average case. there is a pouch for the extra battery but it doesn't secure it well. I lost my spare battery; when i pulled the camera out the spare batter must of slipped out as well.

I love this bag. It arrived in the mail today, and I delighted with it.

The quality of this bag surprised me. The body is made of blue canvas that does not stretch and is acceptably thick. The strap is woven canvas and all the accents are in brown leather (though probably fake leather). The flap that closes the bag has both buckles and hidden snaps, so though the buckles are real, you don't have to undo them every time you open the bag. A zip-top under the flap ensures that your camera does not fall out of the bag. There are two open-top pockets on the front of the bag, a small one one each side that both snap closed, and a large open pocket inside the back panel of the bag.

The camera-bag insert actually comes out, so it could be transferred to another bag easily. I may occasionally take my camera supplies out of the bag and use it as a bookbag for college. The insert has room for a decent-sized DSLR body and two lenses. There is one divider that is secured in place with velcro. The entire insert is padded with thick foam and has a velvety covering; it's deep brown.

Though bright blue and very chic, nothing about this bag even hints that it is holding expensive camera supplies. A great blend of fashion and functionality, I would reccomend this bag to anyone---although it's so great, I am tempted to keep its origin all to myself!

Shipping was much faster than anticipated. The bag arrived a week before the estimated delivery.

I bought this bag for my Sony cam. I am just getting into photography more and needed a bag to carry everything but still look stylish. Perfect for my three lenses, camera and extra accessories, and still have room left over! Quality of bag is great, for the price you can't beat it!

First of all, I disagree with the reviewer who panned these because the flap closes inward. That is exactly as it should be to prevent it from snagging and being opened unintentionally. Access is very easy and any slowdown due to this configuration would have to be measured in milliseconds.

I replaced the strap that came with my Nikon D5100 with a heftier one that is 1.5 inches wide. These pouches fit fine, but it did take some effort to maneuver the buckle through it. The D5100 remote came with its own chintzy sleeve, so I'm using one of these for SD cards and the other for the remote. I decided to also order the battery version of this pouch OP/TECH USA 4701202 Battery Holster Black to keep a spare in. The D5100 battery measures 2" x 1.5" x 0.5" and fits comfortably, though snugly in these media pouches, so I wouldn't get them for anything larger. Since the battery version of this pouch sells for the same price, but only as a single pack, I assumed that it's probably somewhat larger, so I ordered it. Not so. The "media" and "battery" versions are 100% identical, except that the latter is renamed and sells for twice the price.

So if you need anything larger than the media pouches, forget the battery version and look elsewhere. I recommend these, but don't be duped into buying the others at double the price. 5-stars minus one for deceptively marketing the other option.

It took just the right search terms to find these thingsI couldn't imagine nobody had created this, but it took me a while to find them. They are exactly what I wantedneoprene and small. One holds my backup SD cardI always worry that I will leave my SD card in the computer and run out the door without one, so have been wanting this to keep one permanently in there. I can get the SD card in its case AND my 46mm lens cap in one, and I can get the backup battery for my PEN digital camera in the other. I sort of disagree with the gentleman who thinks the opening should face outthe flap is easy to reach and will keep something from accidentally pulling up the flap and you losing something. So I personally think the flap facing in is a good thing.

The worst thing about these is that you have to unthread and rethread the camera strap. Arrrggghhthat is always difficult for me. But you def want them on there that way so they don't fall off.

I no longer have to worry about taking my bag or leaving the two most essential backup items for my camera.

The Op/Tech media pouch could have been a great product, but something isn't quite right with it.

The materials are fine and so is the build quality: one side is neoprene, the other velcro, and everything holds up nicely. The velcro face has both the loop (through which the camera strap is threaded) and the flap to the little compartment that holds the spare media card or battery.

Herein lies the pouch's flaw: the loop and the flap should be on opposite sides, not on the same one. Its current construction makes it difficult to quickly open the flap and grab the card or battery because the camera strap gets in the way every single time. Furthermore, there's a whole lot of velcro there, which makes everything stick.

