3.0 out of 5 stars Disappointed, July 18, 2002

By

This review is from: Tamrac 5696 Digital 6 - Digital/Photo/Video Bag (Black) (Electronics)

Originally purchased a LowePro TLZ Mini for an Olympus 2100UZ based on recommendations at [another website]. The TLZ was well constructed, but, in my opinion, camera compartment seemed too large to adequately support/protect the camera. Decided to keep looking.

Discovered the Tamrac Digital Series 6 bag during an online bag search and ordered it. Seemed like it would be a better fit based on Tamrac website info - despite other opinions posted below. The Tamrac is a little smaller and, to me, a better fit for the camera than the LowePro. It appears that I can store the camera and an A200 teleconverter in the bag. Didn't anticipate this. Camera can be stored in the bag on it's back (LCD on the bottom) or opposite direction (LCD on the top). I would expect to do the latter with the A200 stored at the bottom of the bag alongside the lens barrel.

However, the Tamrac does not have the structural rigidity of the LowePro and amount of padding is noticeably less. Four elasticized loops exist in the inside of the front pocket for battery storage, rather than separate pockets for smartmedia storage and battery storage, as pictured on the bag at the Tamrac website. Not pleased with the fit of the bag flap when flap is fastened down and carry handle is used to carry the bag. Big gap exists, roughly 1.5", between bottom of bag flap and top of camera further emphasizes limpness of this bag compared to the LowePro.

Tamrac fit is better for the 2100UZ, but LowePro construction is better. Anticipated on keeping the Tamrac, until I saw the LowePro Nova Mini when I returned the LowePro TLZ Mini. Decided to get the Nova Mini and I've been very pleased. Like the construction and rigidity of all LowePro bags. The Nova Mini is a little larger, but camera is safer and I can carry AC adaptor and A/V cables that I previously couldn't.
