This is a great cover. Fit my X10 perfectly. Quick to open and close. Great price. The case does appear to be real leather with the inside soft fabric lined. it is held in place when open. It is east to remove to access the battery and memory card. All the controls are accessible. It is a great case, protects the camera and looks great.

This case was bought to protect the camera from dings and scrapes of usual use or transporting in my back pack. There were several cases to choose from varying in color and price. I ordered this case because of description, its leather and its price. The camera easily goes into the case, its well protected, it looks very good, adding to the camera itself. Its not bulky and does not add any heftiness to the camera because I usually carry it in a cargo pocket. The camera stays in case when open, and has a strap which at this time I do not use. The strap tends to secure the camera in case by attaching to the stap rings on the camera. If I were to upgrade this case I would add a screw that would go through the case and to the tripod mount screw.

Overall it does its job, looks great and protects the camera.....two thumbs up

Case fits well and allows use of camera while in case. The snap buttons are a bit shoddy and could use some improvement as they release too easily for my taste. Decent case for the money.

This is a nice case for the money. Better than I expected considering it's 1/4 the price of the OEM case. The workmanship is very good and it fits the camera well. The bottom section alone makes for a great half case. The included strap is also well made, but do not use it as I have an OP/TECH 2201021 neck strap, which works perfectly with this case. My only regret is not getting the light brown version for that ultra-retro look, although black is a little less conspicuous out in public. Then again at this price, I just might order a light brown one too. A great value, which I highly recommend.

Buy ZAGG invisibleSHIELD for Nikon D40x (Screen)

Customer Ratings:

Purchased this Invisibleshield for the rear screen on my Nikon D40X. Easiest screen shield to apply that I have ever found. It is very clear, durable in 2 months of heavy use, and price was reasonable. My wife is going to get an Invisibleshield for her Kindle 2, available on Amazon.

I read some other reviews that say the Invisibleshield was hard to apply, stretched, etc. Sure wasn't the case with what I got. Maybe it has changed, but it was a snap to apply, didn't stretch at all when I lifted it a bit to reposition it. The spray is really almost all water, and had little odor. The instructions were brief and uncomplicated, but you do need to follow them and use good sense. Don't try to apply it during a sandstorm or next to a kitty litter box, and wash and dry your hands.

I have encountered problems with other brands! Other shields I purchased were either not quite right in size, attracted lint and dust while trying to apply them, or got bubbles under the screen that I never could get out. None of those problems with this one. Perfect size. Came with a moistening spray that made it easy to get rid of bubbles and kept it from attracting debris, and I was able to reposition the screen protector in the few minutes before the spray dried. Even came with a little squeegee that was handy for application.

Reviews of MADE Rubberized Camera Armor (Black) for Nikon D40, D40x & D60

Customer Ratings:

There have been people who had bought the armor alone, who had complained about the lens armor piece falling off. There was a user who solved this dilemma (for the standard 15-55mm lens) by putting it on backwards and then flipping it inside out. Yup, that works. The only problem with that is it tends to block the flash and creates this little shadow at the bottom of the picture. Solution to that is to keep flipping the lens armor piece back and forth between use, if flash is needed. It's a little annoying, especially when putting the camera away in the bag, but since that was the one armor piece I had wanted because I was paranoid about banging up my lens, I just put up with it.

This armor does not fit as snugly as the Delkin Snug-it armor, but it does the job, although the flash is semi-blocked by the top flap. Solution to that is to just push it down to let the flash pop up. I'm still debating if I should cut it off or not.

The cleaning cloth is a nice handy piece to have attached to the bag. I was a little annoyed when I received my order because the cleaning solution had a leak and got most of the kit wet.

Other than that, a nice deal if you're going to buy the armor (never hurts to have extra cleaning kits or memory card holders or LCD screen protectors, right?).

Cheap Fujifilm FinePix HS50EXR Digital Camera Case Vidpro VID90 Water

Customer Ratings:

The Fujifilm FinePix HS50EXR Digital Camera Case Vidpro VID90 Water Resistant was delivered very quickly. I like that the bag is large enough to place the camera plus all kinds of other things in it. It has multiple zipper pouches also which can be used for all your personal items. The divider that was inside was very flimsy and I took it out. It did not hold anything anyway. The bag has a nice shoulder strap for easy handling. I would recommend this to all who have this camera.

