This camera case is very well made. 100% genuine leather inside and out. My Panasonic Lumix ZS20 fits inside perfectly.

This appears to be a well made case. It is smooth leather, not as the photo shows it.... but looks fine.

Be aware that the case sent to me (and probably to you!) has a horizontal flap, not the vertical flap as shown in the photo. Not sure why they don't update their photo of this product. But it does the job.

Texure was not the same as in the picture. It came smooth, not nubby. Did not look or smell like leather. Had a chemical kind of smell. Cheap looking. Returned the item.

The case fits my DMC-ZS20 perfectly. A DMC-ZS7 also fits but it's a bit more snug. The construction quality is good. I'm ordering another one for my ZS7. The one I received has a magnetic clasp, not a mechanical snap.

I must say I like this bag a lot. This is the second one I bought I have one and my dad has one now too.

It is functional and not to big.

I posted my first review a week ago, and I must say that I bought this bag for $25.99 and now writing my second review the seller bummed the price to $35.99.

The quality is good of the bag so I would probably still pay the $35.99 for it. :-)

I love this camera bag! The bag that I received as a gift was way too bulky for my liking, so I searched for a smaller one on Amazon and was very happy when I saw this. I made the purchase, but I was wary of the negative reviews. When I opened the package I was VERY pleased! It fit a good amount of accessories (including my camera) in it and I tried it on and it was quite comfortable. I highly recommend this camera carrying bag!

BUILT Cargo Camera Bag- Fiery Orange, Medium
Customer Ratings: 4.5 stars

I've been on a LONG search for the perfect camera bag and have finally found it. I have a Nikon D40 that I carry with me almost every day. This bag fits my camera and an extra lens perfectly. Better yet, I put the camera in with whatever lens I am using and use the extra space as a purse, thus eliminating another bag. I actually bought a zing case for my camera/lens a while ago and I leave that on my camera inside this bag for extra cushioning. There are two downsides to this bag the lack of cushioning and the pre-formed divider that gives you up to 4 slots. While the divider is handy, it is in one piece, thus slightly limiting your options. That is not a deal-breaker by any means, just a big of a surprise.

I originally ordered the large size and found that to be too big for my original intent, which was every day usage. I ordered the medium, which is perfect. I am keeping both, however, as the large will be fabulous for travel. I can fit my camera, all accessories, extra lens, my wallet, glasses, etc. AND my Kindle, so it's ideal for travelling all my essentials in one place! A quest that started out looking for the perfect every day bag ended up with two perfect bags. I highly recommend.

I recently bought my first digital SLR camera, and I spent an equal amount of time agonizing over the perfect bag for it. I have a Built NY lunch bag, which I love, and I was so excited to find that they make a couple camera bags.

I wanted something reasonably priced, stylish but simple, versatile, and roomy enough for my new camera, 1-2 extra lenses, wallet, sunglasses, and phone (to avoid carrying a camera bag and a purse). I also didn't want something that screamed "camera bag." I'll be traveling a lot with this camera, but also just running around town with it. I wanted a bag that could do both. This one fit the bill.

The removable insert is easy to adjust to your needs. The material is sturdy. I love the streamlined look of the bag. It looks like a small messenger bag, and is easy to wear. The black raspberry color is unique, but subtle enough to work with pretty much anything.

shipped my order quickly. I even received it long before the expected arrival date. The bag is perfect for my needs. Great to find a bag like this at such a good price-point!

I am a photographer and an information architect. I'd been using my BUILT laptop bag for about a year and was so excited to see camera bag options. I love the products from this company and was not disappointed when I received the camera bag. It's the best one I've had yet and I've been photographing seriously for about 8 years.

Honest reviews on BUILT Cargo Camera Bag- Fiery Orange, Medium

perfect bag for around town, holds my D40 camera body, sb-400, 18-55, 50-200 and 50mm lens with room for quick cash, cards and phone. All I need for a daily excursion, and the blackberry color doesn't scream>> HEY! HERE'S MY CAMERA! STEAL ME!

Another good thing about this bag is while the sides and interior are neoprene like all the 'built' stuff, there is a slight firmness between the layers and extra padding on the bottom of the bag.

Oh and the strap is plenty long enough for across the body or shorten it for just shoulder wear.

This bag says medium, but I was shocked at its actual size, I can only imagine how big the Large is.

