Fits nicely on a D7000 with 18-200MM lens with the lens hood and black rapid strap attached. Nice alternative to carrying a bulkier camera bag.

This is actually a very nice product. It indicates that it fits the D7100 but unfortunately it does not. I would be delighted to use the product but it will just not fit the D7100...

Honest reviews on OP/TECH USA 7401224 Soft Pouch - Digital D-Midsize Zoom, Neoprene

Great pouch to hold my Canon Rebel T3i. I was a bit hesitant at first when buying it but it turned out to be a useful and convenient pouch to carry along instead of the huge regular dslr bags. I use it to hold my 18-135mm lens which the length is kind of shorter than my telephoto lens but either way i can use it for both lenses. I'm really satisfied with the product and highly recommend it.

I purchased to go with a Sony A33 and the 18-250 lens. Fits perfect over the lens, even with the sunshade attached. Well designed, easy to use, perfect for traveling. I lost the little piece that attaches the case to the camera and customer service immediately sent me another one. Great price and great fit. Exactly what I wanted.

Precision Design Digital Camera Padded Carrying Case for Fuji Digital Cameras
Customer Ratings: 4.5 stars

Quality, construction and price are all good. However, this puppy is rather tiny. Beyond a digital camera, usb cord, and maybe 4 extra AA batteries you're not going to be able to cram in anything else. Although I haven't experienced it yet a 5 foot drop onto cement would not protect the contents. Hindsight being 20/20 I should've put my 10 bucks towards a larger camera case/backpack.

Excellent product. Just the right size case for my Nikon Coolpix P-80 camera plus charger cable, hook-up cables, spare battery, extra SD memory cards, etc. Has sholder strap and handle on top of case. Good quality construction. Good padding. Good price at Amazon.com ($10)

The case's compact and light weight design is perfect for anyone who just wants a simple carrying case. I loved the adjustable divider inside and the shoulder starp was nice too.

Though I must say it looks some what like a lunch box you would give your kids. And to me, closing it can be difficult.

Other than those thing this is a perfectly priced carrying case.

I bought this case for my brand new Lumix DMC-FH25. The case is really too tight (Vertically) for the camera. It will put undue pressure on the lens in front, and the LCD in back. Since the padding is hard, the pressure on lens and LCD is severe. Also, because the case is so tight, there is no room for a memory card and extra battery.

Tamrac 5603 System 3 Camera Bag (Black) Reviews

Tamrac 5603 System 3 Camera Bag

The Tamrac System 3 (and other "System") bags are very well crafted camera bags. The bag has several very attractive features.

--Handles and straps are strong and very comfortable.

--Access to bag is easy, zippers very smooth, clips easy to manage.

--Main body of bag can be reconfigured with velcro separators.

--Surprisingly high capacity (I carry an SLR body with standard lens, a 75-300 zoom, spare short focal length lens, hot shoe full flash and digital 6x zoom camera all in central pocket)

--several additional useful separators, film holders, documentation, places for lens cleaner, paper or cloths)

--durable outer shell that can take some abuse

All of this is contained in what appears from the outside to be a very small bag that easily stores for travel. Perhaps most importantly the separators, outer shell, and body construction real do appear to protect your equipment (yes I am ashamed to admit that I have had my fully loaded bag drop off of tables and down steps). Don't buy more bag than you need. If you've got a reasonable amount of gear this bag probably can handle it.

The Tamrac System 3 camera bag is perfect for SLR owners who also have one or two compact lenses (e.g., the typical 28-200mm or 70-300mm zoom lens) in addition to the lens attached to the camera, plus a small external flash. The bag is small compared to other SLR gadget bags, but the inside can be partitioned in flexible ways. It's also well-padded, both inside and outside. It also has lining pockets for things like USB cables, camera body cap, lens caps, filters, etc. At the front, there's a compartment for miscellaneous items such as film, memory cards, pens, lens cleaning paper, etc. Hidden behind this is a pull-out pouch for batteries and memory cards, plus an ID tag (kinda hard to write on, though). You can also use the compartment this pouch is in to store film, etc, although stuff might fall out if you are not careful. At the back is another compartment, which I use to store the manual of my Nikon D70.

