Cheap Crumpler GEA001-X01T55 Gourmet Extravaganza Camera Bag (Black)

Customer Ratings:

I own 3 other Crumpler Bags. 3 and 6 Million Dollar Homes, and the Whickey and Cox. I knew the build quality and reliability of this bag was going to be high.

The size holds everything that I need to take on a shoot. Even some Westcott Double folding umbrellas, and the dividers are the perfect size for any layout. But I could have used a few more, to get everything snug.

The thickness of the dividers is pretty thin, thinner than any of my other Crumpler Bags. But, with a bag designed for space, they had to compromise a little thickness. Though the thickness does not bother me, everything is still secure and padded.

The entire sectioning area can be pulled out and the bag can be made into one large cavity. You can use it as a luggage bag this way.

The lock on the side is very handy and the tripod holder was very well done. It even held my larger tripod, the Slik 700dx.

All in all, you get what you pay for, a very high quality and high capacity bag.

Reviews of Zensufu 4 Size Padded Neoprene Compact DSLR Camera Lens / Lense

Customer Ratings:

These neoprene cases suit their purpose, but are very smelly and the stitching is sub-par. This is especially evident on the strap that connects the plastic hook to the case. On one of the cases, the stitching has already begun to unravel. I would not trust using the hook to hang an expensive lens, because it might break at any time. Also, the large case is humongous, way bigger than I need. The free lens cap holder that's included has a short string, so for long lenses it won't work.

The bags were big for the lenses and the lens holder not a good idea the adhesive doesn't last long enough.

These bags are a great deal! I'm a documentary filmmaker and I never have enough bags for lenses and small equipment, so this set of four bags for such a low price was very appealing to me. Overall, there's nothing particularly special about these bags, they are just nice, basic neoprene lens bags with a cinch-tie closure and a sewn-in plastic carabiner hook. I am surprised that for the price, they seem to be very well-made with double-thick neoprene, a round bottom (to accomodate the shape of a lens,) and a thick nylon strap sewn into the side that holds the carabiner for added durability.

Since I don't currently have a long lens to fit the tallest bag, I am using it for my Rode NT3 mic and one of the medium-sized bags works very well for my Zoom H4N Recorder. The small one works very well for my wide-angle lens and I swap my 8-210 zoom and my 100mm prime in the other medium-size one. I have a nice Kata bag for my equipment, but it feels extra-safe to have everything tucked inside a neoprene sock in addition to the padding in the bag. If you're looking for lens bags and don't want to pay a fortune for them, this set is a really good alternative.

Honest reviews on Zensufu 4 Size Padded Neoprene Compact DSLR Camera Lens / Lense

Very good quality neoprene lens cases. I use the two smaller ones to carry my m4/3 prime and my m4/3 tele. I use the larger one as a case for my Nexus 7 Tablet

Full Disclosure: I was asked by a Zensufu representative to review this item free of charge. I was asked to give an honest review, good or bad.

I own cameras and lens of the M43 systems. Because it is a mirrorless system, the lens are very small compared to DSLR's. As a result, I only find the first two small lens pouch usable. First of all, you must understand that these pouches are used to protect the lens from scratches and bumps. It will in no way protect the lens from a great drop onto concrete, though I would say it will minimize the damage. Comparing to the pouch that came with my Panasonic Leica 25mm lens, this is a step up in protection. The neoprene material is just thick enough to provide enough padding for the lens but thin enough to be very flexible. Unlike a similar Chinese brand I bought for $4 off of ebay for just the small size, this one is softer and easier to manage. I don't use the clip, but I can see that it might be useful for people who want to clip it on to a belt or a bag. It might not be a good idea for the two larger pouches though, as I am assuming those are for telephoto zoom lens. Those lens can be quite heavy and I don't know if the clip can hold up over an extended period of time. As for the built quality, the pouches are surprisingly well made for such a low price item. If I need a pouch for my lens, then I would definitely buy these without any hesitation. However, I hope that Zensufu will offer these pouches for separate purchase for people who don't own big lens like me. I would love to buy another small pouch for one of my other lens. If you have a DSLR camera with both short and long lens, then I think this is a wonderful purchase. If you only have short or small lens, then I don't recommend you buy this bundle as the two larger size pouches are unusable because they are HUGE!!!

