I bought this bag for my Fuji FinePix X100's street photography trips. It's light, and less-conspicuous, so definitely won't give out that 'battle photographer' image when using this bag. You also won't have to have your camera dangling in the open on your sides, so it will give you advantages, both in term of safety and 'candidness' of your potential objects.
The sling strap is the true selling point of this bag. It snaps tight to your camera while maintaining complete freedom of movement. The shoulder strap remain still on your shoulder, only the sling strap moves with the camera. You don't even have to use the bag if you don't want to (although it's a very good protection against bumps) and just use the straps.
I love this camera bag so much, I definitely recommend it to anyone using a mirror-less camera system. I think this particular model (Black Rapid RPB-3BB Snapr35) is the biggest of the bunch, that will allow (as a size comparison) an X100 with lens hood attached to be stowed inside the bag.

This bag is perfect for my sony RX-1.There are three compartments. Two on the side for extra memory card and batteries and the one in the middle for the camera.
It fits my Sony Rx1 perfectly (without the evf and lens hood)
Also the way this is designed, the camera will always be connected to the bag all the time (even during shotting( giving you a peace of mind about dropping the camera.
The ballistic nylon is very sturdy material. It's almost in par with tumi ballistic materials, which means its really good.
There is also a rubber padding on the bottom, which gives the bag a grip when placed on a table.

I wouldn't want to put a camera much bigger than the X100 in this, but this is the perfect camera bag for my X100. Try to fit anything larger, and you'll probably come back to Amazon and write negative reviews. :)Honest reviews on Black Rapid SnapR 35 Bag and Strap
I like this pretty well for my Nikon P7700. It's a bit too roomy but the smaller size was too tight.It's easy to switch between wearing the bag or just the neck or wrist strap, and I have found all three configurations to be useful. I especially like that the camera attaches at the tripod socket because this means no strap dangling in the way of your flip out screen or getting between your fingers and the controls.
This is a pretty heavy camera, as compacts go, but this outfit feels secure to me. The plastic clips seem really strong and in fact require some effort to get them open, so I can' t imagine them giving way accidentally.

I have the Black Rapid RS-7 for my DSLR and I really like it. I bought the Snapr thinking it would be perfect for my m4/3 camera. But it's not.First, the bag is useless. If I'm carrying just the camera, then I would just use the strap and not need the bag. (The bag barely accommodates an OM-D with a 20mm lens but nothing additional.) If I was going to carry a bag of any kind or bring anything else beside the camera, I'd need a bigger bag with some ability to keep the lenses separate inside. The quality of construction is pretty high. It's just that the bag proved to be kind of a goofy doohicky I couldn't find a use for. Strike 1.
Strike 2 is that an m4/3 camera is just too small and light for a single-point attachment system (the tripod socket on the bottom). The camera bounces, turns and flops everywhere while I'm walking. I was not able to find any length of strap adjustment that fixed this. And boy did I try. The camera has 2 strap lugs. Using the OEM strap or similar at least gets you a camera that stays put for the most part and lies flat against your body.
And finally strike 3, the plastic quick-release clips just aren't up to snuff. While I didn't have any failures, they feel flimsy. I would rather it have the locking carabiner like the RS-7 has. Sure, the Snapr is made for a smaller camera. But small doesn't mean cheap. If I'm going to dangle $1400 in gear 3 feet off the ground, I want more than 2 $.05 plastic clips protecting my investment.
The shoulder pad was nice. And I like the idea behind the strap. I wanted to like the whole thing but ultimately it just didn't work for me. It's going back.
