I wiki'ed their size and lenses are nearly identical. Roughly .5 cm difference.

Ver 1: 12.8 cm x 25.2 cm

Ver 2: 12.8 cm x 24.8 cm

Does any anyone know if my version 1 can fit into a version 2 case?

You aren't talking a lot of difference. Here are some photos you can decide...if it was me I would try because the worse that would happen is you have to trim (make thinner) the high density foam they put on the ends. If you can get at a reasonable price I would try.....here are the photos you decide....but with my 300 VII with a jacket on it, the fit was snug.

Read the tape measure from the left to the right. The 20 is lined up on the right hand edge of the foam.

I can confirm that the Canon 300 f/2.8 IS MK I with a hood, lens coat and plate attached to the foot fit into the V2 case very nicely.
