fit. This case preserves camera compact credentials by tightly hugging it on all sides
protection. I feel confident handling the camera while it is in this case as it's hard shell should protect camera against bumps and even moderate falls.
included neck strap. Camera is always easy to grab and ready to shoot. This is fine alternative to belt cases.
tripod adapter. Camera is secured in the case by tripod adapter that allows me to attach tripod without taking camera out of the case. I often carry it with Gorillapod Video Tripod (Black/Blue) attached, so it is ready for the those shots that require camera to be stabilized.
Canon logo. Hey, we all love our camera, so why not being proud of it :-). Besides, this is officially authorized Canon case, which means that it undergoes stringent specifications requirements and tight quality control before reaching the customers
price. This case looks and feels it's suggested MSRP price, so the 'Deluxe' part of the title is not just a moniker. Buying it at it's current ten dollar (with free Prime shipping) tag is a real bargain.
Not so good stuff:
real leather? I am not an expert but it looks like faux leather to me. No indication on the case except 'Made in China' stamp. Anyway, case looks and feels nice inside and out and provides excellent protection, so the only difference may be the longevity, which I am not ready to judge.
two-piece construction. Case consists of two separate pieces: the sides/bottom piece that is securely connected to the camera and front/top/back piece that connects to the bottom part via three buttons. When you prepare camera for shooting you need to remove the front of the case and you have three ways of doing it: completely unbuttoning it and storing separately or unbuttoning either right most button or two center buttons. Practically though only the first way is useful because the other two alternatives leave front portion of the case hanging freely from the camera and not only making camera uncomfortable to handle but also not hanging very securely as any slight pull might separate the front portion of the case with you either loosing it or having to catch as it falls to the ground. So the dilemma is once you separate the front portion of the case from the rest of the camera, where do you keep it? In the bag? In coat pocket? Either way this is a problem waiting for solution and distracting from using your camera.
So, which case should you buy? If you need more storage for spare battery or memory card, you need to keep looking for a larger case with additional compartments for the accessories. If you are comfortable wearing your camera on the belt, then Canon PSC-500 Deluxe Soft Case is an excellent choice. If you are looking for more sophisticated look, neck strap and ability to leave tripod attached, then this case is a very fine choice and you will not be disappointed.

First the good stuff:Great looking, looks like leather to me. Easy to put on and take off. Solid protection. Great fit. Makes the camera easier to hold.
And now, the not so great:
Neck strap is uncomfortable (I took it off, no biggie). No storage space, even for an extra memory card. The bottom of cover covers the microphones on front, and so it must be completely removed when making movies. The cover also inhibits use of the lens adjustment ring; you can still access it while shooting, it is just a little more awkward with the case on.
Overall, a satisfying purchase, but I might get a soft case with storage when I take this on vacation.
Best Deals for Canon PSC-910 Deluxe Leather Case for Powershot S90, S95, S100
This little case is totally worth it.I am not sure if it is leather or pleather, but if fake it is, the best fake I have ever seen.
And new Canon owners of the S100 will be glad to know it will fit the newer model too.
Yes there are small size differences to the 95, but not enough to make the case unusable. For $10 I took the chance and am very happy with it. Now my little S100 is protected while banging around in my truck or a back.