I bought this camera case for the Fuji HS35EXR and I like it very much. It's bigger than it looks in the picture and nicely padded. I still used the dividers so the camera is not sliding around in the case and still had room for the manual and other things inside with the camera. There is no hard shell around this, it's all padding. Still have room for cell phone, sun glasses, etc. I'm very happy with this purchase.

Honest reviews on Fujifilm FinePix HS50EXR Digital Camera Case Vidpro VID90 Water

We just received the camera case and my husband really likes the look and the fact that it is not a heavy, cumbersome camera case. I like the idea of having zippered pockets (3 of them) on the outside of the bag. With the size of the Fuji HS0EXR, we had to remove all the compartment dividers, but that is fine. There is still room for our point and shoot in its case if we want to take that along as well.

Great looking case and very functional.

Review of Lowepro ILC Classic 100 Camera Case - Black

Customer Ratings:
List Price: $64.99
Sale Price: $29.99
Today's Bonus: 54% Off

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program This camera case is basically for any camera smaller than an SLR. It is like a regular camera gadget bag only smaller. The internal dimensions are approximately 7 x 4 inches by 5 inches deep. Within that standard block-shaped space you can position two included dividers to create up to three cells to separate your camera and any other equipment you might care to carry along with you.

There are two dedicated memory pockets under the lid. The pocket in the front of the case should not be used to carry anything that is small enough to slip out or smooth enough to slide out, because the pocket cannot be sealed. Things are held in the front pocket by the lid flap. The strap has a nice anti-slip area, which is a nice touch. The case is made of quality material throughout.

A permanent strap "handle" is convenient for carrying it like a little suitcase and two permanent straps on either end can be used to clip things to (or whatever your imagination can come up with).

It's a nice, quality product. But...

I don't like a flap whose only practical use seems to be to help keep things in the front pocket. If you were to remove the flap and make the front pocket sealable, you'd have a better product in my opinion. In case you didn't know, the contents of this case are kept safe because the lid is zippered. The latchable flap is just an annoyance to me.

There's one other weird thing. I would have liked it much better if the shoulder/neck strap and the small permanent carry strap were located in the middle of the case, right over the center of gravity, rather than on the corner of the case. Unless you carry it in your hands, using one of the two straps will cause the case to be tilted. That's just weird and awkward to me.

I gave it four stars instead of three because the very features that I don't like may be useful to someone else. The material is tough and the design is simple. But the flap and the offset carrying straps bother me.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program This camera bag is suited toward either smaller SLR cameras or camcorders. It is being marketed as a bag for 4/3rd's style SLR's, but it has many uses beyond that as well (my Nikon D50 and lens can fit). Overall, the construction and quality is nice, however, for the price I would have expected better design, ergonomics and storage options.

Pros:

-Good material construction

-Small & lightweight

-2 dividers than can be placed anywhere within the bag

-2 memory card pouches

-Buckles and zipper closure provide options

-Clean, sleek look

Cons:

-Interior bag fabric not bonded to the padding could come loose or stretched after repeated repositioning of the dividers

-Expensive for the small size and limited storage options

-No zippered/velcro pockets other than for memory cards.

-Poor carrying ergonomics the strap and handle are positioned off-center, and feels like the camera can fall out if the flap isn't zippered shut.

The exterior construction is nice, the top flap can be either zipped shut, or simply buckled. The watchout here is that the strap and handle are not placed well. If your camera is in the bag, but the bag isn't zipped or buckled, you may find the camera tumbling out as you pick up the bag. Additionally, with the buckles attached to the underside of the flap, they're hard to get to and limited in adjustment.

Two dividers, one full depth and one 1/2 depth, allow you to create up to 3 compartments inside the bag, or you can remove them completely. The dividers stick anywhere within the bag, not just in certain spots. This lets you fully customize the interior. If you often rearrange the dividers, be aware that as you pull them off the sides, it tends to stretch the interior fabric. Over time, I could see the fabric stretching out.

