First, this should really be called a Photo DayPack. It has two distinct areas: one well padded area for photo gear, the other unpadded for things like sweaters, etc.

The camera compartment is not huge, but it will accommodate most peoples digital SLR, mid-range zoom, telephoto zoom and flash, and a few other modest size accessories. It's not a very good bag for a gadget freak you can't decide what to take, so takes everything.

The top compartment serves two useful functions. It gives us a nice, somewhat roomy area for carrying odds and ends; and it extends the bag length so that it fits comfortably on the back. This design is also much lighter than most backback designs, which makes it more suited to those such as myself who don't like to lug tons on my back.

I hope this review helps those who are debating whether to purchase this backpack. Here is what I have in the lower portion of my bag right now (which is all my equipment) compare the dimensions provided to what you own:

Canon Digital Rebel XTi 10.1MP Digital SLR Camera (Black Body Only) (which is attached to:)

Sigma 70-300mm f/4-5.6 DG APO Macro Telephoto Zoom Lens for Canon SLR Cameras According to Sigma's website: Diameter 76.6mm X Length 122mm (3.0 in. X 4.8 in)

Tamron Autofocus 28-75mm f2.8 XR Di LD Aspherical (IF) for Canon SLR Cameras (off the camera) According to Tamron's website: Diameter x Length = ΓΈ73mm x 92mm (2.9 in x 3.6 in)

Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II Camera Lens (off the camera) Dimensions (Diameter x Length)= 41.0mm x 68.2 (1.6" x 2.7")

In the last two bottom compartments (which could hold lenses instead of what I carry) I have:

Four 67mm colored filters each in their own HUGE hard plastic protectors

One camera cap

One back lens cap (for the attached Sigma)

One pocket guide for the Canon XTI (very tiny)

One 67 to 52mm step ring in flexible plastic

How does it fit? Very well. I have NOT manipulated the dividers and they are in their original place. I have room to stack another short lens on top of the Canon 50mm if I ever buy another short lens. It is important to note that the Sigma 70-300 attached to the XTI is a smidge too tall and pushes lightly into the top compartment space (which is separated by material filled with what I guess to be foam padding).

Now I guess it is time for my complaints...

I am a huge fan of the BIG purse movement. I LOVE room for all my personal belongings. I love being able to carry EVERYTHING with me. In my purses I am able to hold a hoodie, six chapsticks, several lip glosses, a few games, checkbook, oversized wallet, snacks, calendar, Tylenol, water bottle, hand wipes, cell phone, two pairs of sunglasses, breath mints, pens, coin purse... oh I am sure I am forgetting things. Nevertheless, I assumed a backpack would be able to fit at LEAST this in the upper portion. I was wrong. I knew the dimensions before buying and tried to simulate the size at home. I figured I would have to cut back on my "essentials" but I didn't realize how much. My compromise? The hoodie will be slipped through the belt buckle and tied in place and I will have to learn to live with a little less when I travel with this backpack.

So with the upper size constraints, why did I buy this pack?

Obviously, (from my purse contents) I needed a daypack. The Tamrac differentiated itself from others in several ways. It was necessary for me to have the water bottle pockets. Cold and wet water bottles do not mix with electronics (cell phones, cameras, etc.) and paper (checkbooks, calendar, etc.) and the mesh outer pockets became a deciding factor. This ruled out the Lowepro Orion Trekker II Camera Backpack (Black). The Tamrac Adventure 9 Photo/Computer Backpack (Grey/Black)was another contender (because of the slightly larger size) but I hated the idea of extra weight due to the notebook pocket I would never use. Additionally, I did not like the way the bottom portion of the Adventure 9 opened. From the photos it seemed like a security risk and had the potential to spill out on to the sidewalk. (Though I could be wrong)

Hope this helps!

For those of you wanting to lug around all of your gear then this bag is not for you.

I on the otherhand don't have a lot (canon 20d, 70-200 lens, 18-55 lens, flash and charger. I can fit all of my stuff in here fine. And if I know I don't want to carry all of my stuff great.

The top is actually bigger than what I thought. For now, I leave my 70-200 lens attached to the camera and put it in the top part. ANd I put my wallet and keys down below instead. This is only because I don't have a smaller zoom lens yet that I want to leave attached which will then store the camera in the bottom section as well as the 70-200 lens in the bottom section. I on'y do this because that's the lens I always use and don't want to attach and detatch on account of dust. So there you have it. It's not HUGE and it really does hold alot.