As you can see, this "small" bag is very versatile. In addition, you can get Tamrac's add-on pouches and pockets to attach to the strap or the sides of the bag, for additional storage.

I looked at many bags before settling on this one. It's compact and weighs about 1.5 pounds, so it's material enough to withstand tough conditions yet light enough for shoulder-use. As I mentioned it's also well padded and can accommodate extensions. If you are the typical SLR enthusiast with a total of 2-3 compact lenses and/or a small flash unit, you'll find this bag a very good fit for your needs.

Best Deals for Tamrac 5603 System 3 Camera Bag (Black)

After researching a number of bags for my new digital SLR camera, I thought this bag had the best combination of price, size, and features. I'm very happy with my selection. I've never owned a Tamrac bag that I didn't feel was quality made. The MAS (Modular Accessory System) and SAS (Strap Accessory System) are quite well thought out and the available accessories are very economical compared to other brands. The bag has a small footprint, but had plenty of room for my new camera (w/lens), flash, extra 28-300mm lens and all my other necessary items. Other bags seemed to lack the perfect combination of WxHxD like this bag. It would be hard to find camera/lens cominations that wouldn't fit in this bag. Plus, extra battery sets and memory cards have predesigned pockets so everything is quick and easy to find ... everything in it's place with quick, easy access.

The only things I could find that could be improved was 1) Heftier hook/loop closier for the flap and 2) more hook/loop material to enable more compartmental options inside the bag. But, these are very small nits compared to the overal quality of this bag.

Honest reviews on Tamrac 5603 System 3 Camera Bag (Black)

I purchased this Tamrac 5603 System 3 Bag in black yesterday.

The first impression was really good (outside):

Nice black-color

looks and feels really weather-resistant (haven't tried it out yet)

Sides soft and big enough, so your equipment stays secure.

Good carry-around size

Not too heavy itself

Inside:

It is a bit smaller than I expected and I needed to figure out, how to "set it up"

There is a wall-system inside which you can setup how you like/prefer it, depending on your stuff

The walls are a little too soft in my oppinion, but doesnt do any bad at all

Enough space for the small parts like memory-cards, cables, batteries etc

What I carry in it:

Canon Rebel XTi (fits good)

Canon 50mm f/1.4

Canon 28-105mm USM

Canon 70-200mm f/4 L

Canon 430ex Speedlight

How good does the stuff fit?:

I'd say OK...a little too tight though...

The Rebel-Body is not too big, definitely space for a bigger body!

When the 70-200m L lens is mounted, the space to the sides is too small for putting the other lenses in

upright position.

Keep the camera mounted with a smaller zoom-lens (like the 28-105mm) and you'll have enough space to

carry two extra lenses (even bigger ones up to 200mm L ) in upright position.

The external flash easily fits into it (pretty flat in upright position)

Overall it is a good bag and I feel much better carrying around expensive equipment with a bag I feel safe with....

The capacity-limit is pretty much reached now, so If you read this and there is ANY thinking about "might my stuff fit in?" or "I could get another lens or piece of equipment?"....GET THIS BAG ONE SIZE BIGGER!

For all the others: It's a nice bag, that you totally can't go wrong with...

Have fun with it! ;)

Very nice little piece. Reasonable price. Fits the Bose mini boom box perfectly as someone had kindly noted in a review for that device. Two internal movable partitions, which I laid out to the side for more padding for the mini Bose. Carrying strap.

But shipped from Israel! The "Shaked Store". Took 12 days to arrive, a little more than the 2 days I expected. Probably didn't read the fine print. Surprising you can ship an inexpensive thing 1/2 way across the world (~7K miles from there to here!) and still make a profit. Bar Refaeli = good Israeli export. Delay in arrival from store in Israel = not so much. You know we're all about instant gratification in Amazon Prime world.