I have this bag for two months now and I still think it is the best camera bag for my NEX-5R. I wanted something slim and not bulky. After searching and searching, I picked this Sony for the designed. Although it is expensive because of the Sony branding but I think it is worth it. I am able to carry my basic kit setup: The Body w/Kit Len, 55-210mm zoom len, and my SEL30M35 Macro lens with the adjustable Velcro dividers. Inside the side compartment: I am able to carry extra battery with the wall charger, and other small accessories. The quality of the bag is great; after all it is made by "SONY" :P I will try to upload some pictures to the gallery.

Pros:

Compact

Plenty of room I threw in my NEX6 with the following lenses; sigma 30mm, 19mm, sony 55-10mm, 16mm w/fisheye

High grade material

Ease of adjustments

Cons:

Shoulder pad does not adequately support only a small portion of the pad sits atop my shoulder. I've tried tighten it close to my body as possible. Maybe it's because of my broad shoulder, not sure if it's me or me strapping it incorrectly.

I purchased this backpack bundle for an upcoming Cruise to the Caribbean with several ports of call. I needed something not too big, but big enough for all my gear and be flexible enough to be a shore excursion pack when I needed it to be.

I received it in good condition, before the delivery estimate, it was shipped promptly and packaged carefully with the other items that were purchased at the same time.

Of course, the first thing I had to do once I got it out of the box was grab my camera gear and laptop accessories and see if I could stuff it to the gills and then see how much room was left if any...

SIZE It is a pretty good sized bag it held my Nikon D90 with several lenses (one of them a 300mm), a couple of flashes, card readers, my camcorder, a small underwater camera, all the extra batteries, chargers and accessories and a laptop, its charger, wireless mouse and all of its goodies. That's a lot of stuff! I was amazed that three bags of stuff went into one backpack!

Now, of course, I didn't pack the kitchen sink or any cinder blocks and I left some of my less used accessories behind, but still, it weighs a ton... But at least I will be able to get it all on board in one bag! I plan on stripping some gear out of it for shore excursions.

POCKETS & ZIPPERS This thing has heavy duty zippers on all sides! I especially like the main lower compartment access on BOTH sides of the bag from the sides where the camera and lenses are stashed. It makes for quick and easy access to the camera and the most used accessories while cradling the rest of them inside the lower compartment, in Velcro dividers. There is access from the back panel for the center of the lower camera compartment as well with a zippered mesh pouch on the flip down access door I used for manuals, lens cleaner pens, etc. The upper compartment has little pouches on the sides inside to stash cables, battery packs, memory cards, etc. The laptop compartment puts your laptop (and notebooks, books, folders) against your back so you don't feel any lumpy camera gear inside the pack and the zippers are sort of a bitch to get to if you don't know where they are GOOD safety/security feature! Once you know where they are, it's easy.

"STASH POCKET" One pocket of note on the upper portion on one side, on the outside, with a Velcro flap, is a simple slip-in pocket it appears to be the PERFECT size for a passport and papers. Making for an easy place to stash your important papers when going through customs. (I wouldn't LEAVE it there while traveling, but it's a good size for a small wallet, cell phone, cigarettes, etc.)

PORTABILITY This bag has several handles on it, making carrying it "not as a backpack" a lot easier. I have used one of the handles on the side to attach gear bags with belt loops for outside storage. The one on top is heavy duty and handles the load I stuffed into it without any strain at all.

