I wanted a camera bag that would protect my camera yet not be too big and bulky to carry and I found just the right one. I spent a lot of time looking at size and features. It's about the size of a small purse. I liked that this bag has 2 zippered compartments. One with a double zipper for the camera itself that folds out to make access to the camera easier and a second shallow compartment for accessories. The shoulder strap is just the right size and the padded insert is a nice touch. Top handle is very practical for when you want to grab the bag and go. I have a Panasonic G3 with a 14-42mm standard kit lens and the camera fits perfectly in one section of the bag, the other end of the bag has enough room to store the battery charger and other small accessories with mesh pockets and a small zippered insert to hold small or very important things like money, credit cards, extra batteries or SD cards. Last weekend for a trip to the zoo I was able to put the important items from my purse in the second compartment eliminating the need for a wallet. The bag is smallish, lightweight and padded enough to protect your camera. Not large enough to hold a ton of gear, however I believe an small extra lens would fit. It did have an odd odor when it arrived but since it arrived before the camera, I unpacked it and the smell was gone in no time. Mine is solid black. The best bag is one that you can store your camera in so that you can just grab it and go and don't mind being seen with it.. This is the one. I am very happy with this purchase.

Excellent size! I needed a bag that would travel inside of my underseat duffle, and this little case is perfect. It fits my G5 and my 14-45 lens comfortably in the front compartment. There are double zippers on the front compartment that make it convenient to get into, and the whole case is well padded. Its rigid shape is sturdy enough to withstand normal jostling/crushing if packed with other items. The zippered back has stretchable compartments inside with plenty of room for extra batts, lens caps, memory cards, and cables. There is a convenient see-through zippered compartment in the back flap that is handy for carrying card keys, money, & anything flat. The front is roomy enough for an extra lens if you wrapped it really well in bubble wrap. Very nice padded shoulder strap, and the padded handle on top is very convenient.

The overall quality is quite good for the price. I bought the sky blue case, and the color is clear and stylish. The zippers seem to be sturdy and smooth, and the stitching on the top handle looks like it will hold up under normal use. The strap attachments are plastic except for the metal catch bar, so if anything breaks under heavy &/or long-term use, it might be the strap attachments. Also, the strap attachments are a little hard to unlatch, but nothing major.

This case is designed to accomodate the size and weight of the Panasonic Lumix, so anything bigger &/or heavier is going to put stress on the straps and the zippers. It could be used to transport any small camera and a few accessories with no problems (like my Sony Cybershot, plus extra batts) for a day trip to the zoo, Disney World, or to a conference.

Outside measurements (approximately): 8"H X 7"W X 4"D.

Overall, a nice little case that looks great and is a perfect size for the Panasonic Lumix.
