I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you.
The recess is 5 cm (2") wide, a battery pack of an F or F2 is 4.5 cm wide. From what I've seen, the Remopack is a little bit wider.
You just saved me from looking for yet another case!

Does your FB-11 have facing camera saddles? That's what my father schelped around Kodak in Rochester for years. Even after years of service it looked wonderful. Never saw the canvas cover in any of the price sheets from back then.
Thanks for sharing!

I have an earlier version of this, with the older Nikon logo embossed on the top (the diagonal on the N is curved, like on the Nikon S). But I can't figure out what goes where inside the case -- all these cubbies and pockets but nothing seems obvious. Need a manual!
Two camera holders on the top deck, side-to-side, allow for a decent lens to be attached. Top deck comes out to reveal compartments below. These days- i fill them with some collectible Nikon gadgets.
We'll do a "What's in Brian's Vintage Bag" soon.

You mean like the meter illuminator that screws into the eyepiece? The 52mm ND400 filter?
Can not wait to see!

I have the Meter Illuminator- some 30+ years ago found one with a dead bulb and hacked it for LED.
No ND400... But boxed sets of 52mm filters from the RF era.

That seems to look like mine.
Nikon S2 Compartment Case
I bought an old Nikon Compartment Case for the Nikon S2 / SP. This quality is no longer produced today. The insert is made of sheet steel! A few seams were unraveling and part of the shoulder strap was missing. But I already fixed that. The zipper wasn't torn, that was the most important thing...

And also I'm searching the net for brochures pix or anything similar.
I could not find anything in R. Rotolonis book, old Handbooks in the brochures on Pacific Rim Cameras . . . .
I've been moving LOTS of lenses, cameras, finders, etc from the room my Daughter will use for a Home Office.
I've found stuff forgotten about....

We have always been hunters and gatherers ;-)
It doesn't matter if we need it,
what matters is that we have it.

While I'm waiting for my FB-3 to return from repairing the zipper, I'll at least post the leaflet.