This is a great camera case! I got it to go with the Canon G12 10 MP Digital Camera with 5x Optical Image Stabilized Zoom and 2.8 Inch Vari-Angle LCD and it looks great! Very much a throw-back vintage style with a screw in bottom that goes into your camera so it actually stays on when you are shooting. Soft leather, good long strap to put across your body and nice unisex color. High quality item I would def recommend (it actually looks and feels just like a case I inherited from the 60's)

This is a substancial case which will protect your camera. It appears to be genuine leather, very attractive, and has a retro look. It consists to two components. One component, in which the camera "sits," attaches to the camera via the tripod mount. The other component attaches to the first by means of metal snaps on both right and left sides. Thus, this second component is designed to flip back and hang down under the camera out of the way when the camera is in use. The PROBLEM, with mine at least, is that these two snaps are too loose to adequately hold the movable component in place when the camera is in use. It falls off and one has to figure out what to do with it while taking pictures. Even tho I have given this case 4 stars, I really would like to give it 3 1/2. Were it not for this flaw, this would be a 5+.

Honest reviews on Cosmos Brown Leather Case Cover Bag for Canon Powershot G12 G-12

It is a stylish and quality leather case but I find it a little annoying having to remove the bottom half every time I want to access the side ports or battery/card compartment. I also noticed that the gobi flexible stand doesn't easily screw into the bottom. Not sure I would recommend this case if you really use the camera. 3 stars because it is a nice product but it does tend to get in the way.

WOW!! was the word that came out of my mouth when I first saw this out of the package. Simulated or not, it serve the purpose & I didnt expect it to have the logo but it's a plus for me. Love the color. The snaps on the sides side were made loose for the users to be able to undo it easily so camera won't fly off the hands. Cheaper than the other sellers but it doesnt mean he set aside the quality. Thank you for this good product. It's brand new, well packed & fast delivery.

this is really a nice bag. The material, feel (inside and out), degree of padding, and size are just right for dx equipment. I am nearly always willing to pay more for craftsmanship and this bag at least gives the feel and look of craftsmanship. Leather side straps are a nice detail. The snaps, of course, don't always fall perfectly into place but they are magnetic enough and, with a little scooting, seat with a nice click. Then the package is secure enough to carry with a side handle if you wanted to. Just nice design. no regrets.

The bag is about 10.5" x 7" x 4".

I searched online for months looking for the perfect camera bag. I found plenty of stylish bags that didn't scream "I HAVE A VERY EXPENSIVE CAMERA INSIDE" but they were overpriced and mostly faux leather (leaving me wonder... why the hefty pricetag??). So, instead of spending over $200 for a 'bag that doesn't look like a camera bag' that I didn't like as much as the bags I already owned, I purchased this little gem. It has a nice, quality look and feel, and fits perfectly into most of my shoulder bagsand diaper bags too. In the end, this was the best option for me since I get a really cool, functional little bag that protects my DSLR and 2 lenses (and miscelleneous other itemsit has 2 front pockets, 2 side pockets, and one large pocket on the back side!) and I spent a fraction of what I initially thought I'd spend. The best part is that I get to keep on using the bags I already own and love and know that my camera is protected. I would definitely recommend this camera bag. Love it!!

I've been looking for the perfect camera bag for months and failed. Most were too big, too heavy or too ugly. Finally, I decided to give this insert a try, and I LOVE it! Now my own fab handbags are the perfect camera bags. Easy to switch bags without having to reassemble all your gear. And easy to just pull it out and leave it home, too.

I was a little hesitant about the price, but it is definitely worth it. The bag itself is high quality. The inserts are felt and the outside is a nice canvas with leather straps. I love that the insert is squishy enough that it can mold to your handbag and your body, instead of the ultra stiff and bulky inserts I found elsewhere. Inside, it easily fits my D7000 DSLR with a small lens and hood attached, another larger lens or flash, plus a camera strap. And I especially love that ONA thought to put so many pockets on the outside ... five! In those, I stuck a polarizing filter, spare batteries, a lens cap and memory cards, and it still didn't feel bulky. The pockets would fit a SmartPhone as well. This insert will not fit in a small handbag, obviously, but it should fit in many medium and large bags. It also won't fit a 9" or 10" lens, but you already knew that, :)

I have zero complaints and nothing but love for this insert bag. If I were to suggest an improvement, it would be nice if the top flap were detachable. It would eliminate a small amount of unnecessary bulk.

