Camera-Case Reviews

Go to Wal-mart's electronic dept. to get a better bag for much less. I got a good Samsonite bag (which I love) for under $5.00 for my Canon A80!!! The bag I got had 3 compartments with zipper closures and can hold extra memory cards plus a backup supply of batteries. This case is basically useless unless you just want a Canon bag to go with a Canon camera.

I purchased this case to go with a Canon Powershot A80. The camera fits nicely and there is room in the little front pocket for four AA batteries OR a CF card. The problem that I really have with this case is that the sides of it don't go all the way to the closing flap. This would allow water to get into the main compartment, which stores the camera. If you only want a carrying case and aren't worried about the weather--this is a nice little case.

I bought this case for my A80. I did not want something that was waterproof, big, fancy or that had a bunch of extra features. I just wanted a simple case that would protect the camera when traveling and storing. It accomplishes these objectives perfectly.

I like the fact that the belt loop is sewed into the case. When I am at a race or amusement park, I want the assurance that there is no way the camera will come off my belt unless it completely breaks.

The inside of the case is soft and the outside is a water repellant-type material with a large velcro "snap".

You can't see it from the picture, but once opened, the case features a web-like pouch for batteries or a CF card. It will not hold both, but all I care about is batteries since I do not carry a spare CF card.

Overall, I am very satisfied with this case for the price I paid for it. It does what I want in an efficient and compact way. I bought it without seeing it in a store. After receiving it, I would have expected this to have cost around 15-20 dollars. I like it. It's just right.

I purchased this case because it was listed as an accessory for the Canon G2. Unfortunately, it doesn't fit the G2, but rather the G1. Don't buy this case for a G2 - you need the PSC-2000!

Case must be removed to access ports to the camera. Otherwise it does fit the camera, and is made with quality. I end up leaving it off, it just gets in the way.

Well maybe it was my fault that I thought this case is going to be a complete camera bag which will hold, not only my camera but also the innumerable cords and wires that come with it. I was kind of hoping for space to keep the wires, the wireless controller, the battery-pack cover and a couple of flash card boxes. As it turned out I was rather disappointed that it just covered the camera to a perfect fit and didn't leave space for anything else. Not having been able to see the product rates probably top among the disadvantages of shopping on the internet. Otherwise the case itself is quite nice, it fits the camera and just the top needs to be opened to operate any of the features including the charger and the USB cords.

I haven't felt the other disadvantage of it yet as I haven't bought a lens adapter yet. They really should have taken care of the fact that lots of users of the G1 would want to fit in a lens adapter and use, if not the wide angle or tele lenses, atleast an UV filter.

Its ok but it certainly is not value for money... not worth (price)IMO.

The camera fits well , but this is not a lether case at all. Not happy after all.

The case that gets sent is not the case shown on web site. The case sent is for the elph size camera. If you can put 10 lbs of crement in a 5 lb bag, than you it will work for you, but I can't do it. This was a waste of time and money.

The product itself fits my needs. PROS- The bag is well made, stitching is consistent and even, the sides are straight and the flap opening has a velco closure to carry extra items and still close. It has a separate compartment for 2 batteries, or a battery and memory card. The opening flap also has a hole to thread the camera's lanyard through so you can strap it around your wrist/hand. It has a loop on the back to place on your belt. The only other thing is the small metalic name plate on the front of the bag.
CONS- nothing really about the bag itself, but I do have one complaint about the actual description which is misleading! The bag is NOT LEATHER! The piping around the bag might be, but the bag itself is NOT LEATHER, it is made out of some blue synthetic vinyl material.
OVERALL-I would buy this product again, even if it ISN'T LEATHER as stated. It's well made/designed. it will protect the camera from small bumps and scrapes, and has extra space for batteries or a memory card.

TIP- Use the hole to thread the camera's lanyard through, when you take pictures, take the camera out, then close the bag up, loop the lanyard's other end around your THUMB,not your wrist. The lanyard will be longer and the bag will hang farther away from you, and the camera is still safely secured to you, just in case you drop it.

