Like a Jewel... quite deserving of my camera. [Posted on 2007-07-11]
This is a tiny case, but big enough to hold my S3 with the adapter and hood in place, my 3-piece closeup lenses and my hoya filters in their cases. It won't hold anything else, but I don't need anything else usually. My tripod wouldn't fit into any reasonably sized case anyway. I normally throw a set of extra batteries into my pocket, but they'd probably fit in there too if I wanted. The perforated foam is easy to cut to hold your camera snug, though my Canon is a bit deep It still feels quite secure unless it received a hard blow from the bottom, because there isn't much foam under the camera. I can probably remedy that though. At least now I see the logic in the S3 of a twist to turn on, pushbutton to turn off! The top foam presses against the power button firmly.
I like it. It closes securely and locks if you want, but I'm sure a pin would pick the lock in about 2 seconds... it probably helps keep it from springing open.
I wouldn't check this case on its own into the luggage guy at the airport, but it would fit easily into one of your suitcases or could be carried on if they let you... haven't flown for a while so I don't know. Point is though, it's small enough to not be a problem, pretty enough not to forget and large enough to hold your essentials... and hey it doesn't have to be a camera case, it will hold anything that needs foam padding! A pistol would fit it nicely to transport to the range... a zillion other uses I'm sure. A bargain for the money and the pictures certainly do not do it justice.
A Very Nice Case BUT [Posted on 2008-02-24]
This case was much nicer than I imagined and it seemed such a bargain BUT
The measurements were given in cm which I failed to to "get" so I had to return it as it was too small but it was one sweet case. Also it said it came with a strap but the one I received was missing the strap. But if it had been inches instead of centimeters I would have kept it even without the strap.