STABILITY When stuffed this bag likes to sit upright when you sit it down on the ground which I love. I hate for a pack to fall over because the bottom is shaped like an egg. It seems stable, even though it is sort of top-heavy from all the battery packs I have stuffed in the upper compartment with all the chargers. (that's MY packing job, not their problem...)

TRIPOD BUNDLE The tripod is light, aluminum and comes in its own rain-cover, a sock style case with a drawstring closure. It is a small and light tripod for traveling. It is so light duty I am a little worried about how it will handle a D90 with a big double battery grip, a 2x tele-converter and a 300mm lens... We shall see how it performs but it is sort of what I expected in a "bundle" like this. It will be good for my wife's small point and shoot, so I am more than happy with it. It attaches via a little leg pouch and adjustable snap strap NOT Velcro.

The ONLY thing that I think would make this bag better is some simple sewn in straps or loops for attaching other stuff to. Little straps or loops for Velcro straps to attach sunglasses cases, water bottles, straps for a monopod, etc... Much like I have seen on the "National Geographic" camera bags. Simple loops so you can roll up a windbreaker, over shirt or jacket and Velcro strap it to the loops or something. I will be making a couple of simple modifications to mine to hold things like this.

So far, I am happy with the purchase and my new bag I will have to see how it performs when we take the trip! It is exactly what I expected, it seems heavy duty enough and I look forward to using it. I stuffed it to the gills and there isn't much room left, but it sure swallowed an awful lot more than I expected! Thus allowing me to take it all in ONE bag!

Thanks to Butterfly Photo for being so prompt!

MP

*** AFTER TRIP UPDATE ***

We used this for our "shore excursion pack" it rocked! We stuffed a lot of duty free shopping stuff inside of it and had lots of room left over for cameras, snorkel and mask and other sundry items. It is a little big compared to the little bags other folks walked off of the cruise ship with but we weren't walking back to the boat with two arms loaded with bags either! We LOVED how this thing has all sorts of little nooks and crannies, zippered pouches and easy access to the inside via the side mounted zipper openings! The little passport pouch was good too! We used it for the GPS and the passports at every port. This pack made our trip easier!

First, I bought this hoping it'd fit my T700. I wanted it to fit like a glove as I've read other cases do. Unfortunately, I could fit two T700s in here if I wanted to. Lots of extra room.

Second, Sony obviously didn't design the strap on this case to go with the stylus that comes with the camera. The strap is too wide and though the stylus goes on, it's really not supposed to.

Finally, the "strap loop" isn't as convenient as you'd think. The strap does not easily slip through it, so it's not like you can whip the camera out of the case and the case just slides down on the strap. It takes work and seems like it's not worth it.

So, the quality of this case? Great. It's very nicely made. Just not a snug fit and not all that functional.

I purchased this cover for my Sony W220 digital camera, it is not really a carrying case as you may think, it simply covers the camera and uses a replacement strap that you attach to the camera itself. It is attractive and fits the w220 perfectly, and it is has proven to be a very nice storage cover but I would hesitate to carry this only. It is not sealed on the topof either side,it does cover the front and rear of the camera very well. To me it seams more like storage case while you keep it in whatever you may be carrying it in. Magnetic front cover works well and has a good cling, does not just flop open as you might come to expect from magnetic lids.

I think this would be a better value for less money, but it is what it is, a very attractive leather case for your sony digital camera. If it sealed the top of the sides better I would have given four stars, and if the price was about 25.00 I would have given 5.

Bought it because they had it listed with the Sony DSC-TX10 as a combo price and assumed that would mean it fits well in the case. It doesn't, the case fits great on the width, but is just a little to big on the height and way to fat for this camera. When I was setting into my camera bag last night it kept turning on and making the start-up sound. It took me a few times to figure out it was sliding enough to pull open the front plate that it would start to open make the sound, but close and go back off.

I have had a Sony DSC-T10 for years and bought a Lowepro Napoli 5 Camera Leather Case for it. It fits both of these cameras very well. I will be ordering one to replace this case. You can buy it here on Amazon also for almost half the price.

