It was very had to tell the size of this case online. It is just big enough to hold the camera and a few lenses. Wish it were a little larger as I carry a spare battery and charger and mini tripod as well. I will use this for short day trip photo shoots.

Best Deals for VG Plum Purple Laurel DSLR Camera Carrying Bag with Removable

I purchased this for my new Canon SX40 HS and given purple is my favorite color I was really excited to receive it. When the product arrived the color had my full attention as it is a beautiful shade of purple however when I opened the product the zipper got stuck 3/4 of the way to a full unzipped state. I checked it out and made sure it wasn't getting stuck on the material on the inside and it did not appear to be the issue so I zipped and unzipped it many times to see if it was a "wear in" issue and again that was not the issue as it only seemed to get jammed the more it was used.

When I was done messing with the zipper and decided it was a defect and would exchange it I opened the product and checked out the inside. There was NO WAY I was about to put my new Canon SX40 HS inside the flimsy material cradle for the camera. The size of the product would allude to plenty of room for equipment / attachments which is not possible the way it is made. If one were to think of this 3 dimensionally, when the product is unzipped (remember the zipper catches 3/4 of the way at full open), there is a very thin flimsy but soft material where the camera is to be cradled. When the camera is placed in this small pouch it is weighed down a lot. To place anything else in the case you must gently lift the flimsy soft material and without really seeing what you are doing there is a small space beneath the camera pouch and the bottom of the bag to put additional equipment like the battery charger, extra battery, cables, and memory card. If you have a lot of attachments like myself this is definitely NOT the product for you. If your camera is a valuable, priceless, can't do without item this product is NOT for you. Spend the extra money and buy a much more rugged, spacious, padded product with room to grow. Any camera buff or photographer will tell you additional "toys", equipment, attachments and so on is inevitable especially with the Canon SX40 HS that has so many options and many capabilities with the help of additional attachments to do many of the things a DSLR can do without the major initial expense of purchasing a DSLR camera.

Now for the seller, as the title indicates the customer service is top notch! I notified them about zipper that stuck 3/4 of the way open and they sent me a replacement at no charge and didn't require me to send in the defective product. The replacement arrived within a couple of days. The downside is the zipper on the replacement also jammed. I was going to use the replacement for a couple of point and shoot camera's that are already in hard cases but would have been easier to haul around if I could just throw the hard cases into one bag. I am not using the original or the replacement bag.

To sum up, the product is very eye appealing but not, in my opinion, suited for an expensive camera. There is no room for additional equipment, there is virtually no padding to protect your precious equipment and the zipper is defective or made poorly. The seller is great.
