The guys at Lowepro really know what they're doing. They've put a lot of thought into a simple little case like the 1S. For sure, it's not your average lens case. Here's some of the highlights listed with my comments:

1) OverLap zipper guards - When you unzip the case to open the case, you'll see a large overlapping foam flap next to the zipper. The designer's idea was to keep the line of the zipper away from the interior of the bag, and instead next to this overlap, thereby further protecting the lens inside from dusts, dirt, etc.

2) Reinforced SlipLock - One of the most thoughtful features of LowePro cases, designed for any other LowePro bags with SlipLock ability. This is a wide, reinforced flap with double sided velcro locks, making the attachment to another bag /belt very, very secure. Yet it's very easy to remove when needed. This works well with the LowePro Street and Field belt.

3) Built-in lens cap pocket - Right under the top flap is a mesh to hold your lens cap. With the OverLap zipper, it makes it a tight squeeze to get your lens cap into there, but still it's nice to have this feature.

4) Shock-absorbing open and closed cell foam and padded base

5) Tough, water-resistant outer fabric

Fits: Short, wide lenses including 28-90mm f/4 zoom, 60mm f/2.8 micro and 28.mm f/2.8 (all without hoods).

Inner dimensions: 3D x 3.5H in.

Overall, this is a very a well designed bag. You'll get your money's worth.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Lense Protection For Modular Setups, April 23, 2007

I love the Lowepro Lens Cases and I own 2 of them already. My first was the Lowepro Lens Case 1 which I use to house my Canon 100mm Macro lens (a bit of a tight fit but it works). The Lowepro Lens Case 1S is a perfect fit for the Canon 18-55mm kit lens that came with my XTI. Since I've opted for a messenger bag to hold my gear instead of a traditional camera bag, the Lowepro cases have been the perfect option to keep my lenses safe in my bag.

Perfect fit for Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM prime lens. I always by Lowepro lens bags, they are well manufactured and of high quality. It gives the peace of mind that your lens investment is receiving the best protection possible. Worth the money.