Honest reviews on Sony LCS-CSVA/R DSC Leather Carrying Case - Red

There is only one word needed to describe this product, it's "CRAP". It is held closed by a cloth elastic band that arrived fitting too loose. The case spine is too wide for the camera. You must fold it back on itself to use the camera which immediately distorts the spine of the case or loosen the thumb screw each time. It's described a being leather but the sewn in label says 65% polyester.

A good product overall, but I would probably buy the Samsonite one I had before as it had plenty of places for other miscellaneous camera items.

I wanted a smaller camera case for my Nikon D3100 that was colorful and cute. This seemed like it would do. It fits my camera with the lens that came with it, so if you have any other lens don't think it will fit this case. I had to leave my strap hanging outside of the case, I don't want to cram it in the case and take a chance of scratching my digital screen. I also like to carry the battery charger, connection cable for computer, a couple of SD cards, a pen and small notebook. I don't think that is much extra, but there is room for those and nothing more in the extra storage. So this is a close fit.

My problem with this case wasn't the size, or even really the $9.99 extra that I was charged for shipping. By the zone and weight on the package that was just over $3.50 too much for shipping. I probably wouldn't have said anything about that if the smell had not been so bad that I had to set it outside for a full day then spray it to get rid of the smell. I am not sensitive to smells, but this was strong enough that I could not keep it in the house.

So if you purchase this be aware that it is a tight fit, what looks like a good price is less than a good price when the shipping is added in, and it comes with a horrible smell.

I was looking for a camera bag to fit my Sony NEX-5N, 18-55mm lens, 16mm pancake lens plus attachable wide angle conversion lens, and other accessories. I figured, hey, Sony makes a bag specially designed for this camera and two lenses--it's probably a pretty good bet. Unfortunately, it was a bad bet. This camera bag is a disaster in every which way. Why?

1) It is flimsy both on the outside and the inside. A drop or even a light bump would be disastrous. Plus, I get the sense that even carrying it might cause the lenses inside the case to knock up against each other and scratch each other's exteriors, because the velcro divider is super-flimsy and doesn't extend all the way to the top.

2) Unlike other camera bags I've owned, there is hardly any room for the secure storage of additional accessories, such as extra memory card, extra battery, cords, lens caps, filters, etc. My LowePro camera bag has four separate compartments that are either sealed by velcro or zippers. This thing only has one on the back, which has room for approximately one or two lens caps or filters.

3) Most damning of all is that my Sony NEX-5N (the camera the bag was designed to hold) doesn't fit conveniently into the bag. It might fit okay if I were to take off the shoulder strap, flash, and the lens hood. But obviously I can't be bothered to take off my shoulder strap every time I want to store the camera. Taking off the lens hood or flash would be less of a problem, but there is absolutely no extra room in the bag to store them. (And keep in mind that my second lens is a pancake lens--if your second lens is a telephoto lens, good luck.)

4) I haven't the slightest idea how the only other reviewer (as of time of writing) managed to fit his camera, 18-55 mm, 16 mm, and 55-210 mm lenses into the bag. I could barely fit my camera (without shoulder strap, flash, and lens hood), pancake lens, and a spare battery into the bag. This left a small amount of remaining room above the pancake lens, and I could have stuffed my shoulder strap, flash, and lens hood loosely into that space. Which is bad, because you don't want things floating around in your camera bag. But my wide-angle conversion lens (which fits onto the pancake and is much smaller than a telephoto lens) didn't fit.

I really don't write many reviews, but I hope this one helps people in the market for a camera bag for their Sony alpha NEX camera and lens(es). Do yourself a favor and buy a sturdy camera bag from a company dedicated to designing them.

