I've had one for years. I like mine. Very good case but probably wouldn't give total protection from side damage. But none of that style do. Seem to remember them being infused with some sort of rust...

I have one, it’s fine, although I don’t use it much. Decent enough quality. Slightly too long to fit across my back seat from memory, and if you have a scope with tallish turrets on the side -...

NZ TOPO50 is what I use. Buy either the North or South Island, have the whole island downloaded on your phone. Pretty cheap too

NZTopo50 user here too. The aerial view isn't flash but I think if you zoom in full at home, then it caches some of that data. Does everything I need. If you check out some of the howto information...

NZ Topo 50 is great - also use Pocket Maps from Walking Access. Has various layers inc some pretty good aerial imagery. Best of all it is free.

NZ Topo 50- the guy who does it is really good to work with and he's got a layer set up with legal access to some obscure public blocks which is handy with the tracking feature on a cellphone.