There are mesh compartments on the side that do hold water bottles. There are mesh compartments in the top that hold my wallet/pda and keys and sunglasses.

The bottom has rigid compartment barriers which I like but it's all about your taste.

Bottom line if you don't have 200 dollars to sink into a bag then this is a great bag. I wanted a bag that I could afford so I could spend more money on a better lens.

Honest reviews on Tamrac 5547 Adventure 7 Photo Backpack (Red/Black)

I have several camera bags and this by far is the move versatile I own and my standard bag for out and about. It easily handles my Nikon D50 with 3 lenses and a flash. I have room for extra batteries etc.

The top compartment was great for carrying my Gortex jacket, sun glasses, power cords and chargers, as well as a baseball cap and more.

It's light enough to carry all day, doesn't make you look too much like a tourist.

If you are considering this you should also look at the Adventure 9 (#5549). I don't have that one yet, but other than the extra "weight", it looks like another alternative.

I bought this by mail order rather than the 5546 model on the basis that it had a larger top compartment which would fit "a light jacket, lunch or other stuff". Don't believe a word of it. Although the bottom compartment is fine and the pack has some cool features, once you squash in a lightweight parka there's not much room for anything else.

If you need a backpack for an all day trip or travel, the Lowepro Rover AW series would be a better choice, even with the strangely excessive waist straps. In the Rover's top compartment you can easliy fit a parka, lunch, thermos, sun block, cell phone, film, maps etc with room to spare. Any extras can go on the outside secured by the bungee straps and protected by the AW cover when raining.

The reason for buying these sorts of packs is threefold to protect your photo equipment, to carry other gear that you might need on a short tramp or trip and to be comfortable doing so.

I like Tamrac gear, but sorry, this is not up to its larger tag. If this 5547 model had more room up top for other gear (gussets or another front pouch?) it would get 4 or 5 stars. It is fine if you know its limitations and want small or if you want very small go for the 5546 model.

I got this for my mom's Nikon S4100 and it was a good fit into the case. If you want it just to fit the camera it is great. It doesn't have ANY room though for anything other than the camera though, so just FYI. But great snug fit.

In looking for a case to protect my camera I found this to be an excellant choice. It is well made, has a magnetic latch, fits perfectly and at a great price. I have an older Nikon case for the earlier version of this camera. It has a pocket for an extra card and battery. It was four times the cost of this one and the only advantage was the pocket and a belt loop. Which, by the way, made it thicker taking up more room. This one my wife carries in her purse. Looking for one that protects the finish and screen, this one fits the bill. Five stars for it filling my needs and if you want the other features, buy one that advertises the options. This in a very nice case.

This is a great basic leather case for the cameras that fit. Well built, durable and stylish, it is exactly what you need if you want to offer your camera basic protection and storage. The people that have ranked it poorly evidently did not read the product description and had unrealistic expectations, like extra storage space, straps, pockets, etc. Look at the picture, check out the dimensions and use common sense people!!

The good: It fits the camera nicely without a lot of extra bulk. It is very soft protective material inside. It utilizes the camera strap instead of having its own.

The bad: It doesn't have the pouch inside for a spare SD card and set of spare batteries like the case for the Canon S5 had. Also, not as big a deal as the pouch is that in addition to the zippers on the sides, it has 2 little magnetic closure things like some cell phone cases have. They never seem to line up correctly so that they engage each other and don't hold well. Nothing but the zippers or a piece of velcro would be better.

All-in-all, I would have given it 5 stars if it had a pouch/pocket either inside or out for 1 spare SD and 1 spare set of AA batteries. Now you will have to carry them separately.

I recently purchased a Canon Powershot SX10IS 10MP Digital Camera with 20x Wide Angle Optical Image Stabilized Zoom from the world's largest electronic retailer. Giddy with anticipation of its arrival, I surveyed all the gotta-have accessories to accompany this particular camera case, mini-tripod, memory card, lens cap tether, and 18-year old lingerie model. The memory card, lens cap tether (Bower CK501 Lens Cap Keeper), and case I ordered almost immediately.

Anyway, I've since received both the camera and the CANON PSC-4000 DELUXE LEATHER CASE. Consistent with other reviews of the latter, it seems generally well-constructed, the leather pleasingly soft and pliable, and with room to cradle the camera snugly. However, I also confirm the observations of fellow users regarding the overall design; the magnetic closures are disconcertingly cheesy, and the lack of secondary pockets for extra batteries, second memory card, and chewing gum for the model is an inconvenience. I'm sending the case back, but not for either of these two reasons.

