5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect Camera Bag for Compact (Mine is Panasonic TZ3), July 19, 2007

Bag is the perfect size for the TZ3, has the most protection I've found for accidental drops and includes a built -in waterproof cover. Versatile velcro belt strap (also doubles as a wrist strap) and has an adjustable shoulder strap. Very sturdy, should provide years of protection.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent case, but.., July 1, 2009

This case is excellent. You feel that the camera is safe in there, and there's enough space for a spare battery and SDHC card.

I have a Lumix LX3 camera and this case is just a little bit tight. The only problem with this case, is that you need some time to take the camera out of the case and vice-versa. When you are storing the camera, you need to fold and adjust the strap of the camera properly into the case, so you can close it. It's excellent when you are carrying your camera around, but not that practical when you need your camera a lot. Sometimes I don't take a photo because I'm too lazy to deal with the trouble of taking the camera out and store it back again.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect size, good quality, January 9, 2010

I use this case with my Olympus Tough-8000. I have a spare Li-50B battery for my camera, which fits in the small velcro pocket. I also use a micro-SD card in my camera, and have a micro-SD to USB card reader, which fits securely in the elastic/mesh pocket. At first, I had concerns that either the battery or the card reader would slip out and get lost, but both remain very secure. The large pocket for your camera allows you to slide the camera in and out very easily. The material in this main compartment is really high quality, it's very soft and well padded (though supposedly my camera will survive most anything!). I toss this bag with my camera, battery, and card reader into my pack or purse or wherever, and don't worry about any of it. This bag is a great size, is well constructed, and looks great. The shoulder strap is very adjustable, so you can carry it completely across your body or on one shoulder, or there's a belt-loop. The rain cover is a great extra feature too, though I haven't gotten to actually test the water-resistance/proof of it. I love this bag, it is much more protective than a similar bag I used to use, more sturdy, more reliable, and better looking for pretty much the same price.
