Review on πŸ“· Protective Black Carrying Case for Sony Cyber-Shot and Alpha NEX Cameras - LCSU21 by Ricky Pee

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent bag: quick opening; fits cameras up to 5.5 " x 8 " x 5 " rectangular

I've been looking for a long time for a camera case with two very important features: First, and this is an absolute must, I wanted a bag that opened with a quick release buckle so I could get to my camera quickly and not have to fiddle with zippers; Second, I needed a compact and beautiful case that would fit my Panasonic Lumix FZ1000 camera well. The bag meets all these requirements. My Lumix FZ1000 is an in-between size. When mounted on a base, it is 5.5 inches wide, 7 inches long from the back of the camera to the front of the hood, and 4 inches high. This bag offers a near-perfect fit, but is approximately 1 inch longer and can hold a camera up to 8 inches long front-to-back. This bag opens and closes with a strong quick release buckle that allows you to get your camera out much quicker than bags with zippers. In addition to the clasp there is a zip to close the bag for extra security. But the clasp is pretty sturdy and I can't imagine it opening accidentally so I didn't use the zip. There are zipped pockets for batteries at both ends and small items plus a front zippered pocket approx. 3" x 6" pocket good enough for my purposes; does not protect against large blows, but against small blows; if it were a little thicker, it would make the bag thicker and less compact; Build quality is excellent sunrise - it doesn't look or feel cheap. adjustable from fairly short to fairly long, long enough to carry the bag over your shoulder while the bag hangs on the opposite side of your body. Note to Manufacturer: While this is a really great bag, there are three improvements I'd like to see. First add up to 4" x 8" stretch mesh to the back of the bag. It would be helpful to carry the camera manual with you. Second, add stretch mesh to both side pockets, convenient for knick-knacks. Third, enlarge the front zipper pocket.