Really, don't waste money on pricey camera handbags like I did. Just buy this insert and go. Great job on the product, ONA, and thanks to Adorama Camera for prompt shipping.

Honest reviews on ONA The Roma Camera Insert and Bag Organizer - Black

It's a high quality and stylish dslr insert. The color of the insert is not actually grey like in the photo, it's black (for anyone who cares, I don't really mind). It has a soft lining on the inside, but there is not really any padding. I was expecting a thick cushion all around, but it's quite thin and not really padded. There is also an adjustable divider for when you want to carry around an extra lens. It is able to fit the camera body+lens and an additional lens.

Overall, it's pretty good. I'm a little disappointed about the lack of padding, but I'm going to do without it and just keep the insert.

I purchased this to help protect my new Canon G1x; it does a great job of it, but is a little bulky to fit inside my laptop bag. It has room for one or two small accessories, and has straps/clips to attach it to other luggage and straps, perhaps even a belt if desired. Nice product for up to a medium-sized camera.

Best Deals for Crumpler Pleasure Dome Camera Bag (S) PD1001-B00G40 - Black

I just bought an E-PM2 and needed a bag. Part of the reason I bought the PEN was its small size, and I didn't want to get stuck with a large bag. The Crumpler pleasure Dome (S) is just the right size to fit the E-PM2, 14-42 lens and folded neck strap. You might be able to slip in the flash, but I haven't tried it myself. It will likely fit a pancake prime too.

Honest reviews on Crumpler Pleasure Dome Camera Bag (S) PD1001-B00G40 - Black

I purchased this little bag to fit a Panasonic FZ200 (identical to the Leica VLUX4). I was nervous, not knowing if it would fit. Well I'm happy to say, it fits (like a glove)... literally, like a glove. The bag is small, but it works. I place the camera into the bag with the longish lens end of the camera situated at the top widest part of the bag, and it fits with no extra wiggle room. And that's perfect for me. I have a big bag for my Nikon, I wanted something small for this compact camera. Crumpler makes great bags, my wife has enjoyed a Crumpler for her DSLR for a few years. I envision enjoying this bag for years too. This bag makes the great Panasonic/Leica camera even more of a joy to behold. Crumpler bags are cool and they're high quality. Thanks Crumpler!

I was having trouble finding a smaller camera bag for my larger compact camera. I didn't want a bigger bag since that was the reason I got rid of my DSLR in the first place...and this was the perfect middle ground. Because it's so nice and roomy, it can accommodate weirdly shaped cameras. I store my Leica with the viewfinder attached and it fits perfect, along with a little card case for essentials when I want to bring my camera on the go.

The quality was very nice even though I've never heard of Crumpler. I went with black and red, which happen to go nicely with the red dot :)

Customer Ratings: 4.5 stars

I'm a female photographer, with kids, always looking for that perfect camera bag. I have a Crumpler bag that I will say is great quality and I've been very happy with it, but I wanted something bigger and more stylish. There aren't a lot of options in this arena, but more and more these days. I have a Nikon D900 and I like to carry around the body with a 50mm lens attached and an additional 24-75 lens, my SB900, the wires, batteries, cleaners and memory cards and still have room for wallet, phone, chapstickand my iPad occassionally. I wanted the bag to look like a purse, not a camera bag and to have the slouchy-body-hugging style such that I can carry it messenger style while I shoot. This bag has all that! It is nicely padded, plenty of room without being huge to carry everything I need and then some. Amazingly it's very light and very easy to carry loaded up. It certainly looks like a purse rather than a camera bag. Lots of little pockets and spots to stash items, little feet on the bottom so that it can stand on it's own. Two handles, one for messenger and one for over the shoulder, a shoulder pad (could be a bit softer), the top either zips or closes with a magnet. Very thoughtfully designed bag!!! My only negative is the fake leather. It's not even a fake leather that I'd consider top of the linefeels a bit stiff, not really soft. The hardware is very nice quality on the pulls and buckles and rivetsvery strong, substantial feel to it. The stitching is very nice, I just can't get past the fake leather quality for the cost of the bag. I'd even be willing to pay a bit more for an all leather bag or I'd rather have the bag built in a quality canvas type or nylon material (think Kate Spade or Prada bags that are canvas or nylon with leather handles). Perhaps it is me being picky and snooty about the fake leather, but it just seems to cheapen the bag. Still, the functional aspect is amazingso I'm not sure that I regret the purchase and I do still use the bag. My advice, if you have to save up and the cost is a real stretch to youdon't buy the bag. The fake leather isn't worth the cost. If you can afford it and need a stylish, functional bag and you can get over the fake leather aspect (I mean, it does wipe clean nicely and it's very functional) then go for it. Note to Kelly Mooregreat ideas on the layout of the bag, but please, please, pleasefind a better quality fake leather, choose a different material (like a canvas or nylon) or just start making leather ones for a $100 more.

