Discount Samsung DV300F DualView 16MP WiFi Digital Camera with 5x Optical
I got this camera because of it's front facing capturing ability to capture profile moments. That made my expectations but the photos are so dark because the flash would never work. I tried with the setting on and off and also went through all the other settings-such as smart auto, manual programming, slow synch-everything and the flash has never come on!! so frustrating!

I've had this case for some months now and it is great. The zippers never get stuck and my camera fits perfectly. I've thrown it into my purse with the camera inside and everything is still as good as new. Perfect case for the s80 at a reasonable price.

Easy to apply and protected my camera through two big falls. I would definitely buy another product of this type from this company.Shield is flexible plastic probably provides good protection but flexibility and installation procedure (using a liquid spray) make it very difficult (maybe impossible) to get an "invisible" application. I've installed many screen protectors (mostly made by Boxwave) and have been quite happy with the appearance and protection offered. This pliable plastic material doesn't lay as flat and sticks very aggressively. When I tried to lift the shield to remove a bubble near the edge it stretched out and didn't fit properly after that. Perhaps this material is better suited to wrapping curved and irregular surfaces; I'm sticking with Boxwave for flat LCD protection.

The case is generally well constructed and works reasonably well for putting a camera in your pocket and keeping it safe. The case is a bit snug though on some models in the Exlim series and my camera is a struggle to fit into the case. A result of the tight fit is that while in the case the power button often appears to get pushed and the camera will attempt to turn on which I do not think is good for the camera. Also, my case did not come with the clip link shown in the pictures.I bought this camera case for my new Casio Camera and I love it. It is just the correct size and padded just enough to keep my camera safe from scratches and/or abuse. I take it everywhere I go because it stays safe in my purse and it small enough to fit anywhere. You never know when you want to take a picture. Recently in a store with my grandaughter and she sat on a log and said "Nana please take my picture". Okay, Mom took out her phone and I took out my camera. Mom said "Oh Nana will take it, she has her camera". Of course my three year old grandaugher was so pleased.

Best Lowepro Rezo 20 (Burnt Orange) Deals
I got this to fit my Panasonic DMC-ZS3, and at first it seemed lit a really tight fit.
But now after some use, it works just great. That camera fits just perfectly inside the bag with the front pouch still accessible (can holds lots of extra memory cards). The inside of the case is felt, so it should protect your screen.
The color is really great as well I'm a burnt orange (earthy colors) person.
It comes with a shoulder strap, but I took that off and use the belt clip on the back of the bag.
Overall, the bag is slim so it fit nicely on my belt.
I really like this bag, and it should work well.

I have owned many cameras over the years that have all been kept safe from bumps, scratches, and the elements by Lowepro cases. Their build quality is excellent, inside and out. The Rezo 20 I recently purchased was bought solely for storing a Garmin Nuvi GPS. The GPS fits in the main compartment perfectly and the soft cloth interior protects the screen. The outside pouch, (intended for batteries) will hold 5-6 single use lens wipes that I use on the screen. Great product for a decent price. By the way... great for older gameboys too!Best Deals for Lowepro Rezo 20 (Burnt Orange)
A tight fit for my Canon Powershot SX100, I felt the velcro would have been better on the camera compartment, and the zipper on the accessory pocket. The orange version gets dirty quickly.Sunday, January 11, 2015

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 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.
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.

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.

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.

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.Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Sony LCS-CSVA/R DSC Leather Carrying Case - Red

Reviews of Rokinon Leather-Style Holster SLR Carrying Case for Nikon D3100
This seems like a pretty sturdy carrying case, although I really just got it and tossed it aside, due to the fact that IT DOES NOT FIT A D5000. It is possible to cram the camera in and stretch out the zipper, like stuffing a suitcase for a 3 week trip. My advice to you if you're buying this for a D5000, look elsewhere!!! You will be disappointed.
It wasn't listed on the compatibility brand and models, but after comparing specific sized camera is similar shaped as the shown and it fit perfectly.
Has a lot of compartiment to carry a lot of little other things or accessories.
We really enjoy it using is all of the way.

