We have a Sony F3 at work with the 3 sony lenese (35, 50 and 85). We are also buying an adapter and a few Canon lenses. Is their an affordable case to store multiple lenses? We really want to protect all of our lenses, but still have a case that is not a pain to transport. Thanks!
 
Best way to do it, is find the case you like and that will fit everything. Buy it without foam. Then take it to a local foam place and just have them cut it out how you want it. Cost me $100 bucks for foam and cutting on my lens case. Otherwise your doing the pic and pull foam that comes with case and it will not be round for glass, for a good fit.

Best if you get a piece of poster board cut it to inner dimensions of case then draw out "exact dimension" in metric. Depth also! Then you can just hand it off and skip them having to design it. He will just enter your dimensions in a program and cut it in a day or two. Less work for them and cheaper for you, if you have exactly what you need ready.

Awesome. Thanks!
 
I have the exact same lenses (3 Sony PL and a few Nikon zooms) and very recently purchased the HPRC case. I also own a Pelican case, but like this one much better and it is less expensive [$185]. I did pluck the foam but the lenses fit well and there is room for a few more. It really closes nicely, has wheels, and a comfortable handle. I am very happy with it for a lens case.

FYI that case fits the Panasonic 17 monitors really nice,as well.
 
Porta Brace PB2700 removable interior case, hard case on the out side removable soft case inside. I've had this for over a year now and traveled overseas with it no complaints so far. Porta Brace makes soft lens cases that attach to your belt via Velcro.

I carry the majority of my lenses in multiple Storm case im2500's which are water tight, and have better latches than Pelican cases.