I've just received this camera bag and it is perfect for carrying what I want. Versatile configuration. It has three pockets inside. On the left is a fixed partition, which exactly fits my external battery charger (the kind with the slide out prongs), and a couple of spare batteries. There is a moveable partition, which velcros onto the back and front wall to divide the remaining space. If one splits the space, the 55-210mm lens can be stood in one space, and the camera, on its side (back to the right wall, for example, and lens pointing to left wall), in the other. The camera strap can be rolled up and will fit above the lens. The tele lens fits with the lens hood reversed, and even (with a bit of difficulty) when wrapped in the bubble wrap envelope that it is shipped in. This latter configuration pushes up on the lid when closed, but will work. If one removes the movable divider, the camera can be placed in the large space with the tele lens attached. In this layout, the stock SELP16-50 lens can go into the fixed partition/pocket in the left of the camera bag. There is space above the tele lens for other stuff, one can use the divider or other padding to separate the lens/camera from the other things one wants to carry. When I put the external charger in the left fixed pocket, there is enough room to add two spare batteries alongside the charger. To get a sense of the length of this bag, it would accomodate the camera with the tele lens, with the lens in the fully extended position-not that one would carry it in this position, but this gives you a sense of dimensions. The zippered compartment in back is deeper than it appears in pictures-it will easitly take SD cards, even a couple of filter cases. In fact, the supplied charger and USB cable easily fits in this pocket. All in all, this case has the perfect dimensions for packing everything I take.

The case comes with a shoulder strap that attaches to large plastic D-rings on each side. It also has a carry handle sewn on to the front of the case, a 1/4 inch below the zipper. It's a strange place to place a handle because when one picks up the case with the handle, the case turns over so the back of the case is almost parallel to the floor. However, if I put my hand through the strap, palm against the front wall of the case, strap against wrist, finger tips curled under the bottom, it works perfectly, Still, one is likely to be using the shoulder strap for any significant carrying, so this does not seem to be a big deal either way.

Build quality. Too early to tell, I just got the case today. The main zipper seems strong and has two zips, with strong pulls sewn on. The zipper mechanism itself is plastic as is the loop on it (to which the pull is sewn). The loop looks thin and flimsy and may be prone to breaking. The zipper for the back pocket is extremely fine and doesn't look like it would deal well with rushed or rough pulling.

The nylon that the case is made of is heavy duty-this is not lunch box material. There is thick padding--3/8"-1/2"--on all six sides of the case. So this will protect your gear, but maybe not from a fall from height. It is by no means flimsy, and works well for my purpose-which is to put it in my travel backpack, where it will protect the camera and gear from all the other stuff I have in the backpack.

All in all, the build quality looks good, the case is compact, but perfectly proportioned to carry the NEX3N, the 55-210 tele lens and hood, external charger, spare batteries, a couple of filters and SD cards in their cases. And its a good looking case.

This case is perfect for my Sony NEX-5N with the 18-55 mm lens AND my 55-200 Zoom lens.

I can put it in with the flash attached though it's a better fit with the flash off the camera. I really like the size of the case because it fits pretty well in a carry on bag for air travel with the essentials needed for photography and protects the camera. It is also an easy bag to carry because it is fairly small. It is well thoughout to be used with this camers with the standard lens along with the telephoto lens and an extra battery with charger.

All of these fit into this Kata KT DC-445 Digital Case (Black) with room to spare, but not too much. The case is smaller than I expected, based on the picture but ample. Well constructed and the placement of interior dividers are convenient, but not as flexible as I expected. The yellow interior is excellent and things are easy to see. Cover closes well and double zippers prevents items from falling out when open, while permitting easy access while carrying the case. Side pockets have full size section risers to also prevent items from falling out when the zippers are open. Zippers are well-made and stitching sturdy. Carry strap fits well and stays in place on shoulder. The case is VERY light, although the newer model is even lighter, but doesn't have the zippered side pockets. That's why I selected the DC-445. The warranty for Kata bags is excellent and they happen to be from the same corporation that makes the Metz flash unit products. If you want a sturdy case for one DSLR, lenses and items you need, this is a good choice. It does not have tripod carrying straps, but I don't need that feature anyway.

