Canon DCC-90 soft case... A FRAUD!

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 Soft Case - my review Canon DCC-90 is the official soft case for the Canon camera models S2, S3 and S5. There isn't really too much to say about this soft case but I'll do my best. I own a Canon digital camera S5 IS and since the size of this camera is quite weird (not as big as Reflex cameras but neither small enough to fit in common camera cases) I found very hard to find a proper case for it. 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...

Canon DCC-80 Digital Camera Case

Advantages: Extra compartments for accesories
Disadvantages: Not as padded as other cases

...These days, most people own digital cameras. But not everyone owns a decent case to protect it from the knocks and bumps of everyday life. When my friend bought bought her new digital camera (a Canon Powershot A640) a case wasn't supplied, so we embarked on a mission to find a case which could keep her new bundle of joy safe. Although we found cheap cases in high street shops, none of them seemed to fit the camera as well as they should. Although we tried to find the correct case for the camera, we couldnt seem to find one anywhere. She then gave up. So, seeing as it was her birthday the following week, i decided to head home and look on the internet and get her one as an extra pressie. Within minutes of searching, i had bagged this little baby. Adbvertised at suitable for housing all cameras in the Powershot A Series (A710, A640, A...

Nikon D90 - My Next 'Last' Camera

Advantages: Movies, LiveView, 12.3 mpixels, build quality, excellent lens range
Disadvantages: Still quite bulky for casual use. Expensive if that's all you want it for

...in ink now that A4 photos are pin-sharp! I?ve also noticed that photos are now more ?A4? shaped compared to previous experience where they were strictly 4:3 format which suits me fine. Likewise, movies can be shot in 16:9 mode to suit an ever-larger number of televisions. The lens in this ?kit?, the VR 18 -105 zoom comes from the upper of Nikon?s two ranges of digital camera auto-focus lenses, is superb in everyday use. It?s all too easy to read professional reviews that talk of a lack of sharpness at full aperture and full zoom and be put off by them. Then you read that they?re talking about blowing up the outer edge of the picture about 10 times, just so that some nit-picker can say, ?See I told you it wasn?t pin-sharp!? MOANS? Well, not surprisingly for something I?m going to award 5 stars to, they?re few and far between. This...

Getting Your Kid Into Digital Cameras

Advantages: Features Like Any Regular Digital Camera
Disadvantages: 16 MB Internal Memory and No Zoom Capabilities

...No digital camera review on CIAO would be complete without a few entries about cameras designed for kids. After all, kids are almost universally enthusiastic about taking pictures. And parents with a love of photography often pass down their passion to their children. But digital cameras are not always kid-friendly, due to fragile construction, price, or complicated menus and buttons. The newest trend in children's electronics is a group of digital cameras made especially for small children. These cameras are easy to hold, come in bright colors that kids love, and have many of the same features as grown-up digital cameras. Kids love them. The VTech KidiZoom Digital Camera is one of the top digital cameras for kids. This camera was made with fun in mind. Kids like the KidiZoom's large LCD screen and the onboard photo editing options...

Excellent Case for Compatible Cameras

Advantages: Designed specially for the range, durable and has every carrying option
Disadvantages: Not for non-compatible cameras

...I bought a Canon PowerShot A560 Camera and, as one was not supplied, I needed a case to protect it when I am carrying it around. I checked the Canon website and found a chart showing that the DCC-80 soft case was the one recommended for my camera. I found the DCC-80 case listed on Amazon.com for £10.99. However, on the Amazon site, it was listed as being compatible with the A710 IS, AS700, A540, A530, A520 and A510... the A560 was not listed! However, the listing on the Canon site (in the downloadable brochure), along with the fact that I know that the A550 is the same size as the A560, made me press ahead and buy the case. Amazon delivered it with their usual efficiency. What I got in the package was: - the case - a wrist strap - a shoulder strap First of all, although it was not listed on the packet, the A560 fits...

Great Case For Sony Cyber-Shot Camera

Advantages: Wrist wrap, Leather case and good protection
Disadvantages: None

...The Sony Cyber Shot LCSNA is a case for the Sony Cyber Shot digital camera. I bought this to basically protect my digital camera is it's small and delicate. The other reason I got this case was that the camera is small and I just wanted it in a casing so it would be easier to handle and it wouldn't just slip out of my pocket easily. The case itself is black in colour, compact and light in design just like the camera and snugly holds the camera. The case is made from genuine leather and comes with a wrist strap for easy carrying and accessibility when you're out and about. The Cyber Shot logo is also embedded on the outside flap of the case which itself is Velcro for easy access. Main information: - Wrist strap - Black colour - Leather - Dimensions (WxDxH) 10.8 cm x 3.8 cm x 7.6 cm Overall the Sony Cyber Shot LCSNA case is...

Review of Vanguard LIMA 6B Case Camera

Not such a hopeless case.

Advantages: Lots of storage for various extras
Disadvantages: This storage gets filled, becoming bulky

...I bought the Tamrac 5691 with my Kodak easyshare camera, and while it didn't come as part of any package, it was very reasonably priced at around £12. I'm sure that it can be found cheaper in an online store on sale somewhere, but generally the accepted retail price, in stores and online, is around £11.99-£12.99. Looks. As far as I know, the model only comes in black, which is a perfect colour; classy, inconspicuous and hard-wearing against stains. It comes in the form of a main pouch for the camera itself, which fits various medium sized 'fun' digital cameras (i.e. not SLR), including Canon's Powershot S60 and S70, Fuji's E510 and F810 and Sony's M1 and S40. Naturally, anything smaller will also fit inside, and I still use it for my Nikon Coolpix camera, post death-of-Kodak-model. It's not such a snig fit, but it has...

Secure care for your digital camera

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. The main body of the case is made of black reinforced nylon, and is classed as being "water resistant", although I have had it in quite torrential downpours and found it to be completely waterproof. The top cover of the case, which unzips via two Lowepro branded steel and plastic zips...

keeping my camera safe and dry

Advantages: great for underwater photos
Disadvantages: fogs up after 30 mins underwater.

...I bought this underwater case for my Cannon Ixus 400 (which i have also reviewed) from Camerasunderwater.com for £140 including postage in 2004 to be used to take photos of my son while he was learning to swim as my wife thought it would be cheaper to take our own photos rather than pay for the courses own ones. The housing came with an instrution manual, neck strap (never used it) a wrist strap, spare "O" ring seal and some grease. The case is made out of clear plastic, and a glass lens which is screwed to the case and neoprine rubber which is on the inside of the case where the cameras zoom lens fits into, there is also an opaque plastic just over the lens infront of where the flash is on the camera itself which is used to defuse the flash underwater at nighttime. All camera functions can still be used underwater with this...
