It is attached via a thumb screw that you can twist without need for a screwdriver. You can use a coin or similar item if it is too tight to turn by hand. It does have an edge as it is about the thickness of 3 quarters stacked up. The side is grooved to have a texture for your fingers to grab, but if you tightened it too tight you may need a coin to loosen.
It protects the camera well. The only exposed part of the camera is from the sides which are open. Dirt and other things can contact the camera thru the open ends of the case. Keys in a purse for instance could scratch the sides of your camera. Another feature that is why I only gave it four stars is the fact that once you have the case on, you have to bend it down below the camera to take pictures and have it out of the way. You can get used to it if have good hand coordination. I have been bending the first fold in the case which is right at the bottom of the camera to relax and loosen it. I image after is wears in, the case will simply hang down straight and not want to stay angled up toward the front of the camera anymore. The case is designed to attach at the bottom and fold up over the front of the camera, then the top side and down the back and then fold over the bottom and attach via magnetic closure. The magnet seems plenty strong to keep it closed.
I will keep this case even despite the two limitations I've found. I like the way it looks and stores. And the fact that it is quick to remove make it one of the best cases out there for me.

The beauty of this case over every other camera case in the market is that it has a magnetic flip design and remains attached to the camera. When paired with a DSC-T series camera (T90/T900/TX1/etc) this means the camera and case are slim enough for a guy to carry in their pocket. When you see a picture opportunity, boom, whip out the camera, flip open the case, slide down the lens cover, snap pic, return lens cover, flip close case, back in pocket and on your way again. It's super great. There is no fumbling with a case while you take your picture, it simply hangs out of the way.The down side of the attached case/one handed operation is that yes you do have to unscrew the case to change a battery. Like once a day big deal. The people who complain about this are girls, who have the benefit of a purse to hold the camera case so don't like the inconvenience of this design. So don't give this case to a girl, do pair it up with a DSC-T camera for a guy.
It looks that Sony has dropped this case so buy extras now nobody will ever make this superior case again. It was a freak of nature that it ever made it to a product you and I could use.
I have used this case for 8 months and love it. and the DSC-TX1 I paired it with. I have a very active 7 year old and this was the first camera that I carry *everywhere* due to the superior slim camera and fast to use case. The pictures I have captured as a result are priceless. Before this I had a camera that stayed at home in a drawer, it was too big and cumbersome, missed so many wonderful memories.

i want to give this a 5 star because i love the case but it does lack some stuff an ideal case should have. a perfect 10 for aesthetic value, this case looks cool and elegant plus it serves its function in protecting the camera. the included stylus is also great when it comes to editing your picture. you dont have to take out the camera out of the cover to take pictures, which for me a very great feature that most camera case doesnt have. it is custom fit thus perfectly fit the camera size, not bulky even if you carry it on your pants pocket. You do have to unscrew the camera to take off the batteries and memory card which is the downside of this case. And also being not bulky has a price to pay, you'll have to carry all the extra batteries, memory cards, charger and others in a seperate case or daypack. All in all, i'd suggest anyone to get this case if you have the t200 or t70 camera, as it do a really good job protecting the camera at almost all time other than picture taking, and it is easy since yu dont have to take it out of the case to take pictures.Honest reviews on Sony LCJTHC/B Genuine Leather Jacket Case with Stylus for
I would have given the case a 3.5 star rating but they don't do halfs. The case is nice because it's not bulky yet it still does a good job of protecting the camera. The magnetic flap makes it easy to get the camera out for pictures.There are two down sides to the camera because it case screws into the bottom of the camera. 1: It's not very convienant to get the battery out for charging or the memory stick out to put into the computer. 2: Sometimes the case (since it is always attached unless unscrewed) when taking a vertical picture can get in the way.