A fine bag for a mFT camera system. There are not very many options out there for the micro four thirds owners yet. Most camera bags are too deep.

I carry my pen e-pl2, oly m14-150, oly m9-18, panasonic 20, and panasonic 14 lenses in it without a problem. I can even squeeze in the oly 14-42 II if I need to. The entire system and bag weigh less than five pounds. Even my m75-300 lens is not too tall for this bag when I need to pack that lens. Of course I have to take out some other lens to make room. (I added a couple of padded velcro dividers from another bag to make more compartments for my camera system.)

The front pocket carries two or three lens hoods, a lens brush, solution, lens wipes. In the inner front compartment I carry a couple of memory cards and two extra batteries.

I chose the light, durable nylon material over the standard cotton. I especially like the rubberized inner bag strap which keeps the bag from slipping off my shoulder.

The bag is sufficiently padded to give adequate protection on day trips. I would not put the bag in the overhead compartment on a plane. I put the entire bag inside of my carry-on luggage.

The zipper keeps the top of the bag secure. The velcro on the outer flap is broad and strong. No pickpocket could open the flap without the velcro noise alerting the owner. Also the appearance of the bag does not emphasize its function as a camera bag, especially if you darken the Domke name strip with a permanent, black marker.

Agree with all the reviews here so far. The dimensions are excellent for a micro 4/3 system. I can fit my Olympus E-PL5 with attached Olympus 14-42mm lens, the Olympus 40-150mm lens, my Canon Vixia HFM300 camcorder and spare camera battery with relative ease using the 2 padded separators.

Padding of the bag should protect the contents from the occasional bumps and knocks from the bottom or sides, but there isn't much at the top or near the zipper ends as the only material there is the nylon cover. If it had padding all-around I would have given this a 5 star rating.

I choose this brand due to the bag design and the specific model due to the nylon material and low-key look.

Best Deals for Domke 700-J5B J-5XB Shoulder and Belt Bag (Black)

I use this bag for my NEX-7 its just the right size for the lenses I carry. The one complaint is that the velcro to keep the cover closed is almost too much and if the cover is fully attached it takes some force to pull the flap open with the bag being so light it can take two hands. Not something I can do in a hurry if your in the middle of taking a photo and have to grab something from the bag.

Honest reviews on Domke 700-J5B J-5XB Shoulder and Belt Bag (Black)

Like all Domke bags this bag is great quality. Small but that is what i wanted. I use it to pack my dslr and video camera. The zipper does not zip up because the lens of the dsltr sticks up too much but the flap folds over it so it works for my needs. The only issue i have is that it does not have any rubber feet on the bottom so i am concerned that over time the bottom might rip as the material is somewhat thin. Should be ok if you are setting it down on carpet or tile but if you are getting this bag to carry it in the streets and will be setting it down on concrete regularly i would be concerned. Other than that it offers nice protection in a compact package.

I bought this bag to use for carrying extra equipment during weddings. I tested it out at a portrait shoot in the woods the other day and was able to fit an extra lens, my 40D back-up body, and my 580 II flash. My only complaint is that the flash is a bit too tall for the bag so I can't zip it shut, but the velcro still connects. There's also space in the front to carry spare CF cards and a cleaning clothe. Good buy if you're looking for something that's not too big and well padded.

This case is well made. The magnetic latch stays in place when intended, but is easy to open when retrieving the camera with one hand. Similarly, the clip easily attaches to the belt and can be removed without a struggle. The clip is not prone to sliding around on the belt or coming off the belt accidentally.

It is a perfect fit for the Pentax T10.

Leica 18722 D-Lux 5 Ever-Ready Case
Customer Ratings: 4 stars
Buy Now
Overall I am very happy with this case, it is very high quality leather, handmade, fits the camera perfectly (you must have the Leica hand grip attached to the camera) and protects the camera well when tossing it in a travel bag. My only dissatisfaction with the case is that the cover is not easily detachable from the case (it folds down, but does not detach easily), which can be a bit awkward if you are trying to take a picture with the case and cover attached, but this just takes some getting used too. If you have a D-LUX 5 and the hand grip attachment and want a Leica brand case then you will be happy with this purchase.

