Sometimes only a heavy-duty hard case will do when we want to protect a sizeable volume of expensive photo or video gear during transportation. Even if we’re just entrusting it to a courier’s white van, rather than airplane hold.
Peli is often the go-to brand in this category, but there are alternatives. Enter the Vanguard Supreme 53D to highlight the example here. Its manufacturer’s pitch is that not only is it ultra tough, but that photographers can stash up to 14 camera bodies with grips or pro level lenses within an internal zippered bag. That’s an impressive amount of kit. Said bag is also removable, as well as its Velcro-style dividers adjustable.
