At first I was skeptical about this product.

I was looking for a small case for my A6300 with lens that I could just slip in my husband's backpack when I got tired of lugging it around theme parks for hours. Then I found a YouTube video of Micbergsma/Goscope Alpha (for Sony A6000, A6300, A6500) and immediately fell in love with the GoScope Alpha housing. I ordered in the morning with same day delivery. Thank you Revin! My first impression is that this body is so narrow that it doesn't fit in my A6300 with a Sony 18-105mm lens and lens hood. I took off the hood and zipped it up, but I was afraid something would break inside or the zip would break. I contacted Goscope directly about my concerns and received a response from Kyle almost immediately. He assured me that this bag was designed with snug fitting nylon and neoprene and that the zip would not come undone as the neoprene surrounds the zip and is designed to come undone. Without hesitation, I put the lens hood back on the 18-105mm lens (backyard only) and used a little force to close it. Kyle advised me to leave it in the case for a few days to get the shape right, but I'm too excited to wait that long. I opened the case after just a few hours and Kyle was right! The case opens and closes much easier with my larger lens. I even attached a soft silicone camera body cover and thin camera strap (both purchased from Revain) and it didn't take too much effort to close them. I didn't stop there, I decided to keep experimenting with it. My A6300 with the 10-18mm lens attached and the included 16-50mm lens fit perfectly in the bag with no issues. I also tried a 10-18mm lens with a couple of batteries and it worked too. While the batteries rattled as expected due to the battery's small size, the addition of microfiber should fix that. I no longer doubt this product, I actually keep it. I only wore it one day and both the fit and the zipper have loosened so closing it is no longer a problem. Many thanks to Revain for the fast shipping and to Goscope for this wonderful product and great customer service.