I'm not sure what I was thinking; it must have been a conceptual block. If used, the case would hang from around my neck by the strap attached to the camera. So, if I took the camera out to actually take a snap, where would I stash the case? Cast aside somewhere, obviously, where it could easily be forgotten while I'm distracted, e.g. during the lingerie photo shoot.

For perhaps less money than I spent on the PSC-4000, I'm sure I can find a sturdy general-duty bag at the local brick-and-mortar camera store that has lots of pockets and can stay tethered to me at all times even while, um, busy.

Like others, it would have been nice to have an extra pocket for batteries. However, it didn't negatively sway my decision about purchasing the bag. Keeping the camera safe was my first priority. I wasn't concerned about having a pocket for an extra memory card. You can by an 8GIG card and shouldn't need another one handy for a picture shoot.

The camera fits snug in the bag. It's a nice fit. I like that the camera's strap is also used for the bag. It's a smart idea in order to keep the bag compact.

I highly suggest purchasing this camera bag. it's a small investment for protecting your camera.

Honest reviews on Canon PSC-4000 PowerShot Deluxe Soft Leather Case (Black)

This case is exactly what I wanted, and a lot of the low ratings here are simply indicative of people who didn't actually want this type of camera case.

I fly a lot and a bulky camera case doesn't happen to fit well inside my laptop roller carry on. I needed the bare minimum case that would cover the camera and not add any bulk so that the camera could fit inside my medium travel purse as I can't have yet another "item" to carry on a plane. This is absolutely perfect for that purpose. Since Canon still hasn't quite figured out the magic behind a lens cap that stays on all the time, I couldn't risk just throwing the camera in naked in case other items in my purse hit up against the lens. This case adds almost no bulk to the camera, is well made, and protects it very well against other items in the same bag.

As a result, no it does not really hold anything extra. It is not a "carrying system" for your camera and accessories. I can fit my USB memory card reader or an SD card loose inside the case, but not extra batteries, for example. Do not buy this case if you want a dedicated travel item for all your photography needs. Read other reviews here carefully, and you'll see that most people who are disappointed in the case expected it to do what it's not designed to do.

This is what you want for a "case within a case" situation, for example if you want to throw your camera in a larger bag or purse. It doesn't even come with its own strap, so that should tell you that it's more of a protective cover than a carrying solution. I am absolutely thrilled with this product. It's a good, snug fit and appears to be high quality material and manufacturing. A few people seemed to mention it didn't fit the SX10/SX20 but that's not my experience at all. It's a perfect, custom fit. I looked everywhere for something like this, finding mostly bags that added bulk, and it's exactly what I needed.

If you fly for business and have to worry about carrying on a laptop and a large camera, then you probably don't want a separate camera carrying case anyway. I also don't want a big carrying case if I'm out touring. Memory cards are large enough now that I don't even come close to filling a 16GB card in a day, and AA batteries are strong enough now that I usually won't have to change batteries in a day of sightseeing, either. So why do I need a bulky carrying case for a bulky camera in addition to whatever purse/day bag I might be carrying? If you have an SX10 or SX20, then you are probably good to go with the memory card and batteries inside the camera, freshly emptied/charged for the day. It's not that difficult to stash a memory card inside the case if you really need a second one, and throw batteries in your purse. For me, the camera is bulky enough for frequent flying/traveling. I didn't want yet another item to complicate matters, so this worked for me. If that's your situation, too, then this is exactly what you want.

UPDATE late 2012: I've since upgraded to the SX40 which is a bigger camera and I'm so disappointed that Canon didn't make another version of this case for the newer, larger models. I'm back to using a bulky bag within my carryon bag, and my search for something as great as this case continues. The PSC-4100 is a completely different kind of case, and according to reviewers, isn't large enough for the SX40 anyway. This case made my life so much easier, and I really miss having it.

I am shocked at the number of reviews slamming this case for not being MORE than it claims to be. It's a CASE not a bag. It is meant to be small, snug and easily portable. It is all of these and more. It is well made, attractive and available here at amazon for $10 shipped.

The facts: The case is designed to be used WITH your camera's strap. A small looped strap is provided for this purpose. The little loop allows you to wear the camera around your neck in the case. You can remove it from the case to take pics and the case will remain attached to the strap. You don't have to ask someone to hold it or, put it downand risk it "walking away".