In regards to the other review from J Gaines I believe he did not have the hand grip, which means this case will not fit the camera, so he is correct that the screw casing will not line up and this case would be worthless, only buy this case if you plan on using the Leica hand grip attachment. If you do not want to buy/use the hand grip then Leica offers two other leather cases (case and pouch) that will fit the camera, these two cases only fit the D-LUX 5 if you are not using the hand grip, so it's all a bit confusing and Leica and other vendors don't make this clear or provide much information when buying a case for your camera.

Well,the D-lux 5 ever-ready case is a great fit for my d-lux4 leica with the added grip.The case would not fit the camera without the grip and that is an important trick to know if you are spending a $150+ on such a case.The case is well made and protects the camera well,with good looks and once worn in a little will be even better.So i can say that if you have a d-lux4 or d-lux 5 then this is a good quality item and worth the money.

I have been looking to purchase the D-Lux 5 Ever-Ready Case + Handgrip for over 1 year. Every time I went to a local camera shop, the products were either unavailable or the wait time was more than 4-6 weeks. I placed an order once and it was not fulfilled. The experience left a bad impression.

The product used to be unavailable on Amazon, but I was able to find it a month ago. I quickly purchased the Handgrip which is awesome along with the case for my recent vacation. The products arrived within a week and in perfect condition. It protected my Leica and really made taking pictures very easy. I highly recommend this case along w/ the handgrip for Leica D-Lux 5 owners.

Beautiful, expensive leather case is not designed to fit the D-Lux 5. Bottom case screw will not line up with tripod socket of the camera and there is no way to make it do that short of completely rebuilding the case. This camera really needs a functional ever-ready case and this could have done the job if it had been made right. I just finished packing up this worthless junk and will send it back to Amazon on Monday. Leica once made quality accessory items.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program This is a rugged messenger style bag which has a single strap that goes across your body.

The material is smooth but tough and feels good to the touch.

There is a large central storage pocket which is padded on all sides and can fit a larger SLR such as the Canon 5D Mark II with a 70-200 f2.8 lens attached and still has room for one extra lens and flash and your ipad.

There is a padded pouch (which is removable) which will fit a smaller dSLR like a Rebel XT or similar entry level SLR with lens attached and has a separate lens pocket. This pouch will NOT fit larger SLR bodies.

There are two water bottle holder pockets on the exterior which fit typical water bottles and are a bit tight with gatorade size bottles. There are little holes at the bottom of the water bottle pockets to let out liquids if you spill or have leaky bottles so it doesn't pool in the pockets (a nice touch).

There are plenty of exterior pockets and zippered pockets to hold battery chargers, memory cards, headphones, and lens caps.

There is an easy to reach external pocket to access your cell phone or lens cap.

The zippers are very sturdy and work smoothly.

The shoulder strap is padded and adjustable.

The bag is large enough that it doesn't look like a man purse.

Overall, well made bag with many uses and nice details.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I bought a Case Logic backpack about 6 month ago that fit my 17" laptop and was really impressed with the quality of design, engineering and manufacture. Unfortunately, the Small Cross Body Bag, in my opinion, just doesn't live up to the same quality of design, and I'd never choose it as a walkabout bag. The quality of materials and construction are top notch, but what is missing is the functionality. The strap is set off-angle to allow the case to sit upright against your waist or hip when the strap is worn across your body. The main compartment has an off-angle zipper and contains a medium-small area that is not divided into sections. Instead, there is a separate gray bag that you put your camera into, along with a second small lens and a battery. This smaller bag sits loose inside the larger area, and there is a bit of room for other thin or narrow devices such as a paperback book, spare pair of socks, etc.. I don't like the fact that I have to zip open the case, then open the gray bag to get at my camera. This for me is a deal breaker.

A cross body bag should allow fast access to the camera so as not to miss those wonderful travel shots of opportunity when they suddenly present themselves. The Reflexion bag more or less guarantees that those shots will be lost as you fumble to open 2 cases to get at your camera. It would have been much better to build in a series of dividers that hold the camera, lenses and extras instead of this separate bag. You can choose to not use the gray bag, but then your DSLR isn't secured and can bump around against your other lenses or equipment. The case will fit even a large DSLR (my Canon EOS 5D Mk II fit) but may not work well with extra long zoom lenses. There's a slot on the inside of the main compartment that will fit an iPad.

