I bought this lens for my Nikon 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6G ED-IF AF-S VR Zoom Nikkor Lens for Nikon Digital SLR Cameras, and it fits it beautifully with the hood reversed. It also can fit my Nikon 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6 G ED-IF AF-S VR DX Zoom-Nikkor Lens with its hood on (not reversed).
It doesn't aim to do a lot, but it does offer protection from dust and moisture (not a monsoon), mild shocks, and it can attach to belts, other Lowepro bags and cases.

The features of the product are described in other reviews, so this is a "it fits this product" review.

I was hesitant to purchase this for my Canon EF 100mm f/2.8L IS USM Macro. According to the specs, it looked like it would fit "all right" but might be a tight fit with the hood. Additionally, I already have the LowePRO Lens Case 4S... the canon fit in that case exactly to spec - as if that case was made expressly for the macro with hood attached. (So, if space it not an issue go with the 4s). But space is an issue in my carry bag and the 4S is "huge" in my book.

I'm glad i took the risk.

As you can see from my posted pics:
a) The Macro Fits absolutely perfectly WITH THE HOOD ATTACHED... like a slightly loose glove.
b) Yet, I have the Tripod Ring D on my Macro... while it fits easily with the Ring D, the case is misshapen by the Ring. (Not so with the LowePro 4S). Barring the mild misshape, it fits nicely.
c) Now for the overkill on protection - I've kept the Macro in the Lens Pouch that Canon ships with the L. Now, that used up ALL the extra space in the case. Its a tight fit.

You may not wish to put all that in your 2S (structural integrity issue maybe?), but its nice to know it all fits without too much hassle.
Canon 100mm Macro + UV Lens Filer + Lens Cap + Lens Rear Cover + Hood Reversed + Tripod Ring D + Lens Pouch.

So, while the 4S is the perfect match for all that, its very large, yet the 2S does the job nicely... like a tight winter glove.

ps. - I purchased mine here on amazon from AvidMax Outfitters(aka: sellNsend). Shipped next day with tracking! Fine transaction.

this case is much larger than i expected. it easily fits my canon efs 55-250mm lens without the hood - a little tight WITH the hood. i wanted a lens case i could put in the large, side pocket of my case logic slrc205 bag but this one is too big. however, it has a very nice velcro system so it's currently latched onto one of the small handles on my bag. the padding is very thick and should protect the lens very well.

I use this case during sports games when I have to carry a wide angle lens and a compact telephoto. With this case tied to my belt I am able to have much more mobility and the ability to change lens in ~3-4sec. Highly recommend if you have similar situation as I do!

High Quality case for protecting your valuable lenses. I use it to carry my Nikon 70 -300 VR II in my pack when hiking and skiing. It fits perfectly with the hood reversed.

This is a good quality lens case made from rugged material. It has a good amount of padding and a sturdy zippered top. The belt loop is particularly important to me since I don't like carrying a camera bag. I actually use this case to carry my camcorder which fits perfectly. Definitely a great case for lens, cameras, accessories or anything else that fits.

I bought this case to use with my Canon EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS USM Lens. I can mount the hood backwards and the lens plus hood fit perfectly in this case.

I searched for reviews that inform if this case will fit the new Tamron lens 70-300 VC USD and found none. I purchased the case based on the announced internal dimensions. Finally it was a perfect fit. The lens hood can be inserted in reversed position and the lens will be in tight fit in the case which is best to avoid shocks. I even tested the case in light rain and nothing got inside. What I like the most is the ability to attach the case to the waist belt for an easy access when I want to switch between lenses. Very recommended.

This lens case is big enough for a 70-300mm lens with just a little room left over. I also use it for 2 medium size lenses. The padding and protection is top notch. The case has places to attach other cases (or attach it to a camera case) and a belt loop on the back for putting it on a fanny pack while hiking. My day pack has a hip strap so I put my spare lens case on one side and my holster camera case on the other. I have total access while I am walking. Works great.

I ordered this for my Nikkor DX 55-300 AFX lens and it fits the case, with rear lens cap on and hood reversed. A little loose diameter-wise, but not bad. I'm pretty happy with this case. No complaints.
