Review on πŸ“· MegaGear Ever Ready Leather Camera Half Case for Sony Alpha A6300, A6000 - Premium Protection and Style by Andrea Jackson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Exactly what I was looking for at a good price

This is a very simple but functional half case for the a6300. The A6300 is a very compact mirrorless digital camera. Therefore, it has a small handle that may be a bit difficult to hold for some. I wanted something that didn't completely cover the camera but would give me extra room to hold on to. Your number of these half suitcases on the market. some in polyurethane and some in genuine leather. The ones I've seen in leather sell for $60 to $100. which I think was more than I had to pay for. Half of the case is said to be genuine leather and costs $20. I don't know if it's real leather or not. it feels like it, but honestly it doesn't matter. The fit and finish is excellent and they certainly fit exactly as the seller says. It has a plate on the bottom (closed) so it doesn't scratch the bottom of the camera when you attach it. I've read some reviews that the brass screw holding the body to body uses a tripod hole at the bottom. I haven't found a problem with this as our tripod still works fine. this may not be the case for others. The case definitely protects the bottom of the camera and a bit of the back and of course the side where the grip is. The manufacturer uses a brass latch to open and close the battery/SD card cover. There's nothing wrong with that and I found it unremarkable. All in all, for €20 this is a good find and I would buy it again. Note, however, that these half-shells add some bulk and extra weight to the camera. This is also normal for me, since the camera is quite small and the low weight and volume do not make much difference.

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Big and bulky