On the outside of the case there is a large fabric flap of material that secures via 2 snap fasteners, which I found quite tight and difficult to open, and equally difficult to snap closed again. Once the flap is opened there's a zippered pocket where you can stash a few things. The flap is a lot of material that doesn't really provide much functionality, and I question the designer's choice on including it at all.

Based on my earlier experience with Case Logic, I was expecting to be delighted with this camera case. Yes, it should keep your camera safe when you tote it around, but the interior storage spaces are not well-designed for quick and easy access, and that flap of material is really pointless and offers little functionality. For $80 there are many other small cases that will protect your DSLR and fit a couple of lenses, batteries, digital cards that are much better designed.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program Pros:

Very well made:

1.Strong quality fabric

2. heavy duty zippers with pulls

3. rubber material on bottom to help with wear and tear

4. Shoulder belt made from strong but softer material so it doesn't cut into your body padded area for shoulder

5. Nice padding for camera I thought the bag itself was heavy it weighs 1.8 lbs!

6. Densely woven fabric is water resistant, although it doesn't say so. I sprayed the back of it with the kitchen faucet spray feature excess water beaded up and rolled off the fabric did absorb some water but was dry within 5 minutes.

7. Side pockets hold an average size water bottle

8. Multipe pockets: flap pocket semi functional. Zip compartment with pockets under the flap most functional for wallet/keys/phone etc. Small zip pocket in main body maybe for keys? It's a shallow pocket on 2" deep so not quite sure what I'd put in there other than keys.

9. comfortable to wear across body if somewhat heavy with my camera/wallet/keys/phone/ipad/flash/full water bottle it was 7.8 lbs

10. handle on top to carry is nice option

11. ipad with leather cover actually fits into the ipad pocket! the ipad pocket is lightly padded for additional protection

12. separate, padded, removable "pouch" for camera, with drawstring closure and handles. Nice for easy removal if you alternate using as a purse or a camera bag

13. If used as a purse, it's more functional, holding ipad, book, make up bag, plenty of room in the pockets under the flap for wallet, phone, etc. Space available in flap pocket if you want to put your phone there

Cons:

Design flaws:

1. the outer flap has a curved zipper pocket which is unusable if you use this as a camera bag. I could only unzip it a couple inches and barely get 2 fingers in.

2. the snaps on the outer flap were VERY difficult for me to close, I could not do so when wearing the bag, I had to put the bag on the counter and use force

3. The heavy duty zipper for the main compartment is long and the ends extend into the stretch pockets on the sides, so if you do put a water bottle in this portion will extend a few inches in front or in back of the water bottle.

4. Suggested use for side pockets was water bottle and umbrella both do fit nicely but the umbrella extends above the top of the bag which was awkward as it kept hitting my body.

5. my panasonic camera fit into the smaller camera bag, but there was absolutely no room for additional lens as shown in the picture. I could barely squeeze the flash in. My Panasonic is about 5.25" across the back, the camera bag was approx 7" across with the camera in it so you can see there is no room for additional lens. Your camera may be smaller. There is a smaller pocket in the camera 'pouch' for an extra battery.

6. As you know, once you begin filling up all the pockets provided, the pockets become less functional as space is used. For instance IF you used the flap pocket, it's difficult to fill the pocket space under the flap. IF you have your camera in the bag, only the slimmest items will fit into the pockets under the flap and the flap pocket is useless

I would use this bag for work, I felt it was more functional. It could be a purse/briefcase and is not oversized. The bag balances well across body and would be comfortable while waiting for train or bus. I felt the bag was secure, so it would be difficult to rip off your ipad or phone (as opposed to many bags I have seen which gape open) I found it less functional as a camera bag, I would use it only for short photography sessions when I wouldn't want to change lenses etc. I also have a cannon camera backpack, which I think is more functional when I'm planning to be out for most of the day, there's plenty of room for ipad, water, wallets etc.

Oddly, that bag when fully loaded including additional lens AND camera weighed 9 lbs..

Honest reviews on Case Logic FLXM-101 Reflexion DSLR with iPad Small Cross Body Bag

I see people complaining that this bag is too small. I find this odd, because it's called a "Small Cross Body Bag". Also, the dimensions, both inner and outer, are given in the description. And Case Logic makes a slightly larger version of this same bag, the FLXM-102.

While this bag is small, I find that it has plenty of space for its intended purpose.