The camera fits perfectly. You can reverse the lens hood to fit it in the case as well. A simple and common practice.

There is a belt loop as well, which is very convenient. Thereby providing 2 options for carrying.

There is no extra room at all. No extra pockets for memory cards or batteries. Canon doesn't make any claims of additional storage so, I never expected any.

It is very nice looking. The interior is lined with a suede like material which is very gentle on the camera.

It closes with 2 zippers and 2 snaps which work perfectly.

The dimensions are posted wherever it is sold so anyone who expected it to be bigger really should work at being a better consumer. If you research your purchase you are much more likely to be satisfied with what you buy.

I bought this case because I wanted something snug and small. I don't want to put anything else in the case. I have a memory card capable of holding more photos than 2 sets of batteries would allow. I always make sure my batteries are fresh before I head out. It's exactly what I expected it to be. It looks great too. 5 stars

Honest reviews on Tamrac Adventure 74 Digital Photo Backpack (Black)

I used the next smaller version of this bag for years until I got another lens. The smaller (Adventure 71) bag held a Prosumer sized SLR body with attached 18-200 lens, a full sized external flash, a 70-300 lens and several many accessories. I got a new 10-22mm lens and it just wouldn't fit no matter what, so I took a chance and knowing Amazon has a terrific return policy, went with the next size bigger. This bag is awesome! It holds everything mentioned before AND three of my most used lenses. To give a better idea of those before mentioned accessories... Several filters, memory cards, batteries, two remote shutter releases. (one wired, one wireless) a micro-fiber towel, lens cloth, lens tissue, lens brush, magnifying glass, voice recorder/tape, pen/paper, compass, flash diffusers and my hat. Although not made to, it also holds a monopod in one of the external straps (not sure how long the material will last but it has been over a year with no problems. This bag has been virtually everywhere with absolutely no issues. I did use a LowPro 202AW for a while and it's just too big and clumsy, although it does hold more. Never could get used to the single strap, not comfortable at all unless using the waist belt which only makes it tolerable, but then what's the point of having a sling bag. When using the Adventure 74, I wrap the waist belt up and around the two external side straps (one of which also supports the monopod) then take the shoulder straps and tuck them into the very comfortable grab handle on top. That gets rid of any of the loose straps when carrying like luggage and also keeps them off of dirty floors. On short distance walks like going from car and across a parking lot I might use one shoulder strap. Otherwise when walking longer distances it's just a back pack and surprisingly, it's not all that much bigger then the Adventure 71. The bag does have a place for a SMALL monopod or a VERY SMALL tripod on the very outer most part of the pack but it makes it impossible to get into the outside pouch. In my case I carry bigger so what's provided doesn't work. All in all for it's size and build quality, this bag is AWESOME!

This case was a tad tight for my new Fuji, but like most of my reviews I let a few weeks go by so I get some use out of the product before reviewing t so the review will be more accurate.

I get tired of reading reviews where the reviewer's words make it obvious they just ordered the product or just took it out of the box and are for all practical purposes reviewing online stats about it or pure looks rather than actual real world use of it.

As mentioned, when I first tried to fit my camera into this case it was a tight fit and the flap did not want to stay closed.

I found that "working" the leather like I did a baseball mitt when I was a kid did the trick.

For the non baseball players that means flexing the leather case a bunch with and without the cam in it.

Especially, pulling and twisting on the leather flap lightly a bunch of times will break in or stretch the leather so the flap will remain closed.

The leather seems of good quality and I have no complaints about the stitching or magnetic clasp.

Once properly broken in the case fits the camera snugly and the flap will stay securely closed like you would want it to, but also allow you to easily put the camera in and pull it back out for use.

You can attach the case to your belt and as it is just large enough for the camera it protects the camear while remaining comfortable to care.

I found inserting the camera in upside down, lens outward on my right side (I am right handed) worked best for me to bring the camera up in the ready to shoot position.

Of course, it would work well in a purse as well.

I bought this case with the Fuijifilm Finepix Z800Exr and both products were delivered promptly. The camera fits somewhat loosely inside the case as it moves around but there's no danger of it falling out. The case protects the camera from dust, scratches, and minor falls. Anything more than that would damage the camera. There's also a belt clip on the case which comes in handy when you have your hands full.

I got this as a basic case for my Fuji ZD5 FD. Fits like a glove. Well built case but the magnetic latch also keeps the camera quickly accessible without having to fumble with snaps or zippers.

