This is a very nice camera case that I purchased as part of a set Must Have Accessories Bundle Kit For Nikon Coolpix. I would say that the dimensions listed on this page are fairly accurate in reflecting the interior of the case; it holds my Nikon Coolpix S8200 just right, even when I put an extra battery or memory card in the little inside pocket. Speaking of which, I do like having the inside pocket, although a Velcro closure on this would have been nice. Similarly, I like the exterior strap as well, but it is not as easily removable as I'd like (i.e., there are hard plastic clips that do not maneuver easily to come off quickly). However, the best features of this case that will be appreciated by most is that it has two zippers which go completely around and that it is a hard shell to completely protect the camera. Given these aspects, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this handy, inexpensive camera bag.

Today I noticed that the metal "Vidpro" logo on the outside of this camera case attaches with small metal prongs that travel INSIDE the case. This prongs are simply small tabs that fold over onto the inside of the case. Although they are rounded, they were also somewhat rough, and I was concerned that they might actually scratch my camera (this hadn't happened as of yet). Therefore, I lifted up the tabs and removed the logo (this did leave a small indentation as well as small slits in the front of the case, but it is not overly noticeable).
I also have a second issue with this case, although I did mention this in my original review. The case has an inside pocket, which is handy for an extra battery, memory card, etc. However, it is a very loose pocket with NO closure, and I almost lost the the extra battery for my camera because it slipped right out of this pocket. Without the closure, I find it to be almost non-functional, so I am going to add a Velcro strip to it myself.
Given these two issues, I've deducted one star from my original review.As part of our county schools media center we have several iPods and Flip cameras. This Vidpro case is perfect for these items. A very durable case.
