Ah, that is why I just have the one big case! I have the 665? That
works well to hold just about everything. I agree that the cut foam is
more stable, but if one has the divided compartments with lens cases and
a bit of extra padding around, it should be alright. Another trick I
use is to pack all my clothing in the case as extra padding also
reducing the number of bags I need.

Yes - the foam makes them sort of permanent arrangements. I was thinking
of
buying extra foam inserts tailored to different combos but it would be
too
expensive. But someone with the will and time could construct a fairly
well-padded interior with divided compartments using closed cell foam
sheet
(like those camping mats).
Me, I like the shock/impact protection of the foam. I am working to
arrange
three basic kits in three different cases. I already have two Pelican
cases
for camera use; but they are smallish and really suited to a body + zoom
+ a
wide angle or standard and a few accessory bits. Next purchase is going
to
be a largish case - maybe a Hardigg - for at least two bodies + fairly
good
mix of lenses + accessories like filters, etc.
Then my only only dilemma will be loading the car......... WHICH one do
I
take today??! ;)