I'm using this bag with my OM-D E-M1 and a Really Right Stuff base plate, mounted with the 4/3 14-54mm f/2.8-3.5 II attached using an MMF-3 adapter and its hood reversed. Also an adapted legacy Canon 50/1.4 with Bluecell screw-on hood in the smaller side division of the inner bag. The camera just slides in lens down and with the legacy lens, just fills padded inner bag.

Under the inner bag, at the bottom of the outer bag, is my FL-600R Flash laying flat in its bag.

Next to the inner camera bag on the left side, in its own cheap neoprene case, is my 4/3 50-200mm f/2.8-3.5 (non-SWD), which, while small for what it is, is NOT a small lens in absolute terms (it fills the whole height of the bag and about 1/4 of its width). Dropped into the bottom near the 50-200 is the FL-LM2 Flash that came with the E-M1.

On top of all of this, I can put my iPad in the padded side pocket, and cleaning supplies, media, a transfer cable, and extra batteries in other small pockets. I even have a small emergency table-top tripod stuffed in there.

The bag isn't the easiest to get closed with all of this stuff in it. The way Case Logic have made the zipper work, with the end tabs, has advantages and disadvantages. On the positive side, it makes the top of the bag open wide when you need it to, without adding to the bulk of the bag. The downside is that you have to use two hands on each side to close the zipper, one to hold the tab, and the other to close the zipper. If the bag is too full, you have to go back and forth between stuffing things back in the bag and moving the zipper.

That said, opening the bag IS quite easy. Just grab one zipper in each hand and zip outward, and the bag is totally open. Or, if you're doing it one-handed, just pull each zipper tab towards the outside. Because of the way the shoulder strap is attached, the bag stays upright, and you won't topple your gear out onto the ground.

Overall, I'm quite happy. I'm using every cubic millimeter of this bag, which means I'm carrying no more bulk than I need to. Once I get my 12-40mm f/2.8 Pro lens, which is smaller than the 14-54, I expect it will be a little less tight in there, which will help a touch, though it's really not a problem right now and well worth it for the compactness of the overall package.

I've been searching everywhere for the perfect camera bag for my OMD EM1. I didn't want something bulky but big enough to hold my camera and 3 lenses. I didn't have any issues with the zippers or snaps like some of the other reviewers. It wears like a hybrid sling and messenger.

Pro:

Perfect size for my setup. Em1 body. 12-40mm lens. Panaleica 25mm. And possibly a 75mm or 150mm prime later.

Rugged but sophisticated looking. I wanted something that's durable but classy enough that I can take anywhere. I bought the grey one and it seems like it matches my slacks.

Holds an iPad.

Room for other accessories. I have the kit flash. The FL300R flash. Two extra batteries. Extra memory card. Lenspen and lens cloth. Caps.

Can hold water bottle or small umbrella. I always end up carrying my gf's umbrella even though I don't ever use one myself.

Large opening that stays open! It's easy to take the camera in and out.

Seems water resistant and rubberized bottom protects from tears.

Cons

I don't really care for the removeable camera insert. I rather it was 3 adjustable sections on the inside. I found a work a round by folding down the sleeve/draw strings of the insert so that it's not in the way. The third lens will just be in its own separate pouch beside that.

On the inside of the camera insert is a little sleeve. I find that this gets in the way a bit when you're trying to put the camera in. Especially of you have a flower hood attached.

I wish the connecting buckles were metal instead of plastic.

Kind of heavy for its size but I guess that's the trade off for the materials used.

To conclude, the cons are just minor quibbles on an otherwise perfect camera bag. It's incredibly hard to find a good bag for mirrorless cameras that are not overized or too minimalist. I also don't want to be embarrass every time I go out with my camera. Before this I tried the Crumpler Sebang Outpost. Small was too small and large was too large. I'm glad this one was just right and cheaper too!

The best and cheapest case! It is better than what I was expecting, it fits perfectly my nikon d5100 with lens and there is still a lot of room to put accessories and stuff. A really good case especially for the price it been sold

Good case, but advertised as 6x6x6 and too snug for my sub6x6x6 T3i with grip and Tamron 18-270. Oops!

I purchased this for use on an upcoming trip. Needed something that was airline carry-on safe, but would still hold the equipment I needed to bring. The description said I could put a DSLR with or without battery grip and a 70-200 attached. Not going to happen. There is not nearly enough height (depth) to the bag to hold a camera with battery grip.... then trying to insert a laptop with the camera way too tight; I was fearful for the laptop with the pressure on it.

