Review on MegaGear MG1259 Ever Ready Leather Camera Case Compatible With Panasonic Lumix DC-ZS80 by Randy Gunnmann

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Very good. Functional and beautiful, but with a few minor flaws

The cover is high quality and very beautiful. My only complaints may simply be a matter of personal preference. Not sure if it's just me, but I'd like the top half to remain attached to the rest of the case. In a way, getting it completely free might be a bonus, but if you're trying to snap a quick shot on the go, you'll have to stop and figure out what to do with that now-awkward piece of skin you really can't show it in your pocket and you don't want to just put it in it. Now that said, the other complaint is a little more serious. It mounts through a tripod mounting hole and is itself threaded so you can still use a tripod, but all the tripods I have won't connect as the latches on the bottom don't allow for a proper connection. The only way I can use it on a tripod requires me to mount it at a 90 degree angle to normal, which is not a good setting. Such a beautiful case. Quality, if you will not use, I think you do not worry. I don't regret the purchase, I just wish it was a little better designed.

Pros
  • CONVENIENCE - Convenient features make it easy to use your camera when you need it, and snapping is as easy as opening the top cover. Ideal for functional travel and outdoor use.
Cons
  • Not everything fits
