I ordered the WP700, yet I received the WP711. This review sits separate from the 3-star review I gave the company who sold/shipped this to me via Amazon. See the WP700 product page for which company that is.

That said...

NOTES AND TRICKS

I was concerned I'd run into issues fitting my Sony TX-7 into this case, however after a weekend of underwater shooting I can't say I've had any problems. I highly recommend watching the youtube videos for this product to make sure you're properly sealing the pack after inserting your camera. On a full touchscreen camera like the TX-7, getting the air out of the pack as much as possible before sealing it up ensures a) the camera won't move around much, and b) there's no air or air bubbles to interfere with the controls on the back. Also, and I'm no scientist, but it seems logical that the less air that's inside the pack, the less room there'd be for condensation buildup. Dicapac includes a minuscule silica packet to counteract any humidity, though I have a hard time seeing how effective a small packet like this would be for a very prolonged period of time.

ACCESS & CONTROL

This section definitely depends on your individual camera, but here's my experience.

Once you've properly sealed the pack, and you've double checked that the rectangular "window" around the lens and flash isn't blocking either one of those components, you're good to go. Using a fingertip, I was able to change my settings at will through the plastic of the Dicapac. The TX-7's mock rotary zoom wheel on the upper-right corner of the camera was slightly difficult to reach through the plastic, however once I realized what sort of pressure worked in what place (working somewhat blind given the right edge of the Dicapac obscured the very right edge of the camera's hardware) the zoom controls became moderately comfortable.

QUALITY

Again, this will depend largely on your camera, but I was quite happy with the results through the Dicapac. There was a very minor sheen when I used the "incandescent light" scene mode on the TX-7 which didn't exist with the camera outside of the Dicapac, but much of your success or failure in high detail shots will depend on the space between the plastic and the lens. If you press directly down on the shutter, the plastic may bulge out a bit in the front, adding unwanted distortion to the shot. Damping down the plastic, going from the front of the camera over the top toward the back, will keep the plastic from bulging out. Shooting underwater with a $30 waterproof pack will certainly create a small amount of degradation but nothing which would lead to an undesirable photo. Video seems sharp as well, and (I say this as a novice) it seems that you'd notice the difference in quality less during video given how artifacts are more likely to show up in a frame rather than in fluid motion.

THE AFTERMATH

I left the camera in the pack for a few days. At the end of those few days, moments after last using it, I took it out to watch the results on my tv. I was quite surprised at how much water was absorbed by the velcro. Hours later, there was still a small bit of residual moisture. A smart move might be to grab a hair dryer, set it on low, and from a distance dry out the velcro. The plastic seems heavy enough to be unaffected by a hair dryer set on low, but you can't be too careful with something tasked with protecting an expensive camera. The realization from this was that the ziploc-style seal is, in the end, the only thing keeping the camera from becoming an expensive paperweight. It's rolled up many times over, and it's something I feel I can trust, but if you like your camera MAKE SURE THAT THE SEAL IS TIGHT.

I'd feel comfortable buying this again, especially since if I'm ever in a weird bind it would also work perfectly well as a cellphone case or a carryall for my keys/credit card/ID as I'm out at the beach & in the water. Just make sure you're getting what you ordered.

I recently bought a WP711 for a trip to Hawaii to use with my Fuji FinePix Z30. This is my backup camera and did not cost much, so I did not mind risking it. I tested the WP711 as soon as I received it, and it worked fine in the sink. I then used it on 6 salt water snorkeling trips (ranging from 30 90 min) over a 2 week span with no leaks. This was mostly at the surface, but also included a few quick trips to 6-8 feet underwater. Based on the other reviews, I was cautious: I made sure everything was well sealed and downloaded all pictures after every use. I don't think I'll use it again for a few months, and I'll definitely redo the sink test before putting my camera in again.

Fitting the FinePix Z30

My Z30 is not a perfect fix in the WP711. There is definitely extra room in the case; however, I found that to be useful. The Z30 on/off mechanism is sliding the front cover to the left/right, which is not easy to do through the case (the case material tends to suction to the camera, which is good for keeping the lens lined up, but bad for sliding pieces around). Having the added space to shift the camera around allowed me to get the camera on/off when needed. That was a chore, so on later trips I made sure to start with a full battery, turn the camera on before going in the water, and leave it on for the whole trip.