Removing all the dividers, I was able to fit my Nikon D50 camera with 15-105mm lens in the bag. Granted, nothing else would fit, but this does make it a suitable bag for entry-level DSLR owners your camera and lens will fit, but you just won't have extra room. That makes this bag nice when you only want to carry just a camera and its lens, and don't want to deal with a huge bag.

With only one general-use pocket, which cannot be secured, valuables like a tripod mount, battery, etc don't feel secure. I would've preferred the pocket to either zip shut or at least have a velco tab, especially with the way the bag flips forward when picked up by the handle or strap.

I'm honestly stuck between 3 and 4 stars on this one, but feel it fell short on overall value ($50 at the time of this review). It's a quality bag, but a bit pricey and could've had some better ergonomic and design options. A simple bag might be worth the cost if it's perfectly designed, but I don't think Lowepro hit the mark on this one.

Honest reviews on Lowepro ILC Classic 100 Camera Case - Black

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program The interior dimensions of this bag are approximately 7" x 4" x 5". It looks like a little lunch bag actually. It is well padded. I like that the padded separators are adjustable (with velcro). The position of the shoulder strap is kind of strange, located at the back of the bag. This is not a problem when I'm wearing the bag over my shoulders, but when I'm handling the bag it tends to tip forwards. A bit awkward, but I guess this will just take some getting used to. I like the small handle on the back of the bag. It has two small interior pockets for memory cards. Overall I would say that this is a good quality camera bag, but too expensive at the current price of just under fifty dollars.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I have probably a half a dozen LowePro bags (the downside of having a photography hobby) and this bag is the first one that I thought was a bit of a disappointment. I like pockets on camera bags because there's no shortage of stuff you carry, from memory cards to misc cables.

Like all of the LowePro bags I have, they're built ruggedly very well padded and can handle some abuse. Something this small should feel like it should take some abuse. The camera fit a T2i with kit lens pretty snugly, but it's designed for those who went for the 4/3rds cameras. I'd even use this for a larger megazoom digital camera.

The price is what causes me some reservation. At $50, it's far more expensive than their other bags this size. I'd recommend something like the Lowepro Edit 100 Camcorder Bag (Black) or the Lowepro Adventura 170 Camera Case (Black) simply because if you've already bought a camera and an extra lens, you're on your way to spending more money on the camera for additional accessories.

This is a decent bag, but the price kills it.

Review of Lowepro Vertex 200 AW Backpack

Customer Ratings:
List Price: $349.99
Sale Price: $299.99
Today's Bonus: 14% Off

I bought this pack a couple days before my trip to Turkey. I had a 15" MacBookPro, Canon 30d, 17-55/2.8 attached, 70-200/4, 30 1.4, battery chargers/power adapters, Gorillapod SLR, filter cases, cleaning clothes and solution, etc. All the stuff photo enthusiasts take on long trips. Overall this pack performed fantastically.

Pros: Despite the previous reviewers comments, I found the Vertex 200 to be very comfortable when it was completely adjusted. But to adjust it for maximum comfort I tightened all the straps very tight. Between the waist strap, shoulder straps and the chest strap, I thought it was about as comfortable as any other way for me to carry that much gear without being a roll-bag. I like that the zippers are water-proof even though I never had to test that feature. The top handle is sturdy and comfortable when the bag is off.

It's well padded and comes with many re-configureable velcro compartment walls for the interior. Shoulder straps are also very padded and comfortable when the waist and chest strap are fastened.

Cons: The laptop shouldn't be in the front flap. I'm not sure I understand the design decision of putting one of the heavier items in the whole pack on the front flap that requires lifting to get to the contents. Then when you want to fully open the pack, you have to make sure your laptop encased in the flap has a flat surface to rest upon. You certainly can't fling it open with reckless abandon.

I agree with the previous reviewer that the laptop placement also tends to make the bag tippy. Luckily my MBP doesn't weigh very much, but I can imagine if my wife's hp 15" laptop were in there it would be more of a problem. On top of that, it levers the weight of the computer further away from the body's center of gravity when being worn.

