It's hard to tell exactly which Pelican is right for you, but I must say, I was lucky to have picked the exact one that suits my needs. AND, the whole case slides underneath my bed (clears by 1/16"). I opted for the dividers and pretty much started from scratch so I could work the lightstand, umbrella, mounts and clamp into the case. Frankly, I think I could have done a better job utilizing the space, but I was just ready get everything squared away.

What works

Everything. Feels indestructible. Wheels!!!

Room for improvement

Make no mistake about it, this thing is heavy. (But, that's what wheels are for!)

Weird gear list I know, I wanted to show it with a bunch of random sized stuff so you could better judge its size its really a sports kit and houses the 400 and tele, 2 big bodies, 17-35, 24-70 and 70-200 flashes are out of there bags placed in the lid organizer along with the Pocket Wizards, batteries, cards and card reader, misc wires

What works

Solid, I have had to ship it via UPS a couple times and that says it all right there, easy to roll one or two big cases vs. carrying several medium ones

Room for improvement

Cost is to high on all hard cases and it should come with more dividers, I could see running out if I had a lot of small items like 6 flashes and Pocket Wizards and not a big lens down the middle
