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.

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.

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.

This case was even better than I expected. Lots of features, very good quality, well-thought out design. For example, one thing I didn't realize when I ordered it is that there is a hidden elastic rain cover stuffed into a tiny pocket on the bottom edge -- you pull it out and over the whole case when needed, and tuck it away in its hidden little pocket when not. My Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ5 fits in quite nicely with a spare batter and a memory card or two. Highly recommended.

I recently purchased the Lowepro Apex 30 AW for my Panasonic DMC-TZ5. The fit is perfect. It has a special extra soft pad to protect the LCD screen. Very compact but plenty of room for an extra battery and memory card. It has a durable finish and can be carried by a strap or put on your belt. Very pleased!

I brought it for my Panasonic DMC-ZS3 camera. The camera fits in the bag very well, and more space for storing an extra battery and memory cards. You can even store a care reader, if it is flat model.

I believe it can fit all the cameras that are of DMC-ZS3 range. I would say, dont look further, if you own a ZS3.

I just bought this to go with my Nikon CoolPix P5100. It is a perfect fit. Holds the camera tight and secure while maintaining a compact size. Very high quality construction. Well worth the price.

This a very good case. My ONLY gripe is the that the spare batteries fall out easily when the case it open. Even then, this is well worth the money.
Fits my Canon PowerShot perfectly.

Fits Canon SX230 HS snugly, a perfect fit: snug but able to insert and remove easily -- along with a couple extra SD cards and a spare battery. Quality excellent, as you would expect from Lowepro. Slip-lock to attach to belt, or for use with the Lowepro slip-lock system. AW cover a very cool feature, surprising in a pouch this size.

I bought it for my Panasonic Lumix ZS5. Just perfect. There is only one thing that bothers me- there is only one zipper. I used to have a case with two zippers so the hand strap could stay out for easy removal of the camera, and the zippers could meet at the top of the case, closing and securing the camera inside. In this case you need to zip from one side to the end and if you are used to leave your hand strap outside, you must place the camera somehow backwards to be able to do it. The small thing though. I strongly recommend purchasing it.