I just bought the D3100 from Amazon and I love it. I did not want an overwhelming camera bag. This one fits the D3100 with the standard 18 55 mm lens, period, It won't hold anything more although you can tuck in the Nikon strap, too. It was perfect for my needs on my recent 3 week vacation.Best Deals for Rokinon Leather-Style Holster SLR Carrying Case for Nikon D3100
Before I purchased this camera case, I did research between this case and "Opteka SLR & DSLR Camera Short Zoom Holster Case w/Adjustable Shoulder Strap". Finally I decided to buy this one, and I am so glad I chose this "Rokinon Leather-Style Holster SLR Carrying Case". I was worrying the interior size might be too small for my Nikon D40x+Nikkor 18-135mm 3.5-5.6G lens (the camera+lens is totally 6.5"L x 5"W x 3.5"H), fortunately it does not let me down. Actually I can put the camera straps in and even an extra battery! Shipping is fast too! Great little case!

Cheap Canon SC2000 Soft Carrying Case for select Canon Camcorders

List Price: $80.00

I purchased this camera bag to go along with the Canon HG10 camcorder. The bag is very nice in that it has multiple internal compartments and pockets, as well as external zipper compartments on every side of the bag. Also, it has a false bottom inside the bag which serves as a cushion in case the bag is dropped, but it can also double as additional storage space.
Initially, I too noticed that the bag is much bigger than necessary for carrying such a small camcorder as the HG10. However, when it arrives brand new, there are rectangular foam pieces in each zipper compartment to prevent it from losing it's shape. I simply took one of these foam pieces and trimmed it to fill the extra empty space around the camera in the main compartment. Now the camera fits in nice and snug with additional foam cushioning surrounding it.
With all of the space, pockets, and compartments, I am able to fit the camera and every possible accessory into this bag. Currently I am carrying the camera, the power cable and AC adapter, 2 spare batteries, a mini-tripod, the USB cable, the standard A/V cable, the HD component cable, the remote control, and the product manuals, and there is still a lot of empty space and empty pockets. Luckily, the HG10 does not require media since it is hard-disk based, but there would be ample room to carry mini-dv's, DVD's, or any other blank media if the camera required it.
All in all I think it is a great bag and it fulfills all of my camera and accessory carrying needs.
So, if you want it just a small carrying case for a compact camcorder, it's not for you.
If you are like me, and love to carry everything even when you don't need it, this it a great purchase. Great materials, protects perfectly your camera, and lots of pockets and spaces to fit stuff. All the spaces are flexible, so you can fit different stuff without having them scratching each other.
The bag's interior compartment is well padded and contains an adjustable velcro center divider, a zippered storage pocket and a Velcro tabbed side pocket suitable for lenses and cleaning materials. The three zippered external pockets are very roomy and easily accessible. There's also a hidden storage area located on the bottom of the bag that I find ideal for storing my shotgun mic and other less used items.
I like the zippered pullback style top flap and find that the bag, while not overly large, contains plenty of storage space for items that I need on remote shoots. The provided shoulder strap is comfortable and easily adjustable. All in all a very well constructed bag that more than satisfies my needs.

I've used a great many camera and camcorder bags and I'm very pleased to say that after living with this bag for several weeks it's everything that I hoped for.

I searched high and low for a reasonably priced bag for my new Canon Vixia HV30. Initially, I purchased the Lowepro 110 and could not get any of the connection cables, manual, or chargers in it. I then found this bag, the Canon SC2000. It came today and I quickly unpacked it and transferred everything from the 110 AND the small box of accessories that would not fit inside the 110 into the Canon SC2000. Oh, happy day! My Hoya lens pouch, Hoodman 300, 2 cables, adapter and cables, home and auto chargers, 2 batteries, lens cleaning fluid and cloth, HV30 camcorder, 10 mini DV HD's, a head cleaner, manual and included CD, 2 SD cards, a tripod mounting accessory, and a pack of LCD protector sheets nestled comfortably inside the storage compartments with one side pocket still uninhabited! Being the recent proud parent of the HV30, this bag holds everything I need but the tripod!