Image quality

This obviously depends a lot on the camera (and mine is not great), but I did not find the WP711 to noticeably reduce the image quality. It did affect the flash, so I learned not to use that. Here's one of my clearest shots, taken in about 5 feet of water with lots of light:

I found that I got clearer shots when diving a few feet below the surface and shooting more horizontally. This probably has more to do with my camera and lighting than the WP711, but I don't know for sure.

Conclusion

I would recommend the WP711 to anyone who wants underwater pictures has a camera they're willing to risk. It's given me a lot more and better pictures than the underwater disposable cameras I've used in the past.

I bought this for an older sony cybershot..hoping it would work..but figured if it didn't no worries..it's an older camera anyways!! It worked like a charm!! We took it snorkeling with us in Honduras and Belize and had no problems with leaking..the camera stayed dry and we got great coral, sting ray, fish, etc underwater pix!! Definitely recommend this product..just be careful not to leave too much air in the bag or the camera will "float" around in it and you take the chance of the lens moving right in front of the line..which will mess up your pix. :)

I bought this to use while snorkeling. After the second day, there seemed to be moisture in the bag, and the plastic no longer looked clear. I must say that it did keep the camera dry and I took a lot of underwater pictures and videos and they came out ok, but I will look around for something else for my next trip. I didn't love it.

I bought this for my Olympus 720 SW. "But it's a waterproof camera!", you ask. Reading reviews online for the CAMERA, it seemed about 10-20% of the time, water would leak into the camera and ruin it, so I bought this Dicapac pouch as an added layer of protection.

Unfortunately, I had a few problems with this pouch.

1) When doing outdoorsy things that might require a pouch like this, the user is also likely to be wearing sunscreen and insect repellent. As such, it was easy to smudge the outer plastic just by inadvertently touching (i.e., if the pouch hits my arm or leg) so that it made photos very cloudy. It was difficult to "wash off" while in the water, so generally photos were cloudier than they should have been. Even when the pouch was perfectly clean I found that taking photos through the plastic distorts photos somewhat.

2) The pouch itself isn't quite the right fit for the Olympus 720 SW, even though the WP-711 is the recommended size by the Dicapac manufacturer for this camera. As a result, I struggled with the camera moving around inside the pouch, and often the rectangle on the front that is intended to take photos within would migrate so that the edge of the rectangle was right in the middle of the photo lens. This also ruins a fraction of photos.

3) It's a little unwieldy to take photos through the pouch.

4) Yes, my camera stayed absolutely dry within this pouch.

5) My Olympus 720 SW was indeed successful when NOT using this pouch at remaining waterproof. My best photos from snorkelling are WITHOUT the pouch much sharper and clearer.

Having the pouch and having cloudy/blurry photos with a camera that didn't get wet is still somewhat better than the blurry photos that I generally take with disposable water proof cameras, but removing the pouch and successfully being able to use the waterproof feature of my camera made the pouch seem useless. Other users who don't have naturally waterproof cameras whose cameras may fit this pouch a bit better may still find value from using the pouch.

I just with the rectangle on the front of the pouch weren't there that seems to only be a potential barrier for anyone using this size.

Overall no issues with Ocean Reef Electronics. The item was shipped promptly and in new condition.

Gives fair protection, and its a good A-to-B travel case.

If you are travelling through dense forest, for instance, its good in that it affords good protection to the camera. But if you need to take a photo in a hurry you will be fiddling with the case to get the camera out, and again to get it back in. The design is a bit flawed in that respect, and also the design of the flap leaves the camera open to the elements.

Not going to complain for under $20, but it still only gets 3 stars.

The description of the product says you can use it for Olympus Stylus SP800UZ, I'd say that is not true. The bag is much bigger than the camera, so the bag becomes flabby.

I have a Nikon D60 and the standard lens and body fits a bit too snugly in the case. A wider lens and/or tripod mounting plate will keep it from being able to be secured with the Velcro flap. Pros: it's definitely minimal/light and it offers just enough protection so you can throw your camera in any bag or carry it around your neck without feeling bad about it. It also has a small elastic sling that you can tie off to the camera strap.

I have found this product to be fair deal, with only minor quips. It provides protection for my Olympus Tough 6000 from excessive bumps and bruises, plus it keeps it afloat if it falls overboard.

I would have preferred a hook-and-loop/velcro fastener instead of the toggle fastener they used to hold the cover closed.

Case is too small for camera. Case gaps open around it.

