COSMOS Black PU Leather Case Cover Bag For Pentax Q 02 Standard Review

Customer Ratings:

Got this a few days ago, and it was surprisingly well made. It fits the Pentax Q with 02 zoom snugly, and the nice stiff, thick lined leather seems like it would protect the camera quite well. I don't have any of the other zooms to see if they fit, but I'd imagine the 06 and 01 would fit without too much trouble. It didn't have a bad smell.

However, a couple of issues. The first point is that the 1/4" tripod mount screw is quite tight and is difficult to properly tighten down. The second, a major point, is that the sides of the case completely block the battery and SD card doors; you need to undo the (tight and difficult) tripod screw to get at them.

So, as long as you don't need to change the battery or replace the card it's a fine case..... but for the average user (who will run through at least one SD card or one battery a day) it's going to be awfully frustrating.

Fits great, and looks sharp. Easy to snap on/off, and doesn't present any real stumbling blocks.

I like it better than zippered cases. They might be better in some ways as protection, but this has a nostalgic look to it, and as I grew up in a 35mm world, I like it. Wish I could find some similar cases for my K5, and canon sx 40hs.

I use the strap that came with the camera though, didn't really care much for the strap included with the case, but that is just my take on it, others can do their thing.
