I bought this case sight unseen, as I needed a relatively inexpensive and yet durable case for my digital camera for an upcoming mountain biking trip. I must admit to being slightly disappointed in that this is not all that was promised in the description of the product. In the description it clearly says that this case features an "All Weather Cover for "challenging" weather." The zipper when closed does not look like it will keep rain out should you be caught in a downpour. However, there is a cover which comes out of the bottom of the bag which is supposed to be employed for the harshest weather, but I am not 100% certain that in a deluge some water would not get in anyway. I have been in harsh rains, and I would not entirely trust this to keep all rain out from my digital camera. A minor disappointment, but one nonetheless. [See UPDATE at bottom]

My second disappointment came with the shoulder straps......they attach via plastic hooks which look like they could easily break. I will be taking my camera biking with me and I do not want it flying off my shoulder at 30 miles per hour, so this is somewhat of a concern. As such, the plastic shoulder attachments do not exactly inspire confidence in me. [This is still a minor concern]

**** 1/2 stars

UPDATE: I took this on a mountain biking trip recently, and it worked marvelously. Highly recommended. Excellent product.

Got this for my Cyber-shot camera for hiking and camping trips.

Was surprised to find it was even roomy enough for the new HD camcorders, obviously not to hold both.

The adjustable velcro loops came in handy to tie the case to other backpacking gear, rather than have it hanging from my neck or shoulder.

Lowepro is so good with camera gear.

Best Deals for Lowepro Compact Digital Camera Case

Bought this bag for the Canon 570is. Fits fine plus two AA's and SD card. Even with the camera and all this it is a small, light package. Cannot carry camera instructions in bag but not necessary for me.

Too light to carry as a shoulder strapped bag. It can flip off your shoulder. Carry this camera bag in larger bag or purse. Bag will fit in my glove compartment or travel pack or golf bag. If you want to carry instructions, battery charger etc get a bigger bag. On trips I will carry those separately. Think of this as a day use camea bag.

Lowe makes good camera bags this camera to simply too small and light to carry as a shoulder bag. Will find a simple handle that would attach instead of shoulder strap. Perhaps like the one on the camera.

Honest reviews on Lowepro Compact Digital Camera Case

I purchased the D-Res 10AW bag for my then-new Olympus D460 Zoom. Cordova, AK experiences more than 160 inches of rain annually so "all-weather" is important. This series has a hidden nylon rain poncho that can be pulled out from the belt slide side of the bag, around the bottom and up over the top for nearly complete rain coverage. It's well padded with room for additional memory cards and a spare set of 4 AA batteries (NiMH, of course). I pack this camera nearly everywhere, and the case strap and belt slide have yet to let me down. If you have any doubts, know that this is the company that was started by a mountaineer, designing and building climbing packs.