You secure it closed by a loop and stick method. Kinda cheesy and clumsy to use.

No clip or belt loop. Just a small D-ring on back. Supply your own device to attach it to something.

Pos.. the clip to the camera is compatible with the orange float wrist strap. Detach one and put the other.

This is still a better alternative to the orange float wrist strap. I also attached the standard loop wrist lanyard to the camera in conjunction with the floating case.

After purchasing a Canon 40D, 3 lenses and a 580 speedlight and combining this with my existing two lenses and a Canon 300D camera body and a 420EX speedlight my canvas and back pack bags were a non-starter.

Pelican sells to the US Army among others and we've shipped goods that survived fork lift prong holes in the case with Pelican but not with others. The 1510 can carry all my stuff in waterproof and dust proof protection fit in an overhead airline bin and have wheels and an extended handle that make dragging it around easier than anything I've tried yet.

The model comes without padding with foam padding you can "pluck" to fit or my choice the most costly padded insert. For space management and reasonable internal protection this is the way to go. It allows for change of your equipment by simply adjusting the velcro dividers. No wasted space. Everything safe and secure. Pelican will sell you TSA approved locks as an aftermarket choice. Something to consider if you travel and want to secure your rig from the luggage gorillas and still meet the approval of the TSA.

Lifetime replacement guarantee from Pelican.

Make sure you specify and confirm the EXACT type of insert you desire. The only drawback with this case... it's getting crowded in there and the next larger size goes in with the stored luggage in the airplane hold... no way...

This is a great Pelican case small enough to easily store in the overhead compartment while flying, tuff, organized, and portable in airports as a carry on with its wheels and retractable handle for those of us that do not want to check your $10,000 in camera equipment to be tossed around by the baggage handlers. The construction qulaity is amazing. I can fit my 17-40, 100 mm macro, flash, 70-200, 24-70, body with a vertical grip, and still have room for filters, and lots of extra accessories. If you buy the separate lid organizer listed on amazon you will not be able to use the top foam insert which compromises the protection it offers so I would not buy it again. Recommended for any serious photographer!!

I purchased this to hold my photography gear. The case itself is fantastic and I would give it 5 Stars. The issue I have is with the padded dividers. First-of-all the photo of the divider is different from what you get but that is not my main concern: What bothers me is that there is absolutely NO/ZERO padding on the bottom of the dividers. Therefore, if you put your lenses on the dividers your lenses will hit directly against the bottom of the hard case wall. Considering most of my lenses are f/2.8 I was not willing to take this risk so I called Pelican and they had me take photos of the padded dividers and send it to them. The called me back within the same day and told me the padded dividers that I have are a very very old version they used to supply with the 1514 case. Thus, apparently the supply of 1514 cases that Amazon currently has are very old but other than the padded divider rest of the case appears to be identical to the current generation. I was going to return the case to Amazon but Pelican said they would send me a padded insert to place on the bottom of the case for free so I am keeping the case and will see if the insert Pelican sends me resolves the issueif not, I will send this case back to Amazon and will purchase the case directly from Pelican so stay tuned.

Honest reviews on Pelican 1510-004-110 Case with Padded Dividers, Black



The video review goes over many of the case's features and helps give an idea of the size and what you can fit into the case. We mainly shoot video with our DSLR camera, so we carry several video-specific accessories, such as a microphone, matte box, follow focus, monitor, etc.

As mentioned in the video, our case did not come with the Pelican 1519 Lid Organizer for 1510 and 1514 Case, which was stated in the product description. I'm not sure if this was just a mistake or if this model doesn't actually come with it and the product description is just wrong, but we contacted Amazon and they reimbursed us for it, once again proving their great customer service.

I mentioned in the video that Amazon has a lock that they recommend for the case. The lock is the PELICAN 1500-518-000 1506 TSA Lock, which says it's TSA approved. I'm not exactly sure what that means, but the lock doesn't appear to be that secure and some of the reviews state that it could be easily cut with a Leatherman. I would think that TSA would allow you to take a padlock off the case if they needed to look through it, then put it back on once you're through security, but you never know.

All-in-all, great case. Watch the video for more details.

I've now used this case on a couple of photo gigs during the last month, and overall, I love it. It's cheaper than all the camera-specific soft-sided rolling cases and is a lot more durable in a big way. I love that when my camera gear is riding in this case, I have absolutely no worries what so ever.