Nice case!!! Very soft and great strap support which is adjustable. Case has a false bottom with a hard plastic piece which allows for storage of cable and the owners manual. This case does have adequate padding and support for a small consumer camcorder and Mic, i.e. DM-50 that will fit snug on the inside top shelf. Wide and Telephoto lenses would need to be stored on the outside pockets. Plenty of room for extra Mini-DV tapes and batteries and filters if you have them.Wednesday, December 3, 2014
Micro Trekker 100 Camera Backpack by Lowepro Review
Little smaller than Lowepro 200 (which is $15-$20 more than this) but easily accomodate a SLR kit. I've packed following in my Lowepro 100 :
Canon 10D body with 17-40mm f/4 L lens attached
Canon 420EX Flash
Canon 55-200mm USM lens
Canon 50mm f/1.8 prime lens
Some more small stuffs like Omini bounce , charger
Apart from this you could keep all you flash cards , wires in the front zip.
Sorry but you can't accomodate any more stuffs in the bag. If you have more lenses or body then you should go for Lowepro 200. But I belive most of the ametures use to have a body + 2lenses+ Flash. This bag should be perfect for that.
High quality materials.
Cons : So far I've not found anything
Overall, I would recommend this bag for a normalor smaller-sized person for the above reasons. The features and quality easily make it a "5" rating, and it absolutely fits what it says it does. But I'll probably have to look for a larger bag just to fit my frame even though I don't need the room.
After I put my Canon EOS 20d with a 70-300mm lens on it, there is room for 3 medium sized lenses. (Alternative combinations are possible such as two lenses and a flash, or another SLR body and two lenses.) There are also small pockets which are good for memory cards, manuals etc.
It provides cushion with enough padding. It is comfortable to carry on your back.
I bought this one because it is small, and has just enough room to fit my Canon Digital Rebel XTi, as well as a wide angle and telephoto lense with no problem. There's still room for at least one more lense and a small flash, if I choose.
This unit also has numerous pockets for CF card and battery storage and all the inside compartments are velcro, so they can be adjusted to suit any camera or user. I keep the lense part of the camera bay long so no matter what lense is on the camera, I can put it away quickly.
The outside of the bag is water repellent, although I haven't tested the effectiveness of that yet. I'm from the Northwest, so I'll get plenty of chances when I return from Iraq.
Another review mentioned the chest strap almost being a neck strap...I can see that, as it does ride high. It is somewhat adjustable though, although their range of adjustment really should have taken it lower down the straps. I adjusted mine all the way down and it made it better.
All in all, I highly recommend this camera backpack. I've had a few Lowepro products before, and they are normally very well thought out and made with very good quality.

I bought this to carry my DLSR and a tele lens, and the usual accessory stuff. I wanted to keep it small and minimal for day hikes and this one does that very well. It's very well made and fits everything nicely and I would be completely happy with it but for one thing for us big folks (I'm 6' 3"), the pack just doesn't fit well. I can't use the chest strap (which I really need for the hiking bit) because the bag tends to ride lower on the back for me, and that puts the chest strap at my neck. The lower waist strap is just not useful for me for the same reason.Overall, I would recommend this bag for a normalor smaller-sized person for the above reasons.

This bag is a great fit for those of you with the Canon Digital Rebel XT, plus an additional lens. My camera with the kit lens fits nicely, along with my Canon 50mm lens. The pockets in front and up top hold other small accessories such as the charger, cables and memory cards. If you're looking for something roomy, you should get a slightly larger bag.

