Great case for minimal use.

Overall the case is great for minimal use. It arrived on time and very well packaged. The case is not thick at all. It's super soft and light. It is made of neoprene, also known as polychloroprene, one of the first synthetic rubber products ever made. It is generally stronger and harder than natural rubber and more resistant to water, oils and solvents. The case I received is red although they have more colors for your taste. The bag has a velcro to open and close the bag. It also comes with a carabiner (clip) if you need to attach it somewhere. I don't use this feature as I don't trust this clip with my $1200 camera. It's also very small, so the weight difference doesn't seem to add up. Normally for big and heavy things you want a bigger carabiner, not the other way around. The case also has a small pocket, very small, I usually put extra memory cards in it just in case. The quality of the zipper is not the best, it mostly doesn't open and gets stuck and also looks a bit cheap. The case is great for everyday use, protects against dust and light drizzle, but I wouldn't trust heavy rain. The products fit my Sony A6400 perfectly, I have some difficulty putting them on, but the case is a bit flexible. I can pull it up a bit so it's over my camera. It usually hooks onto the screen and pulls it up, preventing me from fully deploying the camera, but this is an easy fix. I love the bright red color, it makes it easy for me to find my suitcase on the shelf. I think it's good for traveling light. Just be careful not to bump into the walls and bump the camera into things. This case protects them from scratches, but no one wants to bump their camera, especially when you've spent a lot of money on a camera. The case won't withstand falls either, so be careful when using it. Don't drop the camera, this case will not protect it. Always make sure you have the neck strap or hold the strap and/or camera while using this bag. Overall, it protects them from dust and direct sunlight that can damage the camera over time. Great for light travel.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Overall OK, but...
