Here's an in depth look at why I chose this holster bag over others...

-CONSTRUCTION-

This bag is very well made, durable stitching and high quality zippers. The top handle is nice and feels solid in your hand.

-PADDING-

Thick padding on the inside and visible yellow inside makes it easy to see your DSLR in low light settings.

-PADDED STRAP-

It comes with a removable, padded strap that has a "grippy" texture that is comfortable to wear. Competitors such as Lowepro Toploader and Tamrac holster bags do not come with a padded strap. This is important especially on long trips since the padded strap will be much more comfortable to have over your shoulder for extended periods of time. Excellent strap, however it could've been a little longer.

-WEATHER COVER-

Great feature. Weather cover folds away into the bottom of the case and is attached to the bag so you won't lose it. The cover doesn't completely cover the side of the bag closest to you but this shouldnt be a problem since it covers the top, front, and sides of the bag.

-SIZE-

Great size. I didn't want something too big and the bag is the perfect size for a DSLR with one lens. Fits great with D90 and kit lens but big enough so that if you want to upgrade your lens, there will be enough room.

-CONS-

No side pockets and front pocket is small. I wish that there were more pockets but it does have a front pocket to store small accessories like a spare battery, lens cloth, or filter. Front pocket does not have too much space but is adequate.

Strap could be a little longer. At max length it goes down to my waist when wore across my shoulder and I'm about 5'10"

5/5 I highly recommend this bag!!

I highly recommend it i am on the go all the time with my equipement and the advantage of this holster is that you can carry it around your neck or into a belt or your harness, if you own one

the top zip cover (that you can open from left or right) helps you to have quick access to the camera. you also have 2 mini pocket into the cover where you can slide memory stick or remote control for your flash. on the front, you also have another zip pocket for additional storage.

the plus of this holster is a quick waterproof cover hidden at the bottom of the holster that you can pull up in a ny second if you get caught into a sudden rain or snow, which is a big plus to protect your quipement against humidity.

it easily fits a SLR body along with a 28/80 lense on it (I use a d3000 Nikon)no piece to build or unbuild ready to shot.

the inside flashy bright yellow is also great with you shot in the dark so you are sure you drop your camera into the bag and not miss it.

it is a no brainer

This is an exceptionally well crafted holster bag. Everything about it screams quality, particularly the padding, zipper seal and inner lining. The integrated rain cover is icing on the cake, and came in handy a few times during a recent month long trip. I've been carrying a Canon T3i plus attached EF-S 15-85mm lens and hood with room to spare, which I use to store my RF remote trigger kit and padded camera strap. Except in the case of a really long lens, you can suspend your camera above the bottom of the bag using the movable (velcro) platform wedges. In my case, I didn't even need to reverse the lens hood, which was really convenient. The front pouch is great for thin items like filters, lens cleaners or extra memory cards. You could probably shove a spare battery in there. The inside of the top flap has two additional pockets sized for memory cards, which is where I put mine. The fact that the top flap opens away from your body was also appreciated. Really, I have nothing bad to say about this bag. At all.

Honest reviews on Ape Case Standard Digital SLR Holster Camera Bag (ACPRO650)

I had eyeballed this bag and the compact plus variant. I thought that I could possibly fit my T3i with an attached lens, plus an additional lens into this bag all at once.

This would allow me the freedom of swapping lenses without having to carry my much larger Amazon DSLR backpack.

By removing the velcro supports I freed up enough space to do what I wanted. I have a 55-250mm zoom lens on my camera, and inside a neoprene pouch is my kit lens (18-55mm).

Any similar sized lens combo should be able to fit just fine!

As far as the quality of the bag it is well made and looks durable. The rain cover is a nice feature! (But I hope I won't ever need it!)

A perfect size of an afternoon's shooting on the go. If you know what you need and don't need to carry a full size gear backpack this is the way to go. Currently it holds a Canon T3 with battery grip w/ a 28-80mm lens with enough room for a 50mm lens in the very bottom. But it will easily fit the T3 body with the 75-300mm lens I know I tried it out.

A padded handle on the top, a belt loop on the back and hooks for included neck/shoulder strap are your carrying options.

Inside is well padded in a bright vibrant yellow w/velcro adjustable camera body supports. On the interior top flap there is storage for memory cards and on the exterior a front vertical zipper for whatnot.

The construction seems very durable with a water repellent fabric, metal zipper pulls w/tags, and quality stitching. And as an added benefit on the rear by the botton is small area with velcro closure inside is an attached rain cover.

Very happy with this purchase.