A few reviews seems to suggest it didn't fit their camera, but it's not clear which model they were trying to fit. But for the ZD5, it fits perfectly.

The only feature missing (which would have been simple and unobtrusive) is a space for a spare memory card or two. I dock it one star for that, but otherwise, exactly what I was looking for.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I have the blue pouch. I think it is nice for limited audience; if you have a compact camera, and want compact case with no strap, and don't require masculine color scheme then this is the pouch for you.

On the plus side if you have a device that fits in this pouch then it is sleek enough to probably still fit in your pocket without too much extra bulk with respect to pouch thickness, pouch strap, etc.

I have put my family's Fujifilm XP Shock digital camera in this pouch and it fits fine. The corners of the pouch have started to discolor a bit after one month. A bit pricey at $15, better value below $10.

Always good to have various pouches to protect your valuables. This fits the bill in some situations, 3 stars.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program OK little camera pouch. We use it to hold our Canon Powershot and it fits just fine. The case is not that padded and has no real rigidity so it won't likely protect it from a serious drop. Definitely will keep scratches off the exterior of the camera and may help with those little slips. The opening is a double zipper. I prefer a flip opening that makes it quicker and easier to get the camera out in a hurry. There is no strap on the case so we let the strap that is on the camera hang out. It would be nice if there was a way to easily and neatly tether the camera strap to the case and camera to keep them together so they won't get lost. Unfortunately, there really isn't a good way to do it with this case. It is nice that the case is stain proof but, I wouldn't consider it anymore water or even splash proof then any other case. It is a decent case that is small, lightweight, and fashionable, with emphasis on the "fashionable". I think that is really the most compelling reason to purchase this case. As far as function, there are better options.

I purchased this case for my Canon SX210is. I was linked with accessory products on the bottom of the camera's page. The case is very reasonably priced for the quality of the construction and the leather. The snap closure is secure yet easy to open and close.

What I don't like is that the case is too large for the camera. I don't want the camera to be so tight that it is difficult to remove or place in the case, but the the camera is so loose that rattles around in there. Most people who wear the case on their belt don't really want unnecessary extra bulk. This case could be much better sized for this particular camera.

You can purchase a case of this size that offers spare battery/card storage. Because of the bulk without extra storage I give the PSC-3100 3 stars.

I posted a photo of the PSC-3100 case with the SX210is camera in customer photos.

I ended up purchasing the Lowepro Pods 20 case and I'm very happy with it.

It is a snug fitting case but still easy to get the camera in and out. It also has storage for an extra battery and SD card. The link to the case is below.

According to the Canon website, this case works for PowerShots SX100IS, SX100IS (Black), SX110IS, and SX200IS. I have the 110 camera Canon Powershot SX110IS 9MP Digital Camera with 10x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom (Black), and the fit is snug but good. The quality of the leather case is excellent, with a magnetic clasp, a hole in the top for the camera strap, and a belt loop on the back. The case is only large enough for the camera, so if you need accessories, you'll need to accommodate them separately. Protect your camera with this outstanding bargain.

Good quality case. Fits the SX200IS well. Every once in a while the snap on the flap pops off, but most of the time it's fine. I would buy it again.

Honest reviews on Canon PSC-3100 PowerShot Case for Canon SX200IS Digital Cameras

While I have a larger case to hold all the batteries and extras, I wanted a case that I could put on my belt to keep the camera handy on some days. This is perfect...my camera, the PowerShot SX110 IS, just fits in the case, so it is as small as possible. The case was shipped to my house much quicker than expected, also.

Though some have indicated problems with this case, I found it to be a perfect fit, nicely constructed of good quality materials. Extra benefit is the "belt loop" is a perfect holder for a spare battery I think Canon actually plans it this way, as my case for another Canon works the same way with a smaller battery. Excellent price if this is the kind of case you're looking for, then go for it.

Ordered a two pack of these from the manufacturer. Have to say I'm very disappointed with them and they haven't gotten any use.

First: It looks kinda silly hanging off my bag or belt. The narrow neck kinda makes it hang funny.

Most importantly, the method of attachment is onerous: you are not going to be moving this between different packs or belts. You have to thread the entire body (which is really thick) through the neck every time. It's a pain to do, and feels like it will reduce the stiffness of the neoprene.

The neck is so short, that by the time you thread it through, you have no slack. The body of the bomb can't hang freely, but feels like it's strangled. Won't be able to fit around larger belts or thicker straps.

