Great for compact camera

This camera bag was perfect for the Canon ELPH 300HS. However, take that into account since the Canon is one of the slimmest point-and-shoots on the market right now. Either way, it was great for me since that meant it wasn't going to be sliding around.
A problem with my last camera purchase was a friend dropped it and it got the smallest dent in the world that rendered the whole thing unusable. After that, I wanted to get a high durability bag that would be good for hiking.
Although the picture doesn't show, it comes with a very secure double neck strap with a strong clasp. I feel comfortable carrying around my neck. For those with belts, it has a double velcro belt attachment. It's so strong that I have to add extra force to undo the velcro.
My only gripe is that the memory card pocket is just a tiny, flimsy pocket inside. Too big for a SD card. If I pulled out my camera the wrong way or wasn't careful, I would imagine the SD card could slip out. But it's also big enough to hold an extra battery if you want to do that instead. (Still a nice feature, I just have to be more aware.)
What's great about it: durability, versatility
What's not so great: memory card pocket
I would recommend this to a friend!

Disappointed, never buying again

When I got my ipod touch, I was terrified of it getting scratched so I had purchased this $25 Zagg anti-glare anti-smudge one. More money means better quality, right? WRONG. Having the retina display was totally useless because the super expensive one distorted it completely. Most of these anti-glare/scratch/smudge have complaints for being grainy, so I thought they'd be all the same. This one was so grainy it completely distorted the quality. Visible grain, rainbow-ish look. It's hard to describe unless you see it. (Imagine going really close to an old TV and seeing that kind of grain.)
Don't get me wrong, I put up with this shield for 6 months. It works REALLY well preventing scratches, and I eventually got used to the distortion. However, it started to yellow and get dirty and couldn't be cleaned off. Zagg does have a lifetime guarantee, but I wasn't sure if that was covered and was still a little fed up with the rainbow grain.
A friend suggested buying the Power Support anti-glare/smudge (Apple store), and the picture quality is almost perfect, and the installation was also way easier. I also got 2 for $15. Something about Zagg's spray threw me off. I didn't like spraying a liquid then using a mini squeegee to squeeze it out after putting on a film...
Out of the two, I'm going to guess that Zagg had the better protection. But for the yellowing and quality distortion, it really wasn't worth the money. If I have to replace it that often, I might as well get the cheaper one that is easier to use and has a better quality.
What's great about it: Protection
What's not so great: Distortion of retina display
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