Conclusion:

The laptop placement and the somewhat useless expandable pockets on the side are the only things preventing me from giving this bag 5 stars. It is obviously very sturdy and protective. It performed great and I walked quite far with it without pain. A considerable feat for someone with bad knees like me.

If I were making the choice again I might look at the Kata backpack more closely as they decided to put the laptop closest to the body of the wearer. But I also preferred the subdued look of this bag.

Bottom line: a sturdy well-built pack that could use some design improvements.

After obsessing over camera packs I chose the Lowepro Vertex 200 and brought it to Boston for a 5 day photoshoot. It was loaded down with a Canon Rebel body, 17-40 lens, 50mm lens, small tripod, flash, 14 inch laptop and various accessories. Total weight 25.6 lbs (according to airport scale)

For reference, I'm an avid backpacker and have tried on and purchased many high-end packs before.

What I like: It's stylish and built like a tank. (but weighs as much as one) Feel confident your gear will be safe inside. There are dozens of pockets and it is very customizable. Sealed zippers are a nice touch, usually found only on high-end technical packs.

Complaints: The accessory pockets on the front and inside are not wide enough for the manuals. The outer side pockets are not good for much either, I normally stick a water bottle in there. The laptop sleeve is positioned at the front of the bag, which makes the pack very tippy. It would be more stable tucked next to your back.

My biggest complaint is the harness. Due to excessive flight delays at Boston Logan, I wore this pack for 3 or 4 hours walked a mile or two. By the end of the day, my shoulders and back were killing me. Lowe makes some excellent packs for backpackers, which is why I was so surprised at the crappy suspension. It just hangs on your back.

Maybe I'm spoiled by my Atmos 50 by Osprey Packs. I've packed 35 pounds and it feels great. At $229, I expect more.

I bought this pack just before a 3 week trip to Patagonia. It had no problem carrying all my photo gear and laptop for the trip. Overall it's a good pack, can use a lot of improvement in the comfort area.

This pack, as all backpacks do, suffers from the "take off the pack, put it on the ground, get out your stuff" problem, but that's unavoidable with a backpack. On the other hand, the nice thing about the pack is that the quick access zipper pouches are very nice. All of your batteries, memory cards and filters are very accessible. This is about as good as it gets with a backpack.

The major drawback to this pack I found was that it's not comfortable to wear, particularly on longer hikes. Lowepro is known to make solid, comfortable packs but this is not one of them. A friend and I both had the pack and despite all the adjustment straps we couldn't get the load to distribute comfortably. In fact, in both of our cases, the shoulder straps buckled right where they met the backpack. The pack just didn't fit correctly.

Honest reviews on Lowepro Vertex 200 AW Backpack

I won't go in to too much of a review of the useful aspects of the 200 other than to say for my needs it's great. I love the organizational possibilities, the high level of protection and the weather proof zippers and rain cover. A lot of great attention to detail with this pack.

What I want to focus on is being 6'4" tall and needing a pack that carries well on my back. I tried the Vertex 100 and with the shoulder straps fully extended the waistband still hit me above my naval, by several inches! All I needed was a pair of PeeWee Herman pants and I'm ready to go cover a golf tournament!

The added two inches in length of the 200 made all the difference. The 300 would probably be perfect for fit but the 200 is better for travel as a carry on piece and also to hold my current photo kit. The shoulder straps are well padded and comfortable as is the waist belt. There is a sternum strap to hold the should straps in place and when properly adjusted the pounds disappear as I carry it.

One other feature I really like is the tripod carrying possibilities. The best is down the middle in the back but you can also carry it on either side to maintain easier access to the main compartments but depending on your tripod this may make the load off balanced too much.

From a tall guy, I love this pack.