I am planning a month-long trip to Europe in the fall. A big part of that trip will be taking photos, so I really wanted to find a great bag. I have had two other camera bags in the past (a tamrac that came with my camera and the camera day pack from Photojojo). I never used the tamrac. It was just much too small. It only held my camera with a lens attached and a few filters. It didn't even have enough room for a wallet. I was hoping the day pack would be better. It's definitely bigger than the tamrac and holds my camera plus an additional lens, but then it only had one small pocket for all my extras (wallet, cell, keys, chapstick, excedrin), so I found myself rarely using it. I ended up just using a bigger bag that wasn't a camera bag. But for traveling, I didn't feel that it had enough protection for my camera. After hours and hours of reading reviews and weighing the pros and cons, I decided to get the Kelly Moore 2 Sues bag. I have never spent this much on a bag before, but I felt like it was worth it to get exactly what I wanted. I ended up ordering it directly from Kelly Moore's site because I couldn't find the color I wanted on Amazon (I got indigo).

I was looking for a bag that didn't look like a camera bag. I didn't want to advertise my gear, and I also wanted it to be fashionable. I love the looks of the 2 Sues. And it's super comfortable to wear. I often switch between the messenger-style across the chest and the shoulder strap. When the bag is loaded up, I find that the shoulder strap actually gives me more support. It has plenty of room for my camera and two extra lenses, but I usually just bring one extra and save the space for other things (water bottle, snacks, a book, etc.). I love the back zipped pocket. I feel pretty secure putting my wallet there. And the pockets on the front are perfect for cell phone, point and shoot, chapstick, headphones, etc. The only problem I have found with the bag so far is the slots for credit cards in the flap. I used them on my first trip with the bag, and ended up losing my driver's license from it and missed my flight. They are rather shallow and don't provide enough coverage for the cards to stay put. I haven't tried using the memory card slots, yet, but they look like they will be better. I've used the bag on two trips over the past two months, though, and I think it will be perfect for my big trip in the fall. Originally I thought about using it as an everyday bag, too, but for me personally, I feel like it's a little too big for that.

Best Deals for Kelly Moore Bag Women's Sues

This bag is just what I needed: a camera bag that doesn't look like a camera bag and can carry my camera, telephoto lens, my little video cameras plus my wallet and cosmetic bag. Lots of other spots for pens, an iPad if you have one, plus the pouch for my CF cards and credit cards. The top zips which is a huge must for me. Removable straps are also terrific and the shoulder strap is very comfortable even when carrying a ton of gear.

The only downside is that the pouch for the CF cards isn't as secured as I'd like but that is minor when compared to the huge number of plusses this bag has.

Another plus, the raspberry red color is fabulous. I've received so many compliments on it from people who didn't even realize it was a camera bag. Would definitely consider buying another Kelly Moore bag.

1 the zipper on the back catches the corners of cards. rips and bends the cards

2 no good place for a water bottle. which is a super must have on shoots.

Stylish as a camera bag but I also have started using it as a regular purse. Love all the pockets. Well made.

I ordered this 3 months ago and am really happy with it; not only does it look chic but really protects my camera (I dropped it last night and not a single scratch on it!).