The result: this simple task turns into a two-handed operation, sometimes demanding that the camera be put down. This sort of defeats the media pouch's purpose, doesn't it?

One final detail: the pouch is awfully tight for the Olympus BLM-1 battery (for the E-5xx and E-30).

I love the concept, but the final product leaves something to be desired. Or designed.

Honest reviews on OP/TECH USA Media Holsters

I ordered this product knowing it would be handy and in truth its a great idea. I also ordered the matching batterey holder too. Both arrived both are sold by same company. But the batterey holder is made in the USA and the card holder is made in China. The quality control in China is sadly lacking. The straps where the velcro are adheared too are too short thus keeping you from getting a secure fit and in addition the quality of the velcro must be less as well because they dont stick well. Returning as junk. In fact the batterey holder is only slightly larger then a card holder so why have both it will easily work as a card holder too. Make them all in the USA if you can. If you can do one you can do both here.

I was concerned that these would not work due to the negative reviews. This is not the case. The strap/belt loop is stitched in so you have to thread your strap through it, which will prevent it from releasing from the strap. There are also complaints that the flap closes towards the strap. I personally like this, since there is less chance that you will snag the flap on something. And for me personally, it is easier to open and pull the contents out if it is facing towards you.

Update: I have put these on two of my cameras one being the G15 (great compact camera btw), which I normally take with me everywhere on a quick disconnecting neck lanyard. These media holsters are small, durable and most important lightweight, which is important if you are wearing a camera around your neck all day. I am going to order two more.

it is not soft, probably to protect the camera very much, but i actually bought it as a small handbag to put my wallet, mobile, keys, glasses, and additional mobile battery, mobile headset, so many things to be inserted inside my jeans pocket, so i decide to buy something small from Samsonite, and i found this one, it fit, but hard to manage, because i think its purpose to protect the camera, not to hold stuff like mine, to be fare it deserve five stars for its purpose, but for my purpose its only four stars, i couldn't find something else actually

Got a spare battery and an international charger with a case for $10 can't complain, the case is a tight fit

Click Here For Most Helpful Customer Reviews >>

Well not a whole lot to report about the battery, it fits properly appears to charge normally and so far the capacity seems about the same as the OEM one.

The charger is of a semi universal type where the charger base is designed to accept a battery specific adapter. I have three of these. All the same bases output voltage / amperage.

The case is well made and it is semi ridged so it offers slightly more protection than a soft case. However for my Samsung WB-150 barely fits and the inside Velcro strap doesn't line up with where the gap is around the lens. If your camera doesn't have lens that sit above the body, this case would be fine.

Price can't be beat. Worth the purchase.

This is exactly what I was looking for. I have a Nikon D90 and find the case that comes with the camera to be too big and bulky to carry around. This is so great because my D90 fits perfectly in here with a standard short zoom lens on. Then when I'm out taking photos, and I want to switch between lenses, my 70-300mm lense (by itself, not on the camera) will fit in the bag for storage. Love the color too.

LowePro site and reviews here on Amazon would lead one to believe this will work for a D90 with the kit zoom. I can get it in the bag, but it's way too tight. Gonna have to send it back and get the next size up. :-(

This bag is a perfect size and offers all the protection I need for the camera inside.

The included rain cover is nearly perfect. For some reason, the makers of the bag designed the rain cover to only be fully in place AFTER you unclip the shoulder strap. It's not ideal but I can make do with a small portion of the bag being vulnerable to the rain.

I travel as lightweight as I can, but I don't skimp on protection for my Nikon D7000 w/ a 35mm lens. I have this bag attached to my backpack straps with two carabiners. The padding is perfect, but there's no extra space wasted (which means it's lightweight.)

The back rides up front with me all day when I hike, and it works perfectly. I have the Zoom version for longer lenses, and it's just as good.

I like this bag. I don't think you want much extra space for a camera bag (ie your camera bouncing around in a bag), so this is great. I don't have extra lenses, so this is just the nice compact case to protect my camera. If you want to carry a bunch of accessories, this is not for you. I like that it is small enough I can stick it in my larger purses, so it doesn't scream "I am carrying an expensive camera."
