BEST TRAVEL CASE FOR HVX200

[Noah Kadner]

Why not get another Pelican for the HVX. Anything above a 1550 ought to do the trick.

I just took delivery today of a KATA MC-61, on Jan’s recommendation. It’s not a hard-shell, but still seems pretty stiff and reinforced somewhere. My requirements were that it be small enough as a carry-on (not checked luggage), and that I can throw it in the overhead. But this thing seems a bit bulky to me… Jan, are you sure this will fit in an overhead??

Ya,

The 1550 is it (the max for carry-on)

I’m just thinkin it will take some doin’ to get the sunshade and lens
cover in there with the 1/2″ to spare… Ya know…..

Maybe somthin’ else..

Thanks for your input.

I’ve got a portabrace CS-DV4U – its pretty good. Plenty of space but fine for overhead.

Thank you, Leonard Levy,

After checking it out, I decided to go your rout
I purchased a Portabrace CS-DV4U
also. I have been very happy with there products
as well as Pelican and have both in the my shop.

I don’t have a matte box, but there is plenty of room

I took the MC-61 on a plane and it fit in the overhead. I was concerned though, as it does seem really big and I thought the flight attendant at the door might stop me and make me check it, but they let me through.
