Also, as with all Crumpler bags, it is very stylish and whilst it's maybe a bit more expensive than other brands, you DO seem to get what you pay for with their products.

This pouch is big enough to hold a larger compact digital camera (I use a Panasonic TZ1, for an idea of size). The velcro closing flap features a seperate small pocket for spares such as extra memory cards, or maybe a spare battery (not AA or AAA type batteries, but the small Li-ion ones you get in some cameras).
On the back of the pouch there is a loop for the neckstrap (which is included) or a nice secure double-velcro tab you can use to fasten it to your belt or rucksac. Personally, this usually just gets thrown in my rucksac with all my other stuff (including lots of fabric-trashing climbing gear) and it protects my camera beautifully.
