Pretty Cool

Just got the the Lowepro Ridge 30 for my panasonic DMC-ZS3. It fits nicely with a spacious pocket once you lift open the velcro flap. I tried the lowepro ridge 20 first and the camera actually fit inside like a glove with the wrist strap tucked in but I wanted something with a little more slack. The material is pretty nice and seems durable. Considering it's about $10-$13 you can't really complain. I would recommend this for a DMC-ZS3/ZS1 camera.More detail ...

Cards everywhere...

I have had this case for over a year and have enough SD cards to fill all 8 slots. It does a good job of protecting the cards once I have closed the case. The problem is that when I open the case the cards fall out of their spaces. I'm not an overly violent or strong person and I don't feel that I am being too rough with it. I just have to be very careful when where and how I open it. More detail ...

Great little protector bag for Canon SD950

I debated on getting a gel cover versus a small bag for my new Canon SD950 IS camera. Given the fact that a gel cover does not protect my camera screen from the treachery of my keys and other sharp objects in my purse I opted for this great little bag. It fits my Canon camera with about 1/2" of room to spare on top. I don't mind the loose depth at all. Length wise it is perfect. There is even a small compartment in the front to put extra memory cards. I put a small wipe cloth in there instead. The construction of the bag is excellent. It has sturdy rubberized zippers for easy grip. The clip on the lanyard is a blit flimsy but the actual strap seems adequate. You can always just buy another lanyard to put on the ring to the side of the pouch. The interior seams of the pouch are well finished. There are no exposed neoprene material with messy loose ends. This product is just the little pouch I needed to put my camera in my small purse. Ladies it's not too bulky. I purchased it through the Wireless Central store at Amazon. It took a mere 4 days from order to receipt. I would recommend this pouch.More detail ...

Not what I expected from Nikon

I was preparing for a trip and wanted to combine my laptop and my D70 in a single bag. I had just ordered a LowePro computrekker AW when I saw this Nikon bag.



I figured I would like to have a genuine Nikon bag for all my Nikon gear so I ordered this bag figuring I could return the LowePro.



Although the bag is well constructed lighter and looks great I wasn't impressed at all with the accomodations for my D70. The camera storage is designed for the body with a small lens maybe the 18 - 70 that came with the kit. With the 18 - 200 mounted the camera just didn't fit in the area provisioned for the camera.



The rest of the bag seemed clumsy to access and there wasn't a lot of storage for accessories.



In my opinion the LowePro Computrekker AW is a far superior bag. Although it's a little larger it's worth it's weight in gold. I was disappointed with the functionality of this Nikon bag. More detail ...

Not As BIG as advertised!

A well made bag but the description is misleading....It reads "Waterproof bag holds 1-2 cameras and 3-4 lenses with room for accessories". You could possibly hold four small or medium lenses without anything else and NO accessories. You could carry two camera bodies and some film but NO lenses. But there is no way to put two bodies and 3-4 of the smallest lenses without removing all the padding and dividers - Then you'd might as well throw them all in a plastic sack and save your money.

I bought this for a Digital Rebel and regular lens - a flash and one telephoto lens and two batteries. It is busting at the seams and I have ordered the battery pack/grip to go onto the bottom of the camera so I'll probably have to reorder a larger one.

If you want a good looking canon bag that is small and compact you'll like it and it is well made and worth the current cost just remember it is smaller than the description would lead you to believe.....More detail ...

Great Purchase for Beginners or Intermediate Level Photographers

There is plenty of learning material on the Nikon D5000 in this Nikon School DVD. The instructor is patient speaks clearly comes across being very friendly and informative and you can see his passion for photography by the way he talks about photography. At first I thought I saw this movie and paid for a DVD which was a free video download from the Nikon website. The first couple of scenes are free on the Nikon website the rest of the DVD is not. Even the free scenes have extended footage on the DVD only. I would recommend to watch the movie several times to really absorb the material - I could feel my brain getting full about half-way through the video and decided to split it up over two days and to give myself a chance to practice what I saw. There are plenty of practical examples in the video too once you watch the entire video you can just skip to the section you care to watch again through the menu. This video has become a useful reference for me.More detail ...
