Pelican Introduces the iM2050 Pelican Storm GP1 and GP2 Cases for GoPro® Cameras

Like all Pelican Storm Cases, the GP1 and GP2 both sport a high-performance HPX™ polymer construction to protect sensitive equipment from some of the harshest conditions on Earth. It also features extremely strong Press & Pull latches to ensure that the case stays secure in rough situations. Additional features include a lid equipped with a polymer o-ring for a dust and watertight seal, and an automatic pressure equalization Vortex™ valve that stops moisture from entering the case and prevents vacuum-lock so the case opens easily at any altitude.
