Can you recommend a good hardshell storage and shipping case?
A The Cadillac of XL1 hard cases is the CasesPlus TC2000. You can drop your XL1 right in, with microphone and LightWave accessories attached; no camera disassembly required. The custom-fit foam insert holds your camera with the MA-100 shoulder pad mounted, and includes space for an extra lens, batteries, tapes and accessories. Storage cases don’t get any better than this.