First, the good:

It's plenty of room to accommodate most of your gear. I particularly fit the following equipment:

1 Pentax K10D with the battery grip attached

1 Pentax SMC DA* 50-135mm f/2.8 with the hood on (attached to camera)

1 Sigma 400mm 5.6

1 Pentax SMC-M 50mm f/2

1 Pentax DA SMC 18-55mm

1 Pentax DA SMC 50-200mm

1 Vivitar 2X Teleconverter

3 UV/PL filters (67mm)

1 Sakar flash

And there's space for more; however, I consider that there's room for improvement:

Laptop compartment is in the front of the backpack. Meaning that if you lay down the backpack to access your camera and have a laptop in it, you'll have to deal with the "heavy" top as your laptop is in the front flap. Many manufacturers place this compartment in the back (the part that is against you when using the backpack)

I wish the pockets meant as filter holder in the front/left part of the backpack would have been elastic. I have a couple of 67mm filters in their cases and even though the pockets are big, they are not big enough to fit the cases.

-I wish the top part of the backpack would have had a "quick access" system (with zippers or Velcro) to access your camera. This is just a personal observation!

I wish it would have more external pockets, as there's space to incorporate those.

Overall, I like this backpack really much. It is very comfortable and feels very well constructed. My gear feels very safe in it. Its "all weather" construction is a plus.

Initially, I thought my camera would not fit this case. Then I looked at my camera closely and noticed that the lens was not retracting into the camera body when it was switched off. At first I thought this was normal and that this case was not the correct one. Then I decided to visit the Fuji website and search for a question of this nature and I found it! Turns out my camera was shipped with the configuration for "Waterproof Case" switched ON. This configuration prevents the lens from retracting into the camera body when it is switched off. Setting the camera configuration for "Waterproof Case" to the OFF setting, causes the camera lens to retract into the camera body when switched off and allows the camera to fit nicely into this cool little case! The case has a belt loop for attaching to a belt and a small mesh pouch on the front where you can store an extra battery, USB cable and/or an extra memory card. It also comes with an adjustable shoulder strap. What else could you possibly want for $.01??

Reviews of Lowepro Nova 2 AW Camera Bag (Black)

Customer Ratings:

I purchased this bag for my Canon Digital Rebel SLR and I am extremely pleased. It is not the largest gadget bag that I own, but it is the best by far. The bag itself is 10" high, 9" wide and 6" deep so it is ideally sized for travel with your camera. It is well sized and balanced for carrying over one shoulder using the comfortable strap which is included. The bag is made of nylon, but it has a very study frame to it so the bag keeps its shape. Lowepro was generous with distributing the padding and I feel that the bag keeps my equipment quite safe.

The bag includes padded dividers which can be configured using Velcro. I have the bag configured so that I put my camera body with my 28-135mm lens attached into the bag lens first so that I can take it out again quickly. The dividers have rigidity to them so I am comfortable that they will support the camera body without risking the lens will hit the bottom of the bag. There is also enough room for my 300mm lens and accessories such as my spare batteries or lens covers.

Pockets include one on each side of the bag. There is a great zippered pocket on the back of the bag that is really useful for quickly stowing papers or books. There is also a zippered pocket inside the top flap where I keep my memory cards. The pocket on the front is also zippered and subdivided to store memory cards, filters, etc.

The bag includes a limited lifetime warranty. The bag is very well built and much better than any of the similar bags that I was looking at such as those by Targus which I did not think were as sturdy as this one.

In summary, I think that this is a great bag for a SLR camera. I use it extensively for my travels and I am very happy with it.

This is my second Lowepro bag (the other being a Slingshot 100 AW), but it's my most preferred. This is especially true for those days when I want to carry just the camera and one zoom lens (in my case, an Olympus E-500 with a 14-54mm/f2.8-3.5 lens) for family outings and visits, parties, etc. This should not imply the bag doesn't hold all I need, quite the contrary. This bag easily accommodates a FL-36 flash, an Olympus EC-14 teleconverter, Stofen Omnibounce, a spare BLM-1 battery, extra batteries for my flash, extra CF cards, a Lenspen, a tabletop tripod, a CP filter, and RM-1 remote switch, and other small accessories. It can even accept my E-500/14-54 with the EC-14 mounted as well, with no loss of room -all this in a compact size and it's relatively lightweight too. What more can I ask?

I use this bag with a Nikon D70, a large flash and a Sony camcorder. It holds all three with extra batteries, lens cleaner, media cards and a mini tripod to boot. It is comfortable and very secure. I've had alot of bags in over 30 years of shooting -a few of them working in a camera store. This is the top if it holds all your gear. The weather cover is a nice bonus that I found only after I got the bag home. Five stars.

