actually be disappointed if it did have any packing materials inside the case because that to me would be an indication that the manufacturer doesn't think it's suitable as a shipping container so you'll be pleased to see there are absolutely no packing materials whatsoever in the box for my Pelican 1510 case. What else they say guarantees its products for a lifetime against breakage or defects and workmanship they're guaranteed to be watertight to a depth of 3.3 feet for 30 minutes unless otherwise stated does not cover lamps or batteries etc etc etc no abuse clean and inspect the o-ring regularly what else we got to say for ourselves here metal reinforced padlock protector 17 inch locking retractable extension handle non-slip rubberized handles and automatic pressure purge valve heavy-duty urethane wheels. So here it is all right so what do we got here there's our there's our heavy-duty handle which has a rubberized bottom for more comfort when you're carrying it so it's got a little bit of softness to it but not much you can see there's thick thick metal bolts through not one but I mean even if one of these breaks off it's not going anywhere so I'd expect to be able to basically swing this thing around by its handle without any different well it's heavy but you know other than that without any difficulty here's our extending carrying handle which again is using an incredibly rugged sort of construction there's no like telescoping metal sliders this is just like a spring a spring loaded thing here that fits into a notch at the bottom and it's not going anywhere like I could put all my weight on this and it's not going anywhere just like that all right so you can lock that into place you can carry it by that if you want on the side you've got phenomenally rugged looking hinges I'm actually feeling pretty good about this purchase even though it's basically a you know I think I saw the invoice for it when I was unboxing it it's like you know a couple hundred dollar hunk of plastic essentially how much was it perstone perstone yeah 140 bucks 140 dollar piece of plastic but I'm feeling pretty good I mean looking at stuff like this and how it's got nice long metal rods that go through you know one two three like a triple hinge sort of design here okay the wheels look like wheels so nothing out of the ordinary there and here we go here's the main carrying handle so this guy is again our rubber bottomed and then again it's got sort of two pieces of metal or two pieces of plastic interlocked with three on either side there's those metal reinforced padlock spots not one but two of them so in theory if you were going to use this as like if you were going to check it at the airport or whatever else it should be harder to cut your padlocks off and let's go ahead see there's the front so there's some chicken a wetsuit over 40 sizes automatic pressure where did where'd that pressure valve go where is that here's the bottom looks like it could take some sliding without any difficulty I didn't see the pressure valve oh yeah there it is hiding right under my hand genuine pelican case all right let's open this baby up and see what we got okay so okay ah there we go so it latches kind of twice okay so it goes down once but then comes up twice okay neat and it comes with super thick foam inside which you can actually totally customize okay so thank you for your purchase warranty card or something like that special instructions humidity o-ring cleaning instructions solid foam comes with a solid foam follow these steps to customize your layout layout all the items on top of the foam so I for example would take something like my camera and I'd put it here it's obvious I'm not going to get my shotgun mic in there at the same time using chalk trace around the items to create an outline leave at least one inch of foam between the items and the walls of the case you can't go too close to the walls they don't want you to just you know eat it all up here so remove components from the foam with the foam for treating blah blah blah use an eight inch electric knife for a very sharp blade and begin cutting when you think that mistake is made use a rubber cement or spray adhesive to repair the foam remove chalk outline with the damp club we recommend gluing the cut section so basically this one seems to come with little squares so you could just pull out the squares although some of them have solid foam so you would have to cut that you can see you can remove however many squares you want to make your equipment fit and it goes all the way down the entire depth of the case so you can see these are cut all the way through or perforated all the way through so you can do whatever you need to do to get whatever gear you want packed into here and then there's one more layer of foam at the bottom for the ultimate in protection so I have heard that this pelican case is a good fit for this particular camera so we'll have to figure out how exactly it goes in there this piece comes off it's just a matter of going like this and removing it and then this piece comes off so it looks like it's going to fit in there just fine kind of right there and then some accessories can go around it and we should be good to go for our trip to CES thank you for checking out this unboxing and first look don't forget to subscribe to Linus Tech Tips for more unboxings reviews and other computer videos