When I received this case I immediately noticed that it was smaller than I was expecting. It was important for me to get something carry-on compliant though, so that's not Pelican's fault. It doesn't fit every last little thing I had hoped to cram in there, but it did allow me to consolidate a camera backpack and 2 random camera bags into the one case after removing a few insignificant things.

Bottom line for those who don't want to read the details? Yes I would buy this case again if I needed this size. Yes I would recommend it to a friend. Yes I'm thrilled with the purchase and the price! In the future I plan to buy a similarly equipped case that's larger for local gigs, and you can believe it's going to be a Pelican!

The Details:

*Padded divider system is adequate but not so padded that it wastes a lot of space. This is awesome. Some bags and cases on the market waste so much space through unnecessarily over-padded walls and dividers that it's ridiculous how much space is wasted. Also, It's worth mentioning that I have extra dividers left after I configured my case. Always a plus!

*The case itself is waterproof and overall is tough as nails. I can't wait to throw some travel at this case and see what she'll put up with.

*While not the typical inline-skate wheels you see on most luggage and rolling cases, the wheels do appear to be quite solid.

*I'm 6ft tall and sometimes find luggage and rolling cases to be uncomfortable to pull with how low their handles are. Happily, I don't have this issue with this case.

*Organization! With the padded dividers and the optional lid organizer, this case is awesome for organizing my gear. Both my assistants absolutely love this case, and it's also easy for me to describe where stuff is without having to show them. If you buy this case, you need to get the lid organizer. Period. It's cheap and so handy!

*Appearance: Now, a lot of people will tell you this isn't important. What I can say though, is that with weddings especially, but also other assignments, perception on the part of your clients and their guests is everything. This case definitely looks legit, while rolling behind us and when we open it up to reveal the myriad of equipment we use, all organized into compartments.

*The extra handles on the outside of the case (the non-extending ones) are crazy solid and very very handy when you need to move the case without the wheels, or load it into a car or a shelf. SOLID! And rubberized!

Other comments:

*The recesses for the wheels protrude into the inside of the case a bit. There really isn't a way around this if you want to keep the wheels protected, but I still found this to be mildly annoying when trying to make everything fit.

*The main pull handle is weird. It's one solid piece of molded plastic, rather than your typical telescoping luggage handle. It functions fine, and my guess is that it will surpass the typical luggage-style handles in longevity because it's leagues more durable and doesn't have moving parts. Still though, it's just a bit odd and it does flex a little bit in the middle. Overall though, still solid. I love that it locks when it's extended, and it locks when you push it back down into the case as well.

*One thing I didn't realize I'd miss: No pockets on the outside. On all my bags and backpacks and on my personal luggage, I've gotten used to large, flat outer zipper pockets. For photography, they were perfect for flat-folding light modifiers, lighting gels, disc reflectors, etc. Now I keep these items stored under the padded divider tray. Luckily the version I received has a padded bottom, so my assistants and I are able to pull the whole tray out to get to the flat items underneath.

What I fit in this case with a little experimentation and creative packing:

*2 Nikon DSLR's with Power Grips

*1 Nikon SB900 Speedlight (not in it's case)

*1 Nikon SB600 Speedlight (in it's case with it's foot/stand)

*1 Nikon SB24 Speedlight (in it's tie-up case)

*3 Pocket Wizard Plus II Transceivers

*Tamron 17-50mm F2.8 Lens with Hood (mounted to one of the cameras)

*Tokina 12-24mm F4 Lens with Hood

*Nikon 50mm F1.4G Lens

*Nikon DX 35mm F1.8G Lens

*Lensbaby Composer in the Lensbaby Case (tucked inside lightspere mentioned below).

*Old Nikon 70-210mm F4 Lens with Hood (similar in size I believe to the 80 to 200 F2.8 non-VR lens)

*5 Dot-Line AA Battery Cases (each fit 8 AA Batteries)

*Nikon SB-D9 Battery Pack for SB900

*Gary Fong Universal Lightsphere (the non-collapsible kind. Takes up a lot of space but worth it for wedding gigs)

*Joe Demb/Demb Flash Products Flip-It

*Small Dome Diffuser (similar to StoFen) that came with SB900

*Small Gel organizer that came with SB900

*Small Foot/stand that came with SB900

*Tripod & Monopod Plates

*2 Memory Card Wallets

*Sync Cables for flashes

*4 Extra Nikon Batteries (2 extras for each camera body)

*2 Small rolls of Gaffer's Tape (one black, one white)

*Lumiquest Softbox III (Flat under divider tray)

*Honl 8" Snoot (Flat under divider tray)

*Honl Grids 1/4" and 1/8"

*Honl Barn Door/Gobo (Flat under divider tray)

*Home-made velcro Gel Holder (Flat under divider tray)

This case fits my Canon G11 very well. It can even accomodate a Canon 270EX flash in the front pocket although it is a tight fit.