The bag is well padded and fits the following in the main compartment

Nikon D80 with 18-200mm lens attached

50mm f1.8 lens

SB600 flash OR battery charger (bulky for D80 battery)

The bag has several pockets:

Pocket in front of bag. I store extra batteries, memory here.

Pocket inside the top cover. They placed a piece of cloth/vinyl to cover the zipper pull so it won't scratch what you have in the main compartment. A nice thought.

Side external pockets (exposed). I guess you can stick paper maps here.

The lid feels very sturdy. It is a fairly tight fit, and may require some fiddling with to close. The only "-" for the bag.

Hi,

This is a new product (March 2011) and there were very few reviews when I bought it. I decided to make a somewhat longer video review (2 parts) which can be seen at YT search for 'kata LighTri 318 UL part 1' and 'kata LighTri 318 UL part2' The short version it's a well designed, well built bag if you are willing to pay. I will be using this bag for a trip to Vietnam in May so I'll try to update it after I get back. I suspect that the materials of the fabric are fairly high tech and perhaps I'm not giving enough credence to those features when talking about cost value. Also, the front and back 'pockets' are not large enough to carry all those extras that photographers seem to have. Let me know if you have any questions.

UPDATE 21/6/2011

After using this bag on my trip and several other times, I think it's the best one I've owned so far. Mostly due to its ease in putting it on and moving it around. I thought I might move my camera equipment out of it to my big Lowepro when I got back but instead I've made it my main bag to grab going out the door. I would make this a 4.5 stars if Amazon let me.

Its able to hold all my camera gear.Olympus E5, and lenses Zuiko 50-200 SWD, Zuiko 12-60 SWD, Zuiko 50mm,FL-36R Flash..etc. and some accessories like batteries and filters with out using the included small pouch.

It serves the purpose gracefully. It provides a very easy way to carry just your camera gear when you walk around snapping, and it provides very easy and fast access to all the gear too.It is perfectly engineered and of good build quality.when fully loaded in front position the bag sags a little to the front, but I think it has more to do with the way I am organizing the heavy things inside.

You will like this bag , if you are like me, not a fan of carrying around things like laptops,tablets, tripods..etc in/on those big heavy camera bags.

for long travels you can have another backpack that hangs behind holding all your personal stuff and electronics other than camera gear and put this on front carrying position. This has another advantage that the weight that you are carrying is more on a balanced way now.I haven't taken this on an plane trip yet but I assume it will be work out very easy if I use this bag, and I think this one is compact enough to fit under the front seat.

Another thing I like about it is the fact that the bag can serve as a hand support while in-front position. It will never be as firm as a tripod but it can really help getting a more stable shot.

I would have given it a 4.5 rating if it was possible.The only thing I didn't like about it was the pricing. It is priced a little above what 'I think' is worth paying for.I bought it used-like new for around 62$. I think around 90$-110$ would be a reasonable price for new. Don't worry about the pricing and go ahead and buy it if you are looking around for a bag with perfect build quality and with above said features.

roomy enough for my 7d with a 28-300mm lens attached plus a 10-22 mm lens plus a 580exII flash I don't need to haul around my big backpack all the time now. can be used as a torso or a sling bag very versatile.

Honest reviews on Kata KT UL-LT-318 Ultra-Light LighTri-318 Torso-Pack

This pack is decently well made and serves its function in a barely acceptable way. However, if you want to wear it as a slingpack and carry it mostly on your back (as advertised), you may develop lower back problems somewhere down the line. It will stick away from your back and distribute the weight in an unhealthy way putting pressure on your lower back by pulling on your shoulder away from your back. It is also larger than you would expect from looking at pictures and videos.

Carrying it on the front is only good for specialized work demanding maximum mobility with quick access to gear. You will not be walking around like this -it is large enough to obstruct the view of where you are going and make you look really stupid.