This review is about Kata KT DC-445 Digital Case (Black) .

My intention was to find a bag for short trips with limited amount and minimal weight of equipment.

For these trips I need camera, flash and two zoom lenses. Very important detail: My camera and I agreed that we'll never leave home without battery grip attached so bag must be wide enough to accomodate Nikon D700 + Nikon MB-D10 Multi Power Battery Pack.

My choice of lenses was Tamron AF 28-75mm f/2.8 and Nikon 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6 VR. Of course, I wanted to keep at least Tamron 28-75 mm attached and still have some space for Nikon SB-800 AF Speedlight Flash. I'm glad to report that DC-445 satisfied almost all my needs: Camera sits with attached Tamron looking down, flash and 70-300mm are very snug into their quarters.

Some spare space under camera is used for Black Rapid Straps RS4. That's it, problem solved.

However, some cons are still there: DC-445 is not tall enough to store D700 with Nikon 70-300 mm attached. Actually, I can squeeze this assembly at a price of keeping the lid zip fastener partially open. Also, I personally don't like the two-side zipper, too much fuss to open. I prefer some secure buckle to be able to unfasten it quickly in case of need.

Bottom line: Nice bag for configuration I described, light-weighted, has soft and convenient shoulder strap and last but not least: Looks neat and well shaped.

This is a very well made and well thought out bag. It holds a great deal more gear than it looks. My only recommendation is to have a quick release catch on the top so you can keep it closed without using the zipper.

Honest reviews on Kata KT DC-445 Digital Case (Black)

This is a very nice camera bag for the price.

The build quality is outstanding and the compartments are soft and have a nice feel to them.

My only complaint, and it's not really a big one is that the zippers can get stuck and need to be jiggled once in a while.

A little smoother action would have been nice, but again, not a big deal.

Great product overall!!

I first bought a Kata Bug-203 back pack on Amazon and loved the function and appearance of the bag and its high quality. But it was large and, when filled with equipment, heavy. It would be great for a wildlife expedition to carry lots of equipment including a long telephoto lens. So I decided that a large backpack was impractical for every-day carrying around and organizing equipment. Enter the Kata 445 bag . . .

I could not tell by looking at the online information how much equipment the 445 bag (or most other bags) really held. So I went to a local camera store that carries lots of Kata models in order to see for myself. I was pleased with the 445 and even more pleased after I brought it home and loaded my camera equipment into it. So far, with room to spare (it would hold two more lenses, my BlackRapid Sport camera strap, and odds and ends), here is what I have inside the bag: Nikon D800 camera body with 28-300mm zoom lens attached; 28-105 zoom lens; 28mm prime lens; 85mm prime lens; Op-Tech camera strap; cleaning cloth and bottle of cleaning fluid; spare battery; battery charger and power cord; memory card reader and cables; extra USB cable; Nikon pocket-sized camera guide;two large polarizing filters in their plastic cases; camera body and lens caps; memory cards and containers. Thus . . . camera with telephoto lens attached, plus three other lenses, plus room to spare.

I love that Kata has the same sense of quality, materials, appearance and design as Apple does with computers and devices such as the iPad and iPhone. The materials, handle, and strap are all high quality. All Kata bags have a bright yellow interior so you can quickly find your things. In the 445, the side pockets are so hidden in the exterior view that one would not realize they are there. Yet, they hold a lot of fairly flat things (they would easily hold filters and batteries).

So how do we get this room in a small package? Well, you might do it differently, because the interior dividers can be moved into different configurations depending on your equipment and sense of convenience. Here's what I did and what's in the bag before anything is inserted: There are six two-story pockets formed by the dividers. One of the center pockets does not have a "middle floor", so that the camera can lay lens-down into that space. This leaves five other "lower floor" pockets that hold my three lenses (with large lens hoods attached), plus my battery charger, memory card reader, and cables in the remaining two pockets (although they could have been moved to the outside side pockets if I had needed space for more lenses or flash units). The flaps between the "first and second floors" are such that all of the the six pockets will have a padded flap covering the lower level, except for the space filled by a lens attached to the camera body. The camera then lies face down in the "second floor". There would be room around even my D800 easily to hold a mounted battery grip, or one or two additional lenses.