Fuji for some reason puts out useless kits to make money and this one's no different. ...

The case is generic and too big for 2650/A203/A303/A205/A210 etc. The tripod is not useable. The batteries don't hold charge for long. A useless kit and total waste of your time and money (even after rebate or any other offers). Avoid any accessory from Digipower and Fuji kits.

Fuji does have a better fitting leather case but its hard to find in stock anywhere. Brand name NiMH batteries are better found at your local store.

This kit is not worth the money unless you're getting a rebate on it. The camera bag is much bigger than necessary for most cameras and has no way to be attached to a belt. The tripod is tiny, but does do the job. It's only about 4 inches high, no kidding! The best surprise was that the rechargeable batteries were better than advertised, mine shipped with batteries rated at 1950 miliamps. That's the highest rating I've seen for AA batteries! I'm still using my first pair after almost a month of use without recharging.

Needed a case for a 3800 I bought for personal use. Priced buying all the included items seperately from a variety of manufacturers and this was competitive before any rebates are applied (none were offered when I bought). Bag is larger than needed for a 3800, but the space comes in handy for storing the camera with the protective lens cone on and any accessories you want with you (wide angle lens, filters, tripod, etc). I feel comfortable with the protection the case gives my equipment. The tripod is kind of goofy, but most that size are. It has come in handy on several unplanned occations for longer exposure night shots or timed portrates.

I need to get another digital camera for work stuff. I am getting another 3800 and this kit.

.... Although shaped to match the E-10, this case makes it very difficult to use the camera spontaneously -- and for general travel and everyday photography, this is a serious drawback.

I moved from a Minolta SLR to the E-10 -- the Minolta case is attached to the tripod screw of the camera body, so that you can quickly flip the main part of the case off and have it hang from the bottom of the camera -- i.e. out of the way. The E-10 has to be totally removed from the case before you can use it. If you try to keep it attached to the camera strap with the provided loop, it gets in the way. You can't use the camera with the entire case dangling from the rear left strap eyelet, obscuring both the viewfinder and LCD panel on the back, and making the camera hard to hold.

So, it takes longer to get the E-10 out of its case, and after that you have to either put down the case, stuff it in a bag or find some other way to deal with it while you take your photos.

In a recent trip to Tuscany I ended up leaving the case at home on most days, as the extra protection it offered meant plenty of candid shots that were missed -- and there's no point owning a camera if you don't take pictures.

Starting with my first SLR over 20 years ago, I've always purchased the manufacture's case for each one of my cameras including my new Olympus E-10 (awesome camera, but that's for another review.) After receiving the case and examining it firsthand, I've determined that while the quality is generally good, the design is poor.

Most good SLR type camera cases have two separate pieces. One piece fits over the bottom. The other piece usually snaps to the bottom piece and fits over the lens and top. The E-10 case is more like a pouch, where the whole camera fits inside. The camera is well protected and doesn't jiggle around. It's good for storing, but not pratical for an outing. The craftsmanship and leather used is overall quite good. The "Olympus" lettering is painted recessed and will probably start to flake off over time. (Some cases have raised attached lettering which is more durable.)

For the price, you could probably do better by buying a padded bag with compartments. On the other hand, if you like collecting accessories for your cameras (like me), you might want to go ahead and get it. It's a nice case, albeit over priced with only a so-so design. At the time of this writing, Olympus is offering a rebate on accessories which makes it an even better purchase.

If you have an Olympus E-10, you probably have to have this case to protect your camera. But that's the problem. Because you gotta have it, Olympus can run up the price and you gotta pay it. If this product sold for less, I'd give it five stars. Good quality leather, nice fit, a pocket in the lid for storing an extra memory card. Good stuff, bad price.

Yes, the camera fits in the bag, but that's all. I don't really know what I expected, but this bag is useless to me. What am I supposed to do, wear it on my belt? (It has no handles or straps, just a slot for your belt.) It has nothing inside: no pockets for extra memory, nothing. It's basically a piece of leather with a zipper. Useless(...)The extra battery in the accessory kit is a good idea, and it comes with a card reader as well. (Batteries alone usually sell for around $80, so this is a steal.)