It tends to feel bulky from time to time and it is kind of a hassle having to take it off when I'm about to shoot on a tripod, but, as I mentioned, I appreciate the peace of mind it gives me knowing my camera will be pretty much protected from any accidents. I still have my doubts about this being real leather, but even if it isn't it's still a good quality product.

This case was perfect for my needs. It doesn't hold anything but the camera, but it protects the camera when in crowds and makes picture taking easily accessible. The top cover (lens cover) can snap all the way off for easier use. It does not come with a strap, although there is a place to attach one, I just use the strap on my camera. It fits my D3200 with 55mm lens and cap, and my 200mm lens fits as long as the lens cap is off.

Very tough and well made. The cubed foam facilitates customizing to your equipment.

In my case the purpose is to safely transport a camera body, extra lenses and various small accessories. It's just exactly the right size for taking the lenses I want to take while traveling, though not for every lens I will ever own of course.

There's a layer of egg crate foam lining the lid, a flat layer of foam in the bottom, and a chunk of cubed foam to fill the space in between. The cubed foam is somewhat compressed when fitted inside the case, so keep in mind that any space you carve out while the foam is removed from the case will be less when the foam is in the case.

Getting everything to fit required some thought and planning before starting to carve out the foam. I can turn my Olympus E-PL2 on end in a space carved all the way through the cubed foam, and it will fit between the layers of foam in the lid and bottom. For the lenses and adapter I carved properly-shaped cavities about halfway through the cubed foam. For the microphone and various small items I carved out the cubed foam all the way through to make cubbyholes.

I was able to safely install the E-PL2 with the 14-42mm lens attached, an Olympus Digital 70-300mm (140-600mm equivalent for Three Fourths) with hood, the MMF-2 adapter, a Panasonic 20mm pancake, a spare battery, a SEMA stereo microphone and adapter, and a remote shutter release.

The cubed foam is a bit messy while carving, and you definitely need to have patience to contour it to your items, especially if you want to fit items compactly. But when you're done you have a very rugged and safe transport for your items.

We decided to go with this case for a special project where we needed a hard protective case that we could install an inside face plate for an electronic controller. These cases are pre-designed with an inner lip that is designed for mounting a panel. The lip even has screw holes so installation of our control panel is very easy. We tried other well-known cases but we had to secure the faceplate with screws or rivets coming in from the side of the case, compromising its water resistance. These Nanuk cases are built extremely well (even better in our opinion than the "p" brand), the handle is more robust, and the double-action side latches give it the more futuristic look that we desired. Also you can open the latches and fold them all the way open and they "lock" out of the way until you release them. Nice feature if you want the latches to stay out of your way, which we did.

Well-priced, well-built, well-designed and the color options are great.

Note that this case does NOT come with the foam inserts, so if you're expecting those you will need to choose a different part number that has the foam.

After twenty years of being a photographer I realized now I can never have enough cases, bags, etc. After seeing a companion travel with a case like this I was able to get one of my own and I have to say it has me rethinking how I pack and travel. This case is super-solid, like a hard case is, but is also lockable and watertight, two things that come into play, often times, when you least expect it. The foam inside is partially pre-cut allowing you to map out exactly how to fit your delicate and beloved equipment. I also like the fact the hinges on the side require you to press a secondary button before they release, almost like a two-part hinge release on the back of your camera. After using this small case I've decided to look for something larger in the same line. Last week I watched an irate airline passenger pull down a fellow traveler's bag, four or five feet to the airplane floor, something I seem to be seeing more and more these days. Had that been my bag, full of equipment, I'd probably still be at the airport sobbing. Overall, a great case, and something I'll be putting to good use. I recently picked up a Leica M9 and this case will be perfect for this.

well made. sturdy construction. Nice latches that lock automatically. solid handle. I have worked with both Pelican and Nanuk cases and they are comparable in quality.

Best price for a Nanuk case, so good I bought two and gave one to my brother. It does what it needs to do, keeps your investment safe. Big plus on the one hand opening compared to having both of your hands to open a Pelican case. The quality is much better than a Pelican.
