A camera shoulder case is provided which permits rapid opening, full visability, and easy access to one layer of securely held equipment in the case while the case remains supported by a shoulder strap on the user. The assembly includes a lower case part which holds the equipment, a cover pivotally mounted to the rear of the lower case part, and a shoulder strap having opposite ends mounted to opposite sides of the lower case part. A flexible loop member which is mounted to the cover, slidably receives the shoulder strap. With the case supported on a person, access is obtained by pulling up on the cover to pivot down the lower case part until it is horizontal, the strap-receiving loop then resisting closing of the cover. The lower case part can be partitioned by the user to securely hold equipment by the use of pylon devices that can be installed in selected holes of an array of holes formed at the bottom of the lower case part.
