I thought this was a great camera bag, until it slipped off my shoulder and hit the floor, which resulted in my Nikon P500 being broken. The screen was shattered inside, I couldn't tell until the next time I turned the camera on. It wasn't like I dropped it off a cliff. I was at a checkout register and it slipped from my shoulder where the camera case was at hip height. I'm very disappointed in the performance of this case.
This bag fits my Nikon Coolpix p 520 perfect!! I have it sitting on it's side. The other pockets fit my charger, my av cables, as well as an extra battery. It's a perfect size. I didn't want something to big and bulky. I wanted something that was form fitting. This is the ticket!!
We purchased these bags at work for our company cameras for utilization by employees for photo contests. The camera and all the accessories fit together in them nicely.
For my SX 30: The case appears to be rugged enough to survive general travel requirements although, the case protection padding is not as heavy as the LoweP. Nor is the bag finished as well. Of course, lots of additional padding means extra bulk and I chose this bag for general every day operations and its overall 'thinner' appearance. The side pockets are just large enough to fit an one extra battery and one 58 mm filter set with very little room left over.I put the battery charger in my luggage when traveling since it will not fit in this case.For general protection purposes, it is more than adequate and I believe the case would protect the camera from injury from a fall of eight feet.This bag is wide enough to accommodate the new Canon SX 30 with a filter and lens cover mounted on the end of the lens barrel. Further, it will accommodate it in such a way that the camera will sit on its side making it quite easy to grab the camera from its case.
This is an excellent fit for anyone with a large lens camera. Fits the Cannon Rebel perfectly, along with battery storage, cords, charger and lens cleaner rags. Although if you have additional lens, I would recommend a larger more accommodating bag.
