Vanguard's Supreme Cases are designed to cope with the most rugged conditions a photographer can meet.
The sturdy construction is designed to withstand 120kg of external weight to protect your valuable camera gear inside. With the padded divider bag inside it can withstand most serious knocks and bumps.
The Supreme Cases are also O-ring sealed which ensures they are waterproof up to a depth of 5 meters (or 16 feet), airtight/dustproof and built to withstand temperatures of -40°C to +95°C.
To keep your equipment secure, the Supreme Cases have steel-reinforced lock holders. Secure with a good padlock and no-one will be able to get in without some serious cutting equipment. Just don't forget your padlock key or combination or you'll find out just how difficult they are to get into!
For air travel, the Supreme Case comes with an automatic air equalization valve. No need for you to remember to do anything - just place your camera equipment in the case, lock it and relax. The case will ensure that the pressure differences you'll experience as you travel to your next photography adventure are not a problem.
All Supreme Cases come with a choice of Foam Inserts ("F" models) and removable Divider Bags ("D" models). The key benefit of the "F" models is that they can be tailored exactly to your kit for the best possible protection, but if your gear changes you'll probably have to buy new foam and start from scratch.
Inside this Supreme Case "F" model, you’ll find a customizable foam insert. The hexagonal pieces can be removed, allowing you tailor the internal setup for your personal kit. As the removable pieces are hexagonal, it means there is a "serrated" edge to the cut-outs (as opposed to "flat" if the pieces you removed were square) which maximises the hold on your kit and minimises any movement as you travel. If you have a fixed kit, it’s definitely the most secure way to travel, but if you change your gear you may need to replace the foam inserts.
This Supreme 53F measures 630 x 520 x 240mm and weighs 10.4kg, with foam inserts that gives an internal kit compartment of 560 x 410 x 200mm, which is suitable for up to 12, depending on size.
So whether you're going on a full-blown photo-adventure or just wanting peace of mind to store your camera gear, you'll struggle to get better protection than a Vanguard Supreme Case.
