I got a Pelican 1200 for the cam, I thought i would share this with yall. It was $40 and damn worth it, its pink anti-static foam. I kept it small so I could stick it in a backpack.
I could drop this thing off a cliff and it would be fine!

Yes that is a nice case. You should not drop it because you will damage the case. How much did it cost?

Pelican makes a fine product. However, I've recently switched over to another manufacturer: here is my report (http://www.dvinfo.net/conf/showthread.php?s=&threadid=17323).
I've never seen the anti-static foam (jeez, what a color!) Was that offered through Pelican?

Fred, he said he paid $40 for it.
Interesting info there Charles about the other cases. Thanks.

Not a true camera case, but I picked up this aluminum case at Lowes for $29.00.

It seems to be a good alternative for us "monetarily challenged" folks. :)
