    @joe In order to keep features basic and cost within my budget I can't put in a thread for this model.

        Well its nothing like the original, but it is cheaper that other alternatives such as a pelican case. The case will still be nice to use even if it is not as portable as long as it is durable I will be happy. Remember guys you are not guaranteed anything from anything you back on kickstarter. Good luck with everything Matt, thank you for keeping everyone posted, I am sure it can be a bit hectic, an adventure I'm sure!

    The size isn't going to be much bigger. It will be about to fit a canon 5d with a standard lens perfectly. A camera with dimensions 6" x 4.6" x 8" will fit perfectly. As for added features, there will be ways to reorient the strap. Nothing crazy. It will be the same simple case.

        How soon till we know a more precise delivery date, even a better estimate?
        I'm seeing a week for design; 5 weeks for molds; X weeks for final tinkering; and then full production, packaging, delivery.
        I've held of buying a new camera case waiting for this, and with a trip in early August, it might not make sense for me to wait.

        How do we change our address?

        +1 on Alex Hazlewood's question. I too have a trip planned and a more detailed estimate for shipping would be a great help.

    hey everyone, I understand everyone anxiety on this project. Keeping the cost down with-in budget while getting in all the features is tough and proving very difficult. I'll be putting out a full update soon but for now I'll try and come on here every once an while to update everyone. Matt

        Matt, it has been a while with no updates or estimated time of release of the case. Where do you stand? Thanks

    I like the idea of cam crate working with the capture system. And the way I plan to have a 1/4-20 thread near the hinge will make this work perfectly. Thanks everyone for the input!
