Does anyone have a good source for custom ordering a couple of flight (ATA Style) cases for GL2's and accessories.

I need to get a couple of cases for my cams, wireless kits, cables, wide lenses and lighting. I'm looking for foam lined where the units are custom cut foam and my equipment will fit in snug.

Anyone with a good experience on this please let me know. I worked for a music retailer years ago and have contacted a case company that I used to work with and they're willing however they don't really have experience with this type of equipment, only with keyboards and guitars etc.

I suppose that I can measure all the equipment myself and forward them the dimensions. I'd however prefer to deal with someone that does this all the time for our industry and has all the standards.

Thanks in advance...

Check with Tom at www.Zotzdigital.com , I got an excellent hard case, water proof, foam lined with cutouts for the GL2 and accessories. Made by Underwater Kinetics, CA, $125 if I remember rightly.

Peli cases are the way to go. Strong, water-resistant as well as pressurised. Choice of colours and sizes and all with foam interior which you tear out to suit your needs.
