I’m a professional photographer and have used 4 of these cases holding 4 & 8GB CF cards for almost two years and was quite satisfied. The only dissatisfaction was when I turned over my used cards as a means of quickly identifying filled cards the closure was not secure. Overall I liked the look since it looks like my Halliburton briefcase.
However, the last three I purchased were all defective. I suspect the quality control in the country of manufacture has diminished. I returned one to my local retailer and sold my last two at a substantial discount since my return postage and time would make it a wash. The two cases purchased through Amazon/Adorama had the following defects:
1) The outer metal cover fell off because the glue strip was old and did not stick very well.
2) There was a small dimple in the metal outer cover and was “sprung” making closure difficult.
The hard plastic clamshell packaging on both were in great shape so I’m assuming that they were packed this way in China.
I would no longer recommend this product. My e-mail to Digital Foci went unanswered.
UPDATE 10/2009:
I’ve owned many of these (Digital Foci) CF cases. When they first came out they were an elegant looking solution for storage. They still provide an easy recognizable holder for CF cards in a camera bag. However, as they slowly fall apart (metal cover comes off and the latch mechanism degrades) I have changed to the Pelican 0940-010-110 Compact Flash Memory Card Case.
For an extra ~$7.00 you get Pelican’s polycarbonate case that closes very securely and is “watertight”. I can flip over filled CF cards and the case still closes with a snap. There is a rubber gasket that surrounds the compartment unlike the “Digital Foci” that has a plastic tongue and groove that does not go all the way around.
I purchased the “Digital Foci” cases for the way they looked. At the time I did not know Pelican made a CF Card cases even though I had a Pelican case for my camera. Pelican’s main focus has been protecting high-end electronic gear and photo/video equipment so their pedigree is well earned. Pelican has a lifetime Guarantee.
