Case Logic DCB-304 Compact System/Hybrid Camera Case (Black)

Nice case

Picked up this bag for a Sony HX100V camera. This review will be tailored to those with such a camera or one of samesize.I wanted a bag that was as small and light as possible for portable and safe transport of the camera itselfand a few must have accessories when out and about.For that purpose it is a perfect fit with one caveat.The camera itself fits snugly and there is room in the top overlap panel for 2 batteries and extra memory cards. One could probably get 3 batteries in there perhaps 4 if they were determined.Inside the case if you place the with the Sony HX100v in place there is some spare room for small articles in the front inside sleeve and along side of the camera.On the outside zipper compartments there is sufficient room for the USB cable and minor errata in one zipper compartmentand in the other I placed a battery charger I purchased (not the one that ships with the camera) that works with 115VAC. The charger has flip out AC prongs and is somewhat compact. There is also room for the 12VDC cigarrete adapter that will work with that charger as well.There would also be room for filters, if one has modified the camera to accept such. Just enough room for some minor paperwork after that and a cleaning cloth.Bottom line a snug fit but not too snug and a small light case to carry around for when you want a camera in a case.The carry strap has clip hooks that seem solid and can be removed if desired. The strap is plenty adjustable, for a six footer like me I had to lengthen the strap almost all the way to carry comfortable about the near hip area.No fancy wide padded strap but the bag and camera are so light I don't expect that to be much of a issue. If it is, one can buy well padded carry straps.There is a belt loop on the back that is beefy and well stitched and wide enough for 4 adult male fingers to fit.Downside is it is not Velcro (TM) removable so if that is a issue you would look elsewhere OR you could modify this one with some creative work to make it a Velcro adjustable belt loop.If you really have to lug around extra accessories it is a easy matter to get some lens like bags to just hang off (with Velcro TM straps) the above camera bag strap. I did that with the battery charger that shipped with the HX100v.Heck, the bag is small enough if you had to you could get a rather large camera bag, stash this bag and your errataaccessories in it. Course that would be nuts.Would the camera survive a drop to concrete inside this bag? Perhaps if only a drop of 3 feet or less but that is justa guess, I surely am not testing that. The bag is somewhat padded but not to a great degree. Best not drop it though.The caveat:THe charger that ships with this camera is a large brick with a bulky cable set and there really isn't room in the case for it, nor if you try to shove it in one of the side zipper pockets. That is a additional reason to get a separate charger for this camera. I suppose one could really try hard to make the charger to fit in the case but that makes it rather difficult to remove the camera quickly and with little fuss. I opted to either leave it at home or if on a long trip will carry it in a separate bag that I attach to this bag's strap.The price I paid here at Amazon was cheaper by a few bucks at least than what Wally World wanted for one. Good deal.

This bag had quite an adventure getting to me, it all started months ago. I first saw it as part of an advertizement here on Amazon when clicked on would take you to a page a Christmas specials and when I first laid eyes on it I thought, "oooo cute must be mine!" After much searching after clicking on the advertizement itself, I came up empty handed. Not wanting to give up I emailed Amazon to see if they would come up with the name of the company that makes the bag. Long story short, they couldn't and told me that it was a product they didn't sell which was weird because they're Amazon. I took a break then on day saw a smaller bag with the yellow square on it (link to said bag show in link click on link to see; http://www.amazon.com/Case-Logic-CPL-104-Camera-Holster/dp/B009PKNMGA/) and thought I've seen that yellow square before. I soon found out that my beloved cute little bag was by Case Logic and once and easily locating it on Amazon, ordered it. Now I know it can take some time for some items to get to me I will wait as long as it takes but this time it's was taking longer than advertized. I waited a few more days before contacting the seller and they promptly refunded me my money which was fine but I really wanted the bag. Turns out, it was lost in the mail. Oh and by the by, if you do have items lost in the mail never to come to you all of those items end up in Atlanta, look to Google for more information.Fast forward to a year later and I'm at work looking as the bag I never got on Amazon then saw how cheap it now was a just reordered it right then. It is now Monday, I ordered it on Thursday and it is not in my possession. I love it, it is sooo cute exactly as I had envisioned it. I will never fault the company or anyone else for my items being lost forever, Fate is just funny that way, it was not meant to be mine back then. Now that I have it I am so happy. I give it five stars because it came exactly as advertized, it super cute and will hold my cell phone perfectly. Instead I give out advice:1. If you have an item lost in the mail look to the Atlanta Lost Mail Auction. If you contact them and describe what you lost I am 100% sure they will have it there.2. Before putting items in your cart, look from where the item is coming from and how many days it will take to get to you via their estimate. Just because it is the cheapest doesn't mean it will fly to you, it may take a month and you HAVE to be okay with that.3. Stop writing bad reviews if you don't get your item, it's not the sellers fault if it's lost in the mail, write the review only after you get it. A review is only for the product itself not for everything that happens around it. Does it look as it was advertized, how good of a quality is it etc, etcI hope my review helps a lot of people, this is a great little bag and even if it doesn't, I still love the bag any way. :-)