I just received the case after a wait of 4 weeks due to being out of stock. It does not fit the Fuji Finepix 1400 as described. The case won't close since the camera is too big for it.

This case is great! My Finepix 1300 fits snuggly inside and protects the lens since it doesn't have a lens cap. Also the handy belt loop makes carrying the camera effortless! If you have a 1300 pick this case up.

I should have read the other reviews better before buying the bag. Kodak has a nice idea, but the bag just isn't big enough.

I purchased this bag for my Kodak Easy Share 4330 digital camera. I thought the bag was going to be a lot smaller than what I received. I already have the Kodak travel kit so I didn't need another big bag and this bag is too big just for the camera.

I own a Kodak DC215 Zoom Digital Camera. It fits very nicely into the Kodak Essential Camera Bag. I bought the bag online, and when I received it, it was bigger than I expected. The small compartment for extra memory cards is very handy, but the straps for holding batteries are pretty tight, so fastening the batteries is kind of a problem. However, this keeps the batteries from falling out. There is a small flap inside to separate the camera from cables or other elements that you might want to place inside. Tightly squeezed, I was able to fit in my camera, a Kodak Battery Charger, and a SanDisk USB Card Reader. All in all, this Camera Bag is very roomy, nicely built, and with enough space to fit what you need to carry around, if you own a small camera, like the DC215.

I have owned several Canon cameras and have always been perfectly satisfied with both camera and case. Opening and closing the EH13-L case, however, was so unmanageable that I finally threw it in the trash and bought a universal case from a local discount store. Much, much better. I can't understand why Canon would provide a poorly designed case for such a well designed camera as the EOS Rebel 2000.

Sleek and simple for nice occasions, but a bit awkward to un-snap and re-snap quickly. I don't regret now buying the case since I don't have cumbersome accessories. However, once I get a bigger lens, I will have to buy those huge lunch--box-like thingamajigs.

I bought this case for the Canon Rebel 2000 camera, and although I couldn't tell from the product description or other reviews, I ordered it hoping it would fit over the "Kit" lens -- the 28mm-80mm zoom. Which it does. It's a well-made soft "leather-like" two-piece case with a bottom part that attaches to the camera's tripod socket and a detachable top piece that snaps into the bottom. In several days of use I've found it to protect the camera (and lens) from ordinary jostling, dust, direct sunlight, and so on. To cover the camera, the top piece wraps underneath the camera body and over the lens and camera top. A small tongue velcroes in on one side and a snap at the back secures it all in place. Opening it up to take a pic is a two-handed affair measured in seconds -- it's no speed holster. And you'll have to deal with the top portion dangling from the base, as noted by one review, but for me that hasn't been a problem. I'd have given it five stars if it was priced...less.

This case looks good , but that's it the 4300 will not fit as it should. the fit is so tight the camara must be squesed in the case ,then try to take it out , it's like trying to take off a too tight boot, by the time you get it out the shot is gone.
and also moves your settings , turns on or off your camara,
toss in an extra battery and your stuck . The zipper will not close. But don't worry the seams start to unravel and split.
What a waste of money . Nikon stands for quality , but not here.

I don't know what the people are talking about with their cases being a too tight fit. I think the case fits like a glove. Snugly enough so the camera doesn't jiggle around, but not tight. I fit my camera so that the lens goes in first, and the strap is at the opening. When I need my camera I just tug at the strap while I pull the case down. It fits nicely. There's a small zipper pocket at the front for an extra card and battery. I too don't know what the small black loop is for. The case looks good and the construction is good.

The Nikon 4300, extra battery with terminal cover and CF memory in its protective case all fit perfectly in this case. There's a sewn on belt loop, so no snap to accidently open. It also has a 1" loop with a snap of which I don't know the purpose. For a small light camera such as this, I do not see the need for a shoulder strap. The price is very reasonable.
