Problably the worlds smallest 500mm lens case! Useful for those desiring a ultra-compact case for air travel or general around town shooting (this case is well within U.S. domestic airline carry-on regulations).

• Designed specifically for a Canon or Nikon 500/4, 500/4.5 or 200-400/4 lens (including the tripod mount, Arca-swiss plate & hood attached and reversed) without a body attached.*
• Will hold 300/2.8 or 400/4 DO with the hood in the shooting position (measure your rig to make sure).
• Side-walls are constructed of 12mm (1/2") closed-cell foam and the bottom features our rugged 13mm PolyCore™ stiffiner.
• Kinesis "H-Series" harness (H245 or H250 + H130) can be attached to this case and worn as a backpack.
• Two single-wide or one double-wide pouch (A257 Body Pouch or M330) can be attached to outside.
• An unpadded hand grap strap is sewn into this case.
• A tripod cannot attach to this case.
• Field Report (July 07): Canon 500/4 IS will fit in this case with the following after-market adaptions--LensCoat™ neoprene cover, Don Zeck Lens cap, Op/Tech 3XL Hood Hat (fits over the LensCoat) & 4th Generation Adapter Plate (a low profile Acra-Swiss plate).
• Field Report (Aug 07): Nikon 600/5.6 D-ED (circa 1990) will fit in this case with a Op/Tech Hood Hat.

*Although this bag was not designed to hold a lens and a body together, it will fit a "small body" with a 300mm lens attached as defined by the depth measurements at this link. Larger bodies (Canon 1D or Nikon D2 series) will also fit, but it is very snug, and to remove the camera body you must pull it out with the camera strap as there is little room to slide your hand down the sides of the camera body.
