2.0 out of 5 stars Too small!, July 22, 2005

It's advertised as being form fitting, and that it is. My Canon S2 IS barely fits into the case, and if I try to stuff the camera strap in too, it keeps popping open. The case does not come with a strap, only a loop I assume is intended so you can wear it on your belt. There is only a tiny pocket on the inside for extra memory cards, and as I said, the interior space is already limited. Although it is a nice looking case and seems to be of solid construction, I would advise against getting this case if you like to have space for extra batteries, memory cards, etc.

I've recently bought the Case Logic TBC-4, and it's great for my Canon S2. The camera fits into the main compartment snugly, and it's got plenty of extra pockets for memory cards, batteries, or whatever. AND it comes with a strap. I'm sure there are other cases out there that would do the trick as well, but I've bought several other CaseLogic cases before for my camcorder and my old camera, so I stuck with CaseLogic. They're good, sturdy cases, and generally at a good price.

I bought this case for my Canon S2 and I have to say that it fits the camera very well. I noticed some of the reviewers say that it is too small. I disagree, I think they used the case incorrectly. Many say that they try to stuff the neck strap that came with the camera inside the case! You're not supposed to stuff it in the case, you're supposed to leave it out so you can still put the camera around your neck while it's in the case. If you look carefully at the way the zippers are designed, you'll understand that the makers intended it to be used this way. I like that there's a little pocket inside for an extra SD card. This feature has been really useful because I just leave my extra 512mb sd card in that pocket just in case I run out of space on my 1gb SD card. So here's the overview of the pros and cons of this case for the Canon S2.

Pros:

1) Fits the Canon S2 perfect when used CORRECTLY.

2) Looks great and provides good protection for your camera.

3) Inside pocket for SD card is very cool.

4) Great design that lets you utilize your existing neck strap
on your camera.

5) The price for this quality of case is very good.
(my gf is still looking for a case like this for her Canon 20D... but they just don't make one that's of similar quality and affordable)

Cons:

1) I would've liked a small compartment for extra batteries. But I suppose most cases don't have battery storage.

Conclusion:
If you have a Canon S2, this case should work very well for you and protect your investment. It will allow you to just throw your camera in the trunk of your car with no worries about it gettting damaged during the trip. I would've given it 4.75 stars out of 5, instead of 4... if I could've.

2.0 out of 5 stars It's small, but not THAT small. There are alternatives, November 27, 2005

Most reviews here say that the bag is too small for the S2 IS. I have to refine this:
- This bag is designed by Canon for its specific camera, the S2 IS. And yes, the camera fits in perfectly.
- People complained that there is no strap come with it. Or they could not stuff the original strap (which came with the camera) in to the bag. Look, two negatives actually make it a positive. If you keep the strap with the camera and loop it over the lit of the bag, it is now the strap of the whole thing and you don't have to put the strap inside the bag. And I think that is what Canon Company meant.

Well, what I said above doesn't mean that I support this bag. Because beside the camera and the strap, you surely will have some lens, filters, batteries, charges, mini tripod... and now the bag becomes too small.

There are several alternatives. And one of the best alternative is Lowepro Edit 100, 110 or 120. They are perfect for S2 IS or other relatively large P&S cameras. They meant for camcorder, but they work. Lowepro Edit 100 is the smallest of the three and Lowepro Edit 120 is the largest. The small one will give you some extra room for batteries, filters, memory cards. The large one will give you plenty space for any accessories you have for your S2 (I'm talking about regular stuffs not professional lens, or professional mini tripod). I personally have the Lowepro Edit 120 and I can't be more happy.