Other than that, when I put a non-grip DSLR in, all I could use was the 24-70; a 70-200 still wouldn't fit. It could be stored in the compartment on the side, but that doesn't have any adjustable dividers to hold it in place. There is not attachment area.... I guess some duck tape would do the trick.

Well, it is being returned .... had to fork out an extra $100 to get one that really would do what it said.

Still, a nice bag overall.

A great gear backpack that packs in my Nikon D60 with 55-200mm lens and battery grip attached, Nikon SB-600 Flash, Nikkor Lens 18-55mm and 50mm, Giottos Air Blaster, other accessories like filters, batteries, charger, Maglite, grey card, SD cards, BlackRapid Strap Sport, cables and Acer Aspire One netbook with more room to spare. Also attached outside the bag is my Manfrotto MK394-PQ tripod. It's made out of durable ballistic nylon material. Comfortable straps.

But why only four stars? It's because, unlike other camera bags, some dividers are fixed. So you can't re-calibrate dividers freely according to your needs. The bag has no quick access for your camera, you have to open the entire backside to access your camera unless you put your camera with lens in the top compartment with easy access which is a tight squeeze.

Nevertheless, this bag is worth recommending to a friend looking for a durable camera bag!

I just got my bag a day early and it is great. It was a tight squeeze for my tripod on the inside. Everything else fitted great: my Canon T1i, my external flash, my telephoto lens, my portfolio and my notebook.

The interchangeable Velcro parts were a nice touch.

It is roomy, handsome and feels good on my back.

I would recommend this to my friends.

Honest reviews on Manfrotto MB SB390-5BB VELOCE V Backpack -Black

Pros: Plenty of room for a DSLR camera with a couple of lenses and accessories such as Laptop, Battery charger, microphone, led light and mini tripod. Adjustable compartments attached with Velcro.

Cons: the bottom part do not have any rubber or reinforcement material, so when you place it on the floor is suitable to wear and tear. The straps are not as ergonomic enough. Side pockets too small

I rec'd this bag today, but it is not the same as pictured nor is it the same as the ones I saw in best buy or in camera shops. Instead of having all the fabric in the front that make up the "M"' , it is just flat surface and the "m" part is just a padded surface with some stitches outlining it.

This matches my light blue Canon Powershot camera perfectly. I bought my camera because I wanted something small that could easily fit in my pocket and didn't want a big bulky case to get in the way. This camera cover is perfect. I didn't need something to store extra batteries or sd cards, just something to protect the outside from getting scratched, although there is probably enough stretch to this case that I could squeeze those in if desired. My camera fits into it perfectly without the cover being being tight. Great little case, very pretty color.

If you're looking for a case that provides maximum protection for your pocket camera, or has room for accessories, this isn't the case for you. If you're looking for a case that fits the camera like a glove, and is easy to carry around, than the Lowepro Varia fits the bill. Made of neoprene fabric, the Varia is thin and lightweight. It is also smaller than expected, and my Panasonic TZ series camera barely squeezes into it. But the Varia stretches, and I can get the camera into it. Protection is minimal. It will protect from scratches and minor bumps only, but that is exactly what I bought it for. I can still put the camera in my pocket with it in the case. If your camera is small enough, you can probably squeeze an extra memory card or battery in the case too, but don't expect it to fit much at all. For around $10, I'm happy with the Lowepro Varia. It makes carrying my camera around easy, without a bulky case, and provides a little bit of protection.

This is a cute but very small case. The fabric is spongy, providing a cushion against the camera being knocked around. Too small for my Nikon Coolpix.

Honest reviews on Lowepro Varia 10 Camera Case - Teal

Bought this for my digital camcorder and although the

item itself is VERY well made, arrived when promised

etc., it does not fit my camcorder as the item was

described it would. The actual size of this would fit

a cell phone, that's about it. We have several (4) hand

held camera products and none of them will fit this

case. Will keep as the price was awesome and don't want

to spend the ship charge to send back. Will use for cell

phone when necessary.

I like this case and so, since I received another camera (yes I am in need of two) and I like this case because I can keep several other small items in it like a reader, extra batteries and even a dollar or two. This was a good buy.
