For my birthday I got a beautiful bombproof case for my digital video camera. It’s the perfect fit and is so strong that you can drive a car over it without braking it! It’s airtight, watertight, and dustproof…and nice and compact. here are some photos.

That looks like a Pelican case.
Whoa that’s cool. Although I was soughta expecting it to be a case to protect the camera that you can record with… Ok that came out bad.
Like a see through case to protect the camera. Don’t seem em often but I guess they would help if someone stacked it into a camera.
Yeh, a muni-ing friend of mine suggested the other day that we get some sort of case made up (he does that sort of work) so that we can put the camera in it and simply ride over the case (among other things).

I have a similar case, and think it will be a great investment. (as they a quite cheap…and is protecting my Second Digicam)
My case is the Pelican R1020 Microcase.
I sewed together a few layers of neoprene from my wetsuit to make storage areas for a tripod, batteries, and memory. This ended up working perfectly (although I was out of black thread) as it prevents the goods from rattling around, and also presses the camers more firmly into place, with the strap unable to pass the ribs on either side.
The first pic shows the cubbies I cut out, and the second pic is taken from within the case on a self timer.
It’s such a bulky package like this though, that I only use it while uni’ing. A ‘normal’ carrying case will due for the majority of the time.
edit: for all you ‘minor details in photos finders’: what sort of notes (other than ‘quite messy’) are shown in the notebook?
My gawd! You still use a quill, ink bottle and parchment for notes?
In this, and only this, application, and I die a little inside with each handwritten line

Re: My bombproof camera case…
I’d like to see a picture of a car driving over it. I believe you, I just want to see a picture for entertainment purposes.
They have one on the brochure of a four wheel drive with one of these cases underneath each wheel!

Well I have a suggestion for your computer-case when you want to do video-editing on the road:
I agree that Pelican Cases are awsome. I’ve used, one or about 5 years for my digital camera, mostly on whitewater river trips. It can’t be hurt. I’ve had mine fall off a cliff, bounce off rocks and tumble into the river (while closed) and go 1/4 mile down a nasty rapid, fish it out, and the camera was fine. Totally water proof, impact proof. Plus the high visabilty colors (mine it yellow) make it easy to follow when outdoor crazyness ensues, such as the above story.
Test any good bombs on it lately?
Re: My bombproof camera case…
Did you try? Post a video of it.
[EDIT whoops, Toddw beat me to this question.]
Sorry, although I trust their claims I’m still not prepared to scratch up my camera case.
You could wrap it in a towel first
