One of the biggest problems most photographers face when traveling is related to the number of bags they require in order to carry around all of their equipment, but it would seem that a company called CaseCruzer might have a solution to all of these issues in the form of the CaseCruzer PSC300.

According to the manufacturer, the Photo StudioCruzer 300 (or PSC300, for short) is lined with polyethylene foam that helps maintain and regulate interior temperatures where Canon DSLR/SLR cameras, laptops, memory cards and other essentials are stored. The case accommodates most laptop computer brands up to 17", but also plenty of DSLRs, including numerous Canon models (5D Mark II – 5D, EOS 7D, EOS 50D – 40D, 30D – 20 D, Rebel T2i – T1i – XS) and Nikon cameras, such as D60 – D70 – D80 – D90, D700 – D300S, D3000 – D5000. The exterior of the PSC300 is injection-molded with ultra high-strength polypropylene copolymer resin, while the molded-in hinges provide additional protection for the inevitable tumble or jolt. The waterproof case is also dust tight (MIL-C-4150J), submersible and resistant to corrosion and severe impact. The case measures 21.75"L x 13.75"W x 8.99"H and weighs only 13 lbs with foam, while the built-in wheels and extendable pull handle give photographers speedy mobility in all terrains. Additionally, the front snap-down rubber over-molded cushion grip handle makes the carrying case easy to lift, while two padlock holes give the case a lock-down function that secures equipment against theft. But consolidation would not be possible without the remarkable 6-compartment capability of the PSC300, with foam dividers holding a Canon or Nikon camera body and up to four lenses in separate compartments. Three foam cavities allow for flexible camera battery storage methods, while another compartment holds up to six compact flash memory cards. An accessory compartment stores additional lenses, lens caps, battery chargers, battery cables for laptop, and other accessories, this area including a center foam divider to hold items firmly. Finally, the laptop compartment – a removable sleeve – is contained in the lid of PSC300 and closes with Velcro fasteners. The surface of the lid compartment door is covered with polyethylene foam to prevent contact with camera and lenses, and the lid also houses a large area for accessories. And if you're wondering just how much such a complete protection solution for all your photographic gear will set you back, you should know that we're talking about a fairly affordable sum, of just around 240 US dollars.
