Review on ๐Ÿ“ธ MegaGear Ever Ready Leather Camera Case for Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-RX100 VI, V, IV, III - Superior Protection and Convenience by Kristen Moore

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Throwback to cases from the past

This case for the Sony RX100 II is perfect for the camera and offers all the necessary protection from the case when wearing gloves. The top half is fully detachable if desired (held by two strong latches) or can be left on while shooting (I personally take it off when actively shooting), although holding it can slow you down a bit. Path of the lens when swinging freely. Also, removing the top half when not carrying the camera adds to the overall ease of use and the delicate appearance of this great little camera. If you know old leather camera bags from past decades, especially from the 40's and 50's, this will surely stick in your memory. The overall design and feature implementation is very well done and should satisfy almost anyone interested in protecting their prized camera with a retro case that adds a touch of sophistication to their Sony RX100 II. It generated some positive feedback from those who saw it attached to my camera. This case does not fit the optional grip (from Sony and other third parties) that can be fitted to the RX100 II, but I have found that when placed on top of the camera, this case provides a very secure hold which is a secure One-hand operation enables operation. However, a note on the materials used. The case is described as a "Dark Brown Leather Camera Case". The case is not real leather but a synthetic material which I think is almost indistinguishable from real and could prove to be more durable over time. I enthusiastically recommend this case for its stylish looks and excellent protection.