I was tired of using a backback since I would have to put it down to access the insides. Backpacks are great since they give you access to everything at once.
I wanted a location bag that would swallow two camera bodies, a 24-70 2.8L, 50mm 1.4, 3 pocket wizards, 2 Canon 580ex flashes, a Sekonic 558 light meter, my 15" Macbook Pro, and accessories. You'll want a shoulder bag if you want to have access to your gear on the go. I looked this up on google and saw a video of how much this thing packed and that is what convinced me.
This bag is very deep, so you might want your lesser used items towards the bottom.
The material is of high quality, and the bright orange in the inside makes it easy to find your gear in the dark. I would highly recommend this bag.
The only problem with that is the bag is incredibly small on the inside when compared to what it looks like from the outside. There are several areas where the designers got it almost right, but no cigar.
The main camera compartment will not take my 2 bodies with lenses attached. For one thing the viewfinders stick either into the laptop compartment or out towards the outside of the bag, which in turn does not let the top of the camera compartment close properly, which means the main outside flap does not close well. You can even see in the product pictures that one of the cameras has its viewfinder bulging out. This area measures 13"W X 5"D X 11"H, about 715 sq. in. I took off for the rounded corners which only make the curved space unusable. In comparison, my Lowepro Slingshot 200 has 624 sq. in. in its main compartment, and its all accessible, as well as the bag being $200 cheaper. My Pacsafe duffel with the photographic insert, which I would not carry around but it's good for transport, is less imposing than the Crumpler, but has a whopping 1760 sq.in. of space, all of it usable as it loads from the top.
If you `stack' your equipment as they suggest, you'll find yourself taking everything out of the bag, and removing all of the dividers to get at the bottom. Then of course you need to put everything back, and the dividers are a pain as they stick like glue to anything. I bought a new lens and that with the body attached is 13" long, the bag is 11" deep, doesn't fit. Speaking of dividers, they are a puzzle to figure out, I never have. The bag comes with a complete extra set, I assume for a second camera. This would all be easier if Crumpler supplied some diagrams for different configurations.
So, what I do is put the tripod (Gitzo traveler fits without the head on) on the bottom of the inside, put a layer of dividers in, then put the camera in across instead of vertically. I can at least carry my tripod and camera with long lens somewhat stealthily but nothing else will fit in the bag. Not even a tiny lens.
Putting anything in the top area (shown with the mesh) causes the flap to not fit square, and the handle will no longer be at the top but at an angle. Nothing will fit in the back pocket, I had to force an Elastolite reflector in there with the rain cover. The tripod holder is on the bottom, which might be OK for a backpack, but whenever you set this thing down it falls over. I tried putting my tripod on the front, but then when you open the case it falls to the grund if you're not careful. Supposedly it holds 18 CF cards, I could get only 4 in, the pockets are too small for any more unless you take them out of their cases, no thanks. The bright safety orange interior is great except that when you close the bag, the side flaps stick out, acting like a beacon to potential thieves that something good is inside.
I don't know how they made that video, although I save seen a magician pull rabbits out of his hat. I do know that their pictures are all of an open bag, as it would be miracle if you could close it, and if you did it would look bloated like a pig.
The quality is great, hence the 2 stars, but I'm really disappointed that I had to carry an extra camera bag on the plane because my equipment wouldn't fit in this bag, not even close. I'm even more disappointed that I can't walk around with 2 cameras ready to go like it shows in all of the pictures.
i should have returned it when I had a chance, but I was on a deadline and frankly tired of shopping for a bag. Do yourself a favor and go to a store and look at this bag, take your equipment along and see if it fits before you buy it.
Edit 6/15/11 I finally decided I needed use this bag for something so I took an Xacto knife to the innards. I cut out the laptop pocket so I now have enough room to fit a full size dSLR with a battery grip on it. I found out that the interior pieces are lined with a hard plastic so I cut those out also. The top now closes right and there is a lot more room in the interior. I also added Velcro panels where the bag closes so I don't have to use the straps to keep it closed. I think it may require more surgery, but I'm not sure yet, I'll have to see how it breaks in.
In retrospect, I suppose that I could have guessed that this bag was a poor ergonomic choice. It certainly was an expensive mistake. I'm thinking of replacing it with a Kata D-3N1-22, and only breaking out the Crumpler for flights where I need to fit my camera(s) and MacBook in one carry-on item.
Pro: It is big enough to carry lots of photography equipment including a laptop. It is a considerably light bag, compared to other similar sized bags. When one carries so much equipment the weight of the bag makes a difference. It seem strong and made from durable material. pockets can be suited to fit your needs-a GREAT feature+ many built in pockets makes the bag very comfortable.
Cons: The fold down flap is the only protection for the equipment and its not zipped. It was better if a zipped flap would seal the equipment against wind and dust particles for example. No quick access to equipment-you have to open the main flap and if you have a tripod attached below the bag, it would not be very convenient. Price is high.
Altogether, I highly recommend this bag. This definitely a quality product.

I've been using this bag for about 6 weeks now, both walking around the city and taking it on a photo trip. I bought it as it seemed to be the only bag that met carry-on restrictions, would fit most of my equipment, and make it easy to access 2 cameras with different lenses on them instead of swapping lenses all of the time.The only problem with that is the bag is incredibly small on the inside when compared to what it looks like from the outside. There are several areas where the designers got it almost right, but no cigar.

This bag is huge. it's perfect. but it's huge. totally customizable. i got it because i've got the 17" MBP that i need to haul around. but it totally houses my Sony A1U, Nikon D70s, 17"MBP and lots of accessories. good for carry-on size. just watch out that you don't whack someone with it as you're walking down the aisle of the plane!Honest reviews on Crumpler The Brazillion Dollar Home
I purchased this bag a number of months ago and have used it quite a bit since then. I call this bag unbalanced, because I find it cumbersome to use. It can hold a lot of items, although like some other reviews I find its top loading a nuisance. In order to use its large capacity, you have to use dividers as flaps, and it is difficult to access bottom items. Also, the use of many dividers reduces the available volume. I also find the outer compartment to be very tight I won't put my speedlite there because I am concerned it would be damaged. The bag is, in my opinion, a high quality construction, but not as well thought out as I would have hoped. I went with the messenger style to allow access without setting down the bag, but I think it's too large to be used in that style. When I do have everything loaded in the bag, including a 17" MacBook Pro, the bag is very heavy and uncomfortable as a shoulder bag.In retrospect, I suppose that I could have guessed that this bag was a poor ergonomic choice. It certainly was an expensive mistake. I'm thinking of replacing it with a Kata D-3N1-22, and only breaking out the Crumpler for flights where I need to fit my camera(s) and MacBook in one carry-on item.

