Review on ๐Ÿ“ท Black DSLR Holster Camera Case by Amazon Basics - Ideal for Photographers by Shawn Sims

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Unbeatable price

I took this little bag on a recent trip to Ireland to use as a camera holster. I really didn't expect it to last long or even work very well but was pleasantly surprised to say the least. It has endured a two week ride with various dents and scratches on the castle walls, museums, hikes, seawater splashes from the North Atlantic, light rain, mud and all sorts of abuse and still looks like new. I was looking to get a think tank holster but decided to try that first as it was MUCH cheaper and if it breaks or doesn't work I won't have much money. It's compact enough that I can carry my Canon 80D with a 17-55 2.8 IS lens attached, a spare battery, 2 spare SD cards and an OPTECH strap attached, but still climb the narrow and bulky stairwells of an old castle pass. I just grabbed the right lens and camera from my main bag in the trunk of my car or hotel, slipped it into this little holster, and set out for the day. Very happy with this little bag. If I could change that, I'd only ask for a little more headroom in the bag when a larger lens is attached, and a better suspension system inside when a smaller lens is used. But for the price I can't complain at all.

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for the elderly
