Drop the camera, freeze it, soak it - we climbers nuke our photo equipment. At last, a compact-camera case made for the vertical: the MOGOMOTO PROTOTYPE ALPINIST CASE ($68.95, mproto.net), a black-box-solid metal shell designed by climbers. The Alpinist weighs 5.8oz and is machined from corrosion-proof, aircraft-grade 6061 T6 and 5051 aluminum alloys. The interior, meanwhile, is lined with foam, to cradle your point-and-shoot baby. A clip-off eye, magnetic latch, and lock cord mean you can harness-carry sans droppage, and then transfer the camera to your wrist loop without its ever being untethered.

Design Within Reach
From Outside Magazine - October 2009
At just under six ounces, MOGOMOTO PROTOTYPE's aircraft-grade aluminum ALPINIST CASE is designed to be light and tough, protecting climbers' cameras from untimely smashings. But the case is so sharp-looking that you'll want it for less extreme pursuits, too - traveling, hiking, or just jamming into your carry-on for the weekend. From $56; mproto.net
