    Have a 1450 pelican for my D80 and a few lenses.

    Dividers.

    Dividers all the way. I’ve used pelican cases for years and own a few still.

    That foam is good if you have a case dedicated to specific gear as it offers a firmer fit for travels on airplanes, etc. But it flakes off little pieces of black ‘foam crumbs’ over time which is bad mojo for digital. And once you cut your shape you can’t go back. :-/

    Dividers on the other hand are don’t flake off and are adjustable. Plus you can get light blue or yellow as your color which is easier to use when it’s dark out. Hope this helps.

    I am currently looking for a waterproof bag or case for my new DSLR for boat trips.

    I’ll add my dos pesos into the dividers hat.

    I’ve got a bunch of foam and hate it. It’s nice if you have foam cut for your gear, but the tear away pieces are wack.

    Dividers. Rearrangeable and don’t trap sand like foam.

    I just purchased a Stormcase I2720, an it has the foam. I definitely like the divider system better, but I was afraid with a lot of air travel that it was not the best idea. I will only be using it for travel, so I guess it will be ok.

    Ditto on the dividers, but one other option.