And what about the inside of the top of the bag, and the sides? The top contains two flap-covered pockets (with stretch web interior pockets) that would hold many memory cards. Also inside the top, immediately below these two pockets, is a large see-through zippered pocket that holds, for example, lens and camera body caps and memory card holders. Inside one of the zippered outside edge pockets is space for documents (even a 300-page camera manual if you want) and two more stretchable mesh web pockets. I have my camera battery on one of them with lots of room to spare just in that one mesh interior pocket. The opposite edge of the camera bag has a similar zippered pocket with three interior pockets, but they are fabric pockets rather than mesh. This main zippered pocket is where I keep my two large polarizing filters (77mm and 67mm in their cases plus a bottle of cleaning fluid. I have a cleaning cloth in one of the three pockets inside this zippered compartment, and still I have two small pockets unused).

The bag is light yet sturdy (with large aluminum rings on each side for attaching the removable shoulder strap). Even with all my equipment in it, the bag does not feel heavy (much lighter-feeling that when the same equipment is in a back pack). Besides looking good, the practical benefits are that (1) my equipment is safely organized and stored (although I would not want to drop the bag on the floor--the equipment would be safer in my Bug-203 Kata backpack), and (2) the bag is so compact and light that I am much more apt to have my camera and lenses with me when picture-taking opportunities arise.

I hope this helps. I had procrastinated for a month in buying the Kata 445 because--although I liked its looks and compact size-I did not believe how much it would hold until I actually saw it. This bag goes right along side my cars and my iMac and my iPad and my iPhone as quality things that I am happy to have.

Very sturdy construction and has pockets for small accessories. Its a bit bigger than expected but will protect the camera for most hits.

I purchased this camera case for my Sony Nex-5n several months ago. It has held up through a handful of hikes in the the Sierras and a 3 month stay in Yosemite National Park. This basic camera case does the trick as a no frills protective case.

This case is made of a type of synthetic leather/pleather with netting on the outside to hold memory cards or a replacement battery. It has a belt loop on the back, and has plastic attachment points for a strap (however mine did not come with a strap.)The handle on top is durable as well.

In reality this case is best for someone looking to store their camera with the lens attached (obviously). It does not allow for any extra storage, and even the netting on the front should not be trusted to expensive battery packs or memory cards. While the Velcro stays attached most of the time, it does pop open randomly at times and drop the stowed items.

The case is soft, however it offers little extra padding. it is about the thickness of a sweatshirt with no additional padding on the inside of the bag. This means that your camera will typically shift during transport, especially if you have a mirrorless interchangeable camera system. Your camera may be damaged if it drops from a high distance. This is obviously not a guarantee however realistically, it offers more of a cosmetic protection than impact resistance.

I often found myself fumbling with the case. It is best for individuals who plan to put a strap on the case. If you are looking to use this for easy quick storage, it works great, however be prepared to carry additional baggage to hold extra lenses, filters, etc.

Overall I would buy this item again, however only for carrying my camera to family events where I did not anticipate lens changes or the need for accessories.

I use this with my Sony A65vk. It fits the kit lens in it. I only use it for an extra batt which slids onto the screen pocket in front. Other than that, I cannot bring other peripherals such as extra lens etc.

It's not bulky that's why I like it. If you have tons of accessories though, I suggest you get a bigger one.

Good quality and convenient to carry and use with my Sony alpha 65, but only with the kit lens. When I upgraded to a better Sony lens, the camera would no longer fit in the case. I had to buy another. Not the fault of the maker of this good quality case, but just be aware of you camera/lens dimensions before buying.