Now I will not only 'loosing' lens caps and can carry extra batteries and memory cards.

When the Fishbag is fitted to the belt it lays flat against the body! The construction is superb .

A very useful item. I use it in the field for carrying two polarizing filters for lenses of different filter sizes, and/or storing the UV filters when I don't want to use them in certain shots.

Let's just say that I haven't lost a lens cap ever since I bought 4 of these. Before that, I have probably lost around 2 a year. I have at least two on my backpack at all times, right on the ring of the shoulder strap so I always know where my lens caps are. Besides that they can hold my CF cards. I don't use them for filters (because I don't use filters, but I could see that being a great use too). The main thing for me like I mentioned is the caps. These things have already paid for themselves!

I own two of these Fishbombs. I attach one to my waist pack and the other around my belt. In one, I usually carry two 77mm filters on hikes and city walks. In the other I carry my lens caps so I always know where they are. They're super light and they give me quick access. It's pretty much a detachable pocket. Would not recommend for filters larger than 77mm, however. They are simply too snug and you have to get fingerprints on your filters in order to get it out. Anything under 77mm is great though.

This case is almost perfect for my camera. I have a Nikon Coolpix s220 and it fits in the big pocket very well. I can fit an extra memory card, in it's plastic case, and a screen wipe in the outer pocket with plenty of room to spare. Solid construction and good materials on this case. The only thing I would wish for is for it to be a little thinner, so I guess make the second pocket a little smaller. But there are other cases for that I guess. I am a guy, so I have rather large pockets, and it fits in the back ones comfortably most of the time.

I purchased this case to house a JUST MOBILE GUM PRO POWER PACK HIGH CAPACITY 4400 MAH USB. The case is very rugged, all of the stitching is perfect, no issues with the fabric or its construction. It's true it doesn't have o-rings for the clips but I added my own metal ones for $0.10 and they work beautifully (and are better quality than plastic rings).

The large pocket is lined with a soft fleece like material, perfect to keep items scratch free, the front pocket has a mesh retainer for small items.

I initially thought it was expensive for the size but am very impressed with it. It fits the GUM Pro Power Pack, its power cable, an iPhone cable, earbuds, and there is still room for my Jawbone and its cables.

I would definitely purchase other LowePro cases based on this one and its construction.

This camera case is the perfect size for my compact digital camera. I was a bit concerned about the length of the shoulder strap after reading a review saying it was too short. It's perfect for me though, and I carry it slung across the opposite shoulder so it won't slide. The case is well padded. I'm very happy with this product!

Honest reviews on Lowepro Spectrum 10 Camera Case (Black)

The order page says I got this back in March, 2010, so it's going on 2 years of constant usage. I'm getting another one, as the material around the zipper is fraying and getting stuck in the zipper. Otherwise, the case is in very good shape. I use it as an assorted plastic card holder, so it's on my person every day, and generally gets daily zipping and unzipping.

I got this case recently and was a little disappointed for two reasons. One, there are no plastic rings to attach the shoulder straps to for free movement of the strap clip. Instead, a short loop of strap material is where the strap clips attach to. This doesn't allow complete freedom of movement of the strap clip and it binds somewhat. Also, the case was a little defective looking in that the fabric wasn't accurately proportioned-not that big a deal because it's still functional. Funny thing, the cheaper case that Lowe Pro has does have the plastic rings but I didn't want it because it didn't have a nice sized zipper pocket for an extra battery etc. Instead it had velcro. I had a Lowe Pro case before I was very happy with it. It was very durable and I think this one will be too.

This case fits my Canon S95 csamera perfectly. I have a neck strap on the camera and the long case allows the neck strap to fit into the top of the case. The pockets are just right for an extra battery and memory card.

I purchased two different cases for a trip to europe and this one was the one

that was liked by all family memebers and the overall choice to go with us.

It is protective and at the same time low profile so we can still put the camera

in our front pocket. We will be buying a second one for another camera we have.

Perfect fit for my s100. The side pocket is a nice addition. The only thing it's missing in my opinion is the belt clip.

i didn't expect it to look so nice. i thought it was pure black; and when it came and turned out to be designed with an elegant grey, I just loved it.. It also fits the S-100 perfectly.

Nice and simple protection for my camera while it bounces around in my purse. The side pocket will fit cards and an extra battery, but it bulges and pushes against the camera. I will probably just carry extra memory cards in the side. Seems well built.