Putting stuff in and out of the bag is not problematic and you should have no problems with changing lenses. Unless of course you put something in the side pouch. It is notoriously difficult to open with one hand and that is how you will be operating it most of the time -the second hand will be holding the camera. You could put the camera away for a moment but the pouch is hard to reach with two hands due to the size of the pack. Across-the-chest camera straps are practically impossible to use with this pack -you cannot lift the camera high enough to exchange lenses because the camera strap will collide with the straps of the pack.

Finally, there is the price. This torso pack, like the rest of Kata's stuff, is way overpriced. I cannot agree with one of the other reviewers who says it is Ok to spend more just to get this pack. There is no logic to this statement; surely, anything can be bought for more than what it is worth, but that certainly does not justify Kata milking customers.

Pro: Great bag to carry a few DSLR pieces to your photo site (Nikon D600, tele-zoom, wide angle, flash, filters) when I don't need everything that's in the backpack.

Neutral: Neither comfortable nor uncomfortable to carry on a short hike. Needs to include some instruction on how to use the extra carry straps for other configurations. Even the mfg on-line videos don't help much.

Con: Cost I purchased before the price reduction and that was too much for this bag. With the reduced price I'm more toward neutral.

Recommendation: Neutral.

I have the Sony NEX-5 with the 18-200mm lens, and was looking for a case/sleeve for it so that I can put it in any bag. This case is perfect, the camera with open hood and the big lens is going in. I added a strap which is for around the neck and with that I connected the case with the camera strap, so when I take out the camera the case falls down, and after use I put the camera back. Perfect, I am so happy. I will, add also a photo.

Only it would be good if the producer could add such a strap.

This case is excellent! Its forgiving shape allows it to be used with both of my cameras and all my lenses, so I needn't buy multiple, model-specific cases for each piece of equipment. Neoprene is one of my favorite materials (I've been using neoprene laptop cases for years) as it offers just the right amount of protection without adding a lot of bulk. If you're very rough with your equipment or tend to carry around a lot of accessories this might not be the case for you as it's no substitute for a camera bag, but for casual photography sessions it's the perfect case to carry along just the necessities. Be sure to pay close attention to the specifications of this case; it comes in multiple sizes, so make sure you get the one that can accomodate the length of your lenses!

These neoprene case is exactly what i was looking for. I like to walk with my DSLR camera. I usually only use a camera strap over my shoulder. I don't like risking scratching or breaking my camera tought. In the past, i used a more expensive neoprene case and i liked it a lot. This time, since i could find a cheaper one, i decided to give it a try. It works perfectly! No tether strap is included but i have sewn one easily. It is more than big enough for my Nikon D40 with 18-55. It could be used with a bigger DSLR body. I think it could work with a 50-200 lense too since i use my 18-55 with a sun shade installed all the time. The neoprene stretch enough for not even bothering to unhook velcro. It do the job!

Honest reviews on HDE Neoprene Camera Case

Not exactly what i expected. i would not say it is bad because for the money it is a good value but not for a nikon coolpix L105. it is much too large to fit snuggly. the other drawback which i did not anticipate is that there is nothing to tether it to the camera. so you take the camera out of this case, and you have to find a place to stow it, perhaps a ring that one could thread the camera strap thru would be helpful. in any case, because it was too large for the camera the two "arms" with velcro had to be wrapped over farther then they were designed for leaving very little for the velcro to grab on to...... final result, while carrying camera over shoulder, velcro arms came loose and case fell off without my notice and is lost....

Great case for the price. It fits my Nikon with a 200mm lens. It's a tight fit, but figure it will stretch.

Neoprene Sleeve Case (Black) for Nikon Coolpix S8000 14 MP Digital Review

I purchase this Neoprene case about a month ago for the Nikon Coolpix S8000 point and shoot camera. I thought it looked better and easier to hold then the hard shell and leather cases. Found this case to be the exact size of the camera so you will have to stretch the case a bit to fit the camera in. The side pocket can hold an extra memory card but a extra battery maybe a bit much. I would recommend if you have arthritis or finger dexterity issues to get the next larger size case called "Neoprene Sleeve (Super Black) Case for Nikon Coolpix S8000 14 MP Digital Camera Red" by Kroo it has two stylish zeros on front of the case. Also I give the Vendor "PC Micro Store" five stars for their quick delivery and customer service it was excellent.
