It fits the HDR-TG1 perfectly so it does a great job of protecting the camcorder while in your backpack. But the magnetic flip top opens too easily, risking the camcorder with free fall if you happen to hold the case upside down. And it is not that obvious which side is up...
It has a belt loop but no other type of attachment, so you cannot attach it to anything other than, well, your belt. Very limited in usability.

This is a very stylish case to match the tiny Sony TG1 & TG5V cameras. The dark brown leather is a nice change from the usual black and gives it a richer feel that is further enhanced by the brushed stainless accents on the sides and flap. My TG5V fits snugly and the case is semi hard which should provide decent protection. The interior is lined with something like moleskin rather than the usual felt which again contributes to a feeling of quality. In all, the case is well matched to the camera in style and quality.

However, my case will mostly be used for storage and transport in a suitcase. In use, the case as sleek as it is, adds enough bulk that the camera will no longer fit in a pocket comfortably unless you're wearing cargo pants. And that was one of the big draws of the TG5V for me. That means you're left with the belt loop to hold the camera on your hip which cam be uncomfortable for me and exposes the camera to theft given the light touch magnetic catch on the case and it looks a little nerdy as well. For most occasions, I will carry the camera in a little black drawstring bag that came with my Nikon flash. It fits perfectly, adds almost no bulk, and protects from scratches if not drops. The drawstring makes for a quick extraction from a pocket as well.

Strong enough to protect the camcorder. The magnetic flap is also a good idea to open and close the case although a times flips in such a way that I think it will open and drop the contents. This was a great buy for the camcorder!

This is a great leather bag. If you have bought the TG1 or planning to buy the TG5V, I say this is a must. When I have it on my belt, I can open it to retrieve the camcorder quite quickly with just one hand. It's semi-hard shell provides the necessary protection but does not make it bulky. Besides, it is very stylish and the finish is excellent. The price is reasonable too.

I love it; Looks great;
It has Stylishness and Elegance,
Beautiful design and very Chic;
And Very Practical for your
slim Sony camcorder;

This cary case is just perfect for the small sony camcorder we just bought. It's feels as sleek as it looks and doesn't add much weight to the total package. When we're not using the camcorder, its got a place to go, in the bag. My husband droped it (with camcorder inside) just a week after we got it. It protected the camera and came up with a few scratches that you can't even really notice. It's done a good job of a cary and portect case so far.

The case is well designed, rides on the belt, and worked well for us on a recent vacation.

A quality case for the Sony Camcorder....a perfect fit and can be attached to your belt or carried..highly recommend this product

I bought this case for my SONY TG-1 camcorder. It is very stylish and durable.It has a small slot for memory stick.This Carrying case Color is brown that matches the camcorder perfectly . I really recommend this carrying case.Worth the money.Only bad about this case is the magnetic flap opening.

This is a sturdy pouch and a must have to keep your camcorder clean & dry. Until recently I had used mine continuously at my sons ball games. Somehow I became the official team videographer and now carry extra batteries & memory sticks so I'm using a soft pouch to put it all in. I don't really feel at ease with my camcorder in the larger soft pouch. I felt it was much much safer in the carrying case being reviewed. It has a strong magnet so it stays closed yet it can easily be flipped open when needed. I'm glad I bought it.