I bought this for a SX100IS and it fits very well; snug enough that I don't have to worry about it bouncing around, but loose enough that it's easy to remove when needed. It is made out of sturdy material and holds its shape even when empty. Making it easier to add and remove items.

The storage pocket easily holds four AA batteries and an extra memory card. You could fit more in there if you needed too. When closing it not only snaps shut, but also uses velcro to insure it stays that way (just in case the snap comes apart, or, you're like me and forgot to close it).

All in all, a very good bag for the price. I am well pleased and would buy again if I needed another bag for a similar sized camera.

Camera case: This is really a high quality bag (a little heavier than you thought). Compared to the previous starter kit, this bag has great improvement in terms of both build quality and space. It appears bigger for holding d3100 with kit lens and 50-200mm zoom lens. This is expected as it is also designed for holding d7000. So this bag is for one camera with two lens. There is also large space on the front pack for holding accessories.

Check my uploaded pictures of the bag in the share customer image section for a look.

This bag came with a DLSR package I bought a couple weeks ago and I was pretty excited about it. The material is good and it seems built to last. However, there is a pretty serious design flaw that has caused me to get rid of it. When you strap the bag shut the upper sides of the bag bulge out and create pretty large openings where the elements can seep in. It's pretty bad when you consider how sand or water can get into your bag and cause a really bug problem. Also, the inner adjustable compartments are pretty weak and it's pretty hard to get gear tightly secured into the bag. The bag can hold a decent amount of gear (I have a D3000, 35mm, 18-55 & 55-200 lens, battery charger and other stuff fitted in my bag but it just doesn't feel like a secure bag that I could trust for long term use.

I would suggest the Lowerpro slingshot bags instead. That bag gives you quick access to your camera, durable design and it keeps your extra gear solidly secured in your bag.

The quality of the bag is high, its padded, water resistant, and the locking clips won't break easily. The problem I have with this bag is that it is a bit too small and the layouts of the pockets are just not well thought out.

It would be better if if were about 1" wider, 2" longer, the height seems good. The pockets should be on the outside of the clips (they have a zipper anyways) so that you don't have to have the top open to access a battery or a lens for example. The lid pocket needs to be expandable or done away with, you can't keep anything more than a lens rag or a manual in it as is.

When I take my camera out for a hike I currently carry it in a range bag that I have padded, its slightly bigger and has all the pockets I need. When I'm at home I stow my camera in this bag.

Honest reviews on Nikon DSLR Starter Kit with Nikon School Fast, Fun and Easy DVD Set

Unfortunately, I did not check Amazon first before paying twice the amount at Best Buy for this same bag! With that said, this is a great bag. It holds both my Nikon 5100 with the 18-55mm lens attached, as well as my 70-300mm lens. I have my manuals, cables, acessories in the various pockets. The bag is very lightweight, which is what I was looking for. The DVD's are very informative, and I learned a lot about my camera from watching them.

The bag itself is spacious and well designed and it comfortably holds my D3100 with its stock lens and a 55-200m lens. I think it could have been a little smaller but I'm not too bothered by the size. The build quality is solid and I can see it lasting for a really long time. I especially like the clips which are made out of metal and should last for a really long time. I may go out and buy a smaller bag just for the camera and its smaller lens (since I don't see myself taking the bigger lens with me everywhere I go) but I'm largely satisfied with this bag.

What I loved even more about this kit was the instructional videos that came with it. Both me and my wife and clueless about how to operate an SLR so the videos were very helpful in getting us started in the right direction.

This was the recommended Canon camera case for my SX100IS. It fits the camera perfectly. For those complaining that it doesn't have extra pockets for spare batteries & SD Cards this is NOT a camera gear bag! If that's what you want then look elsewhere. If you just need a quality camera case for your Canon digital camera then this will fit the bill.