Review of Case Logic Digital Case 2 with 6 Media Carrying Pockets
As my collection of Compact Flash cards accumulated, I realized I needed a way to store them where they would be safe and I would be able to access them quickly. I found this inexpensive case to be perfect for my needs. It can carry six memory cards in individual pouches, zipped into a Koskin (faux leather) case.
I can drop this case into my camera bag and feel confident that all my cards are safe and accessible. It also has a loop to allow it to hang it from a belt. I like being able to carry my cards on my belt, so even if I am away from by bag, I have ready access to my spare memory cards.
I don't remember where I learned about this trick, but I follow a practice of placing cards that are ready to use face up in this case. When I fill up a card, I remove it from the camera and place it back into the case face down. That way I instantly can tell which cards have free space and which contain images I need to upload to my computer.
Cases made of metal or hard plastic may offer slightly better protection from impacts and moisture. Still, I've been using this case for a couple of years without a problem. Considering the low cost and the ability to keep my CF cards organized, I think it represents an excellent value.
This card wallet does exactly what I need it to holds cards securely and allows me to access them quickly and silently.
While there are other wallets out there, the majority of the ones designed for pros close with velcro which is the most obnoxious noise in the midst of a ceremony.

The case is very compact and easy to carry. It is made of soft vinyl and easily holds 6 media cards. The only down side to this small case is the cards must be out of their plastic cases in order for the vinyl case to fold easily.Honest reviews on Case Logic Digital Case 2 with 6 Media Carrying Pockets

This is a very attractive leather case for SD cards. The leather is quite nice and features a strong zipper. Inside there are pouches for your SD cards big enough to keep the cards in their plastic container, if you want. Well-made!Thursday, May 29, 2014

As I'm sure many people have (and would, hopefully this review can change that), I bought this little pack along with my new Canon Powershot SD780 IS so it wouldn't get ruined.
First off, this is a generic little pack that is not specialized for the SD780IS--the case is a little too large, and the screen protector is about double the size. The case is alright if you pack a few things with it; otherwise your camera is going to get knocked around pretty badly. The screen protector, however, is not worth the price. It's way too large for the screen, so you'll have to cut it yourself. If you mess that up, it's worthless.
Covering the entire back of the camera wouldn't work too well and there'd probably be a bit of glare.
Don't make the mistake of buying this pack. The case has a bad size and the screen protector is worthless. $5 would be alright, but add on shipping and it's a complete waste of your time.
This is not the type of camera pouch, however, you would want if you spot a good photo op and need to get the camera out ASAP. You have to unzip the whole clamshell from end to end and it opens flat out. If you do this in a hurry, there is a significant risk of dropping things you placed in the inner pocket (this always happens to me, and I once dropped a battery into footdeep snow!)
Overall, an OK product, but a great product for the price..!

I bought this case for my Canon Powershot SD780IS 12.1 MP digital but it didn't work perfectly. The case didn't protect my camera from shock. Besides, it was too big for Canon SD780IS. Once you put your camera inside it, you could hear that the camera is moving back and forth. So, I returned the item to the seller. Until now, they still refuse to refund me fully, I don't know for what reason. My advice, don't ever try to buy from this seller if your camera like mine. It would be very disappointing experience for you!!!Honest reviews on Black Zipper Eva Pouch Carrying Case + Universal LCD Screen
This is the type of camera pouch you would want to keep your pricey point-and-shoot digital camera in. I don't know what this is made of, but after a few hiking trips and being stuffed in luggage, the outer material has yet to show any scuffs or scratches. The inner material looks to be microfiber and will not scratch your camera. There is a velcro holder inside and camera stays snug, and may survive a drop once inside this case. There is also a little extra pocket inside for additional batteries or SD cards. This pouch also has a very useful steel C-Clip, which attaches to your belt or bag strap.This is not the type of camera pouch, however, you would want if you spot a good photo op and need to get the camera out ASAP. You have to unzip the whole clamshell from end to end and it opens flat out.
