Advantages: Sturdy manufacture, with excellent padding and secure straps Disadvantages: A bit too much padding makes it bulky to carry on a belt
Lowepro began as a hobby for a keen climber around 30 years ago, and has since turned into a vast bag and case company. Having revolutionised the strap systems on rucksacks to allow for self-adjustment, Lowepro moved into developing a range of cases for amateur and professional photographers.
The D-Res 25 AW (All Weather) is a mid-priced case, but provides the level of quality you would expect of any Lowepro product. With internal dimensions of 9cm x 6.5cm x 15cm it is more than adequate to house longer-than-most digital cameras with a zoom lens.

Advantages: Nice looking, lightweight, has belt loop too Disadvantages: Canon S5 doesn't fit at all, no extra pockets and too expensive
Canon DCC-90 SoftCase - my review

What stopped me from buying the original case by Canon was it's price. As a matter of fact the cost is £14.55 at the lowest (on amazon.co.uk) while generally can be purchased around £17-25 everywhere else. Also I could hardly find any picture of it online and they are impossible to find in shops so I didn't really fancied spending such an amount of money for something I couldn't even see properly. I am aware that ...
Advantages: Fits the camera perfectly Disadvantages: Boringly efficient
! A bit of searching for the right dimensions, a quick email to the company from e-bay, a quick response pointing me to one I?d missed on an auction (I wouldn?t admit this to everyone but the camera dimensions of 90 x60mm can also be 60mmx90mm!!), a ?buy it now? transaction and in two days I had my cameracase ? all in price including p&p, £10.
What did I get for my money?