Probably should have shopped around a little more before getting this case. Not much room in it for my canon sx100...gotta squeeze it in there. No room for extra batteries, cards, etc. Cumbersome to get at camera with the 2 zippers to undo. I'll probably end up just using my old digicam case. Disappointed that this was the case recommended for my camera.

It has only one pocket: the one for the camera, which is bigger than enough. No place for spear batteries, sd cards, etc.

Honest reviews on PSC%2D100 Soft Compact Case for SX120 IS Camera

This is a nice camera case. Do not confuse this product for a camera bag, because that is not what it is. It is a camera case. It holds and protects your camera. Thats it. Nothing more. That is its intended function -and it should be reviewed as such.

Fits my new Canon SX110 IS perfectly. Provides a good amount of padding around the camera, for a little bit of extra piece of mind protection. I especially like how there is a hole for the strap on the camera to come through the top, with the case closed, like older Canon cases used to have. Nice touch. Case looks quite nice as well.

This is by far the coolest tripod iv ever seen...is not really tall but you can angle it to get the shot you need. I love how you can attach it to what ever you want! Wrap it around a tree branch, cabinet handle, stand it up on a table, throw it in your purse and go. the pink case is also handy, has a place for extra memory cards and has a clip so you can keep track of it! No more digging to the bottom of my purse for it. All around great choice. Price is great, shipping was quick!

this is a great little bag when you want to carry just 2-3 lenses. i bought this for my wife. she has a Nikon D3100. She can fit her 50mm f1.8 len with the body, and also her 18-55mm kit lens. also in the bag, she could also fit an extra better, 3 cables (1 HDMI, 1 USB & a lightning cable). in addition she can fit a couple SD cards, lens caps, and some filters. She doesn't have any other lens to pack inside but since the inserts in the larger compartment is ajustable, you can add another lens. no complaints here whatsoever. for the price you can't really complain. it does what it should. I have also place my own Canon T4i with some lens in there as well and it fitted fine. If you're interested in knowing which lens i've added and DSLRs i've added, here's a list.

Canon T4i

Canon 60D

Canon 7D

Canon 5D Mark II

Canon 5D Mark III

Nikon D3100

Tokina 11-16 f2.8

Tamron 28-75 f2.8

I needed a light case for my Sony NEX-7 with my 18-200mm Sony lens, the additional 10-18mm wide angle lens, spare batterry and spare SD card. It all fits like a glove in that case. In addition, it weighs only 0.7 lb which is good for an 88 year man like me.

This bag seems smaller than I thought it would be, but still large enough for everything I need it to fit.

Honest reviews on Case Logic TBC-409 DSLR Shoulder Bag

This is a small bag that works quite well for a very small camera such as an interchangeable lens non-DSLR or Sony NEXwith one extra lens along. It is light weight, compact and well padded. One of the best features is the combination of the anchor points for the shoulder strap being offset slightly toward the back of the case in combination with the zipper opening on the top of the bag. This arrangement allows one to carry the bag—with the strap across the chest—behind the arm opposite the shoulder with the strap. The top is zippered on three sides with double sliders. W hen you pull the bag under your arm so it is in front of you, the zippered top hinges away from your body so the camera can be quickly extracted along with the other lens, if needed, and you have a small suspended "bucket" in front of you to work out of while the top lid is folded out to the front and away from you. The lid can also be easily flipped back in place while the camera is in use. The offset anchor points keep the bag securely against you torso and out of the way for photographing. This is easier to do than explain but works well in a small bag of this sort. The interior dividers can be adjusted to fit different equipment or simply left out if using a DSLR.

The bag is smaller than it looks. For anyone wondering, the dimensions are: 8" high, 8" wide and 6" deep. You can fit a camera and 2 lenses in there (barely) but there won't be room for much else. (Like filters, hood, batteries, flash etc--all the things I generally want in the bag in case I need them.) If you don't need to carry those things, this bag will work well. (And I do like how it holds the camera.)

The bag itself is built well, but the side pockets are mesh and I'll admit I'm a bit hesitant to put anything in there that I don't want to lose. (They look like they could tear.)

I guess I'll keep trying to find a bag that will work, but in the meantime, this one will be fine.

This is a nice compact little bag! It will hold (2)extra batteries, cleaning cloth, A/V cable, my DSC-T100, extra O-ring kit for underwater case and lens filter.

It has plenty of attachment points if you want to avoid the shoulder strap.

No problems with shipping, but the overall price is a little steep.
